Too Old To Play What I Want

[Deathrydar]

Is anyone else in this situation? I don't have the time to play what I want to play, so I am a little upset, but I have still come to terms with the fact that I just don't have the time to play what I want to play.

For example: I have always wanted to play a Rogue. The issue with them is that they are highly group dependant and I will be out-leveled by the population of Green quickly due to the amount of playtime I will have.

Due to that, my choice in classes is minimized to the classes that can group and can solo, leaving out some of the more interesting classes in this era of the game.

Anyone else?

Green will not all level up in one massive cohort. Within weeks you will see toons in every level range.

Making sure you can both solo and group is always a flexible position to be in. The difference between soloing for slow XP for an hour versus looking for a group for that hour is huge.

I feel ya -- however, I don't think you should be worried about being "out-leveled." Maybe by the first wave of power gamers/raiders, but I think there will always be people to group with at lower-mid levels, especially in Najena, Uguk, and Blackburrow/CB. Even if it's just the power gamers getting their alts jboots by the time you ding 25 [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

The thing about groups, though, rings true to me. That limits my class selections for sure, as my life doesn't really allow for more than 45 mins or so of playtime at once.

Too old? How old is too old? They have a curfew on video games at the old folks home?

Too old as in, I have to be in bed by 10pm to get up at 5am for work.

You're not too old, you have a life. Glass half empty🙄

I was debating between Druid and Paladin for this reason. Druid has so many conveniences and solos well so it'd be ideal for my limited playtime. And doesn't have that horrid experience penalty.

But in the end my desire to play the class I really wanted to play won out. If I'm a lowbie forever, so be it. I've been way more excited for Green since I decided to say "screw it" and go with Paladin.

Then I was too old at 18 working full time to power game. Computer and 85 300zx wasn't going to pay for theirselves.

Not sure why the focus of this thread has become the word "old".....wasn't the intention.
