Am I really so elusive? I just thought you were slow. Right now it’s WoW again, and I am doing non-raid endgame stuff which means that I am invested and will probably stay at it longer, even though Champions calls to me. You know that WoW now allows faction changes so you could join us on the Horde side with your favorite character (giving me impetus to try Champions for a while).
Also, regarding a changing world in an MMO, check out the “phased terrain” thing that is in the WotLK. It isn’t quite a world that changes for you based on your actions, but it hints of that in a very interesting way.
Carl,
It seems there has been a long history of chasing you from server to server, game to game since the days of EQ.
In fairness to you though, I don’t play nearly as much, so sticking on a server for the occasional times I’m available probably wasn’t worth it.
I may well check WOW out again, but not until December. It will probably depend on how I’m feeling about Champions at that point.
As far as a changing world, so far I think LOTRO has handled that he best. It is a little stilted, but with their “chapters” system, whenever you complete certain milestone quests, the world changes to reflect it. Looks like Champions is doing something similar.
By the time I get back to WoW, I may not recognize the game anymore, will take a while to learn to play again.
Doz,
The easter egg was totally wrong. I had been listening to the episode in the car with my wife, luckily I stopped before the end. She would have killed me.
For the record, it was the dog that smelled like an old minnow bucket as she had been swimming in the lake. The Dog, not the wife.
It WAS funny though!
Not a bad episode though I don’t think it quite satisfied me after the long wait(not that that was your guys fault )
The people of walmart scare me, we have one across the street and it’s filled with people like that.
I am all in favour of a reincarnation bank provided I have anything of value left to leave behind. You know someone would want to see if all their onlime gaming accounts could be kept in statis
I actually hate disney but am hoping that they will just let the company run itself and retain the distribution rights, pretty much like they are doing with Pixar.Because people fucking with my x-men makes me very angry.
Also Doz I live in a Canadian city :p with concrete and glass and steel and very few trees. Silly Americans.
They have cities in Canadia? Wow!!Are you sure that glass isn’t just highly polished ice??
/loves our neighbors to the North!
lol, last year we had sheets of ice slide off of the CN tower and come crashing to the ground actually does that count? I don’t remember if anyone got hurt so clearly it wasn’t important.
Canadia eh? Never heard of that, where exactly is that? XP
