So just started up...

[Benedict]

Hey guys just wanted to introduce myself as I think I will be dropping by and playing the game quite often. Just thought I would share my first impressions.

I logged into the city and got lost for about an hour. I attacked a guard on accident and died instantly and spent an hour finding my corpse in a city I didn't know. I finally decided to look up a map and found my trainer... and attacked him on accident. I spent some time trying to level up my swimming.... until i realized i was stuck at 10 swimming after a long time of swimming around for no reason apparently.

Finally deciding to venture out into the world as a young necro, I left the gnome city and turned to the left... into a person who hates necros and was killed. I can back to get my corpse... and was killed again. Some time later i was able to recover my corpse and tried to kill me a little coyote without conning it.... and well you know the rest. I decided to type in OOC if anyone knew a trick to leveling a caster. They said that i had at pet at level 1.....

To conclude, I think EQ is a cruel, unforgiving, and harsh mistress. I find it confusing, irritating most of the time, with a hard to use interface and clunky mechanics.

I haven't had this much fun in years [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
