Final Fantasy XI Then...

Well good to hear you're back too Wedge. What race/nation did you choose and if you stick with it long-term, what are your job plans?

[dataDave]

Moot and Apa on WoW? Good men!

Are they PvE or PvP? Horde or Alliance?

I tried conversing with him about it but it all sounded very dull and I just nodded along pretending to care

He spends a lot of time riding a winged beast of some sort. 99% of the time I look over his shoulder whilst he's playing he seems to be flying somewhere.

I'm currently back on "thinking about diving into WoW mode" after my recent "vote of no confidence" in FFXI lol.

While I'd be keeping my FFXI account active if I did "migrate", most of my evenings are still spent running aimlessly around Whitegate or BST lvling, boring myself rigid with farming or finally Nyzul Isle once a week, thus the reason for the move.

After close to 5 years I think it's time for a bit of a change of scenary. I've gone ahead and ordered a copy of the WotLK collector's edition (which will be ebayed if I have a change of heart before launch) I can't believe what I've seen of some areas in WoW based on screenshots, some of the areas look really special and unlike FFXI offers a great deal more freedom due to lack of invisible walls, which in all honesty no-one likes.

Screens, gfx and art are the least of the best bits.

Giving other people pure ass-kicking is where it's at. It's the most rewarding experience I've ever felt from a game. So much so that playing anything other than a AAA retro title is totally lifeless to me now.

Also go to vurtne.net and check out some of his vids.

You still playing Fallows? Might be looking you up next month if so.

The problem with WoW and all modern mmo's is they seem to lack the social comradary of the old EQ and FFXI, its so focussed on PvP which is something im just not fussed about, I tried it on Age of Conan and got pissed off while trying to do a quest some dickhead that was higher lvl just kept stalking me.

I would say the main thing I have missed in new mmo's is the reliance on other players, teaming up to accomplish things, too much can be done solo in these new ones.

You must all be so disappointed that it wasn't me! Don't cry people, I understand.

Did you delete your original character Wedge? I could never have done that!

Nope, its still in use by Toxicforce, he's offered it back but right now I just wanna try starting again.

nooooooooooooo I can't play!

From playing FFXI, thus quitting the gym, then quitting FFXI for WoW... I lost 4 stones and was told by various people I looked to be on the verge of death.

I think getting some weight back and sorting my **** out is more in order atm. Just on with some PSone stuff and looking forward to Castle Crashers/Raiden IV/Megaman 9 at chrimbex.

Once you start choose Al'Akir realm. It's one of the best.

You know, it is possible to play for short amounts of time and not be hopelessly addicted and being on the verge of death?

I voted everyone comes back and we dig out the old rargh pearl and go ptyin in the dunes

I'd be up for that - it sucks how we've all scattered across into different end game shells
