Losing motivation... suggestions?

[Roth]

I'm a 29 shaman on teal right now and honestly I've been soloing probably the last 5 levels which has been fine but slow and i'm getting kind of bored. I sort of want to go back to grouping but I don't know if I have the motivation to grind. My main issue is this - I know at 50 basically all there will be to do is lower guk, sol b, or farm random names. A lot of the content that really excites me isn't going to be out till kunark... which is a year away.

I kinda get what they were going for with the time gated release, but I feel sort of uninterested in the lack of level 30+ content. At the same time, I really want to be part of the green/teal experience. I have been waiting for this server forever, and I wanted to be a part of it because eq in its original form(corpse runs, weaker player characters, and no maps) means a lot to me.

I'm sort of thinking of rolling on mangler for luclin, which I really hate doing so because I hate eq with the massive group bonus, no corpse runs, and op classes. Thoughts/suggestions?

Don't feel bad about taking a break. Getting to 29 this quick is insane.

Just do other stuff until there is more content.

Either take a break or go where nobody goes like permafrost, cazic-thule, sol a, mistmoore. I probably forgot some. Oh some part of najena are also at that level

I'm no expert on EQ but Kurnark introduces some areas where you'll be able to catch up too? So it's not like the end of the world if you're not 50 when it comes out right?

Well, it's a year away and I'm the type of person that LOVES fresh servers. South ro being packed with 60 players and being in groups with all trolls/ogres was one of my favorite experiences. So that's mostly why I feel bad about quitting right now. I like being part of that initial rush.

I felt the same way.
Then I went to highkeep hold,
now I love solo.

Soloing makes me want to quit too. What is it that you feel the most satisfaction doing? Sometimes I used to get too caught up in the race to 50 that I completely forget the reason I’m playing is for enjoyment. And I don’t find playing 20 year old mmos alone that enjoyable. Maybe for an hour occasionally but not much more. I know the mechanics, there’s no mystery. I guess what I’m saying is to make sure you aren’t distracted by things that are unimportant. Identify what you enjoy and do more of that.

Keep at it guys soon everyone will be in one of the 3 level 40+ zones and it will be way better!

I want you people who seriously spend more than 3 hours a day playing a video game you've been playing for 20 fucking years go look up the definition of "insanity"
