Is Skyrim worth it?

Personally faster xp (not a different curve like Searyx is proposing) is the only thing that will get me back to playing (beside dropping the xp loss mechanic, which ive given up on).

This is only because i like to pvp for hours on end (AKA bindrushing) and that my guildmates arent always available, hence its often me vs 3+ guys.

Ive done the grind already on blue and its tedious. Im not willing to be penalized because i like pvping on a pvp server. If there was no xp loss on pvp death i would not care about the current xp rate. But add xp deaths on top of that, and i do care. Upping the xp rate would solve this.

This might sound like a QQ but right now the time invested > fun im getting out of the server.

Boosting the xp rate while leaving the pvp xp loss penalty like it is might make me take more than a casual glance once in a while at the server.

Searyx is actually right, the grind for levels 2-10 is beyond awful. I'm talking less than 1% a kill, at level 3, for a dark blue mob.

And this is at the time whenever you have no armor, weapons, fun things to kill, a guild, friends usually, or money.

Transferring some of that terrible grind during the most boring levels to later levels is not a bad idea.

Noob alert. The reason it takes so long is because at level 3 you're killing level 1 mobs, which are a third of your level. This is normal; compare this to level 35 (your level now) where you could never gain experience from something 1/3 of your level. If people can't figure this out then what hope is there for them at higher levels?

Yes, im sure your math will make people who find the grind boring go:

"Oh shit, i didnt get how the math on xp worked, suddenly, this isnt boring anymore!"

I don't even have EQ installed on this new computer which I recently built. I pretty much play Skyrim and Battlefield 3. It's better than I expected, so much so I have zero desire to play EQ.

Yes it's worth it...on PC.
