Reps: 446 (power: 0) | | | yeah i know, it's hard to maintain interest when you can't even play the game. i dont necessarily mean an official guild, just a couple of people who are excited about the game and want to play with some fellow christians, so that we can share the same values

ROFL, yeah I saw you complaining on the forum that you couldn't ride your bantha.
Poor baby

Reps: 11 (power: 0) | | | I've been on EQ for several years now, Saryrn Sever. I have a 65 monk, 60 necro, and a host of lvl 50ish toons. I love EQ for its depth (thank you VI, the people who actually made EQ), but I can't stand SoE for the bad CS, constant nerfs, lack of testing material before it goes live, fewer and fewer "GM events", out right lying to customers, etc. the list could go on and on. So, EQ2 is a definate "NO!" for me.
I beta tested Starwars G. Let me preface this by saying that I'm a die hard SW freak. My idea of a good time includes sitting around eating pizza with friends and seeing how much of the original trilogy we can quote from memory. So, I started beta testing SWG in beta phase 1. I hated it. I went back to EQ since I had friends and guild there, but would still mess around in beta... it was horrible up until release, and I knew I'd never buy it. One of my close friends said "If YOU don't like a Starwars game, I KNOW I won't like it." I'm not going to convince anyone not to buy EQ2 or SWG, but I will say let me warn you. Stay away from SoE products.
I played Dark Age of Camelot for about 3 months. Great game, but at the time I was playing it, they still hadn't finished the "end game" portion and nerfed xp from lvl 40 - 50 to slow player progression and to buy time. Not the most endearing move, but I wasen't too concerned. Then they nerfed my bezerker, who I had been playing with my roommate (who was playing a healer). I figured if I wanted to get nerfed, I'd stick with EQ since I still had a guild full of friends, so I dropped DAoC.
Note to any gaming companies trying to break in like Blizzard (WoW) and Square (FF XI): People have years invested in their toons and lots of friends in EQ. You will not pull many people away from EQ by launching unfinished, buggy, untested games which lack depth and nerfing things to oblivion within the first few months.
I also played Earth and Beyond for about 2 weeks. It had no depth and I personally found it boring.
I'm going to try FF XI tomorrow since many of my real life friends from EQ are trying. I am trying to keep my hopes low, but it is hard. I'm really hoping FFO can pull it off. WoW will be my last hope if FFO messes up (though I love Sqaure and all the FF games) but WoW isn't even in beta yet. It looks really nice so far, though |

Hah... no kidding. They're just so fuzzy. I'm settling for anything nowadays. All these bugs, patches, and waiting periods avoiding the next fatal NERF.
