Hi! So my partner and I met in EQ2 waaaaay back in 2005. Well, he booted it up the other day, and now he's playing again. And then I stupidly decided to see if I could activate my old account and voila, I still have access. Was just wondering if anyone ever played it at all anymore?
My sister and brother in law did... I'd already been addicted to MUDs and avoided EQ (Ever Crack lol) because I knew I'd get hard-core addicted... Is EQ2 still around? We've been toying with the idea of some of us at the forum meeting up in a new MMO...
Yeah, it is still around (I know, I was surprised too haha) It's got a free to play option, but you get a pretty good amount of stuff if you subscribe to it. I logged in and saw my gorgeous 85 Coercer haha. Ahhhh those were the days.
Those feels. I'm hoping to transfer them to my novels. Working on it. Also, now that games are my job, I'm trying to do a bit more.
My problem is that I tend to do everything all or nothing. Playing an MMO - MUST LEVEL, MUST KILL IT ALL FIRST Watching Netflix/reading a book - Just one more episode/chapter CONSTANTLY Writing - Must write, must finish Editing - Must get it allllll right LOL
Well, that's what you want the readers doing too... Just one more page... One more chapter... One more scene! Heh.
I had one lady (on romance) say she was late for work because she wanted to finish one. Haha. Probably one of my favorite reviews.
I played EQ2 for a while and concentrated on crafting bows. I was making a fortune but it wasn't all that much fun. EQ on the other hand... was incredible.
I adored EQ... I played from 1999 through to 2004. Sadly I was playing from 1am through to 9am, running to work, getting home at 8:30pm, and only getting 3.5 hours sleep before logging back in haha. Something had to give, it was EQ
I met someone once who got me into EQ2 for a minute, but I didn’t find it all that enjoyable. Probably because I lacked friends that played it, and the person who got me to buy it abandoned me shortly after I bought it.
Yeah EQ2 would have sucked without my guildmates. But I tend to talk a lot, ... like a lot. And I have an accent which people tend to like lol
