Pretty sweet RPG so far, only a couple of hours in. Haven't quite seen why so many people have been fapping like porn monkeys over it yet but have been told by plenty you are no-where near scratching the surface of it yet (which I can believe by the sheer size of it so far).
Chose to be a Dwarf in the end, a Warrior Dwraf with possibly the ugliest face ever. Kicks ass in battle, spent ages at the opening of Dragonmaw fighting the wolves and troggs to level up a bit. One thing that is decent is that everyone who I have come across so far has been pretty helpful and not even slightly c*ck faced.
Interface is sweet, the layout was easy enough to get to grips with after the initial "this is just one area, wtf?!". The environments make Lisa Riley's mu*f saddle looking like a toddler's paddling pool.
Controls are easy, the magic areas aren't even slightly geeky from what I have come across so far, just drag it onto the bar and click it when you need it. Haven't really bought much yet but that too seems simple enough to use and from what I gather it nails other MMORPG's for its less geeky approach. For a first time MMORPG'er' I have founs it fack easy to get into and nothing like what I expected (only in a good way though).
Visually it is sweet, the soundtrack is awesome, the presentation is spot on etc etc *fap fap*
Wish I didn't have work tomorrow but life's a b*tch!
I wanted to use Darkshore and the early sections to get up to a really decent level with loads of splosh in my sky rocket to spend.
Name - Cacciatore. Drop me a line, should be on around 4:30ish.
Also, what's your name? I'll add you with my new character - name not confirmed yet!
I am currently in Dolannar as a level 7 - only played for about an hour last night so if you are on from 2:30pm onwards this afternoon I will be around 4:30pm.
If I had stayed with the one character I would probably be level 50 odd by now. Started again around 10 times and each one I have taken between level 10-20.
Tonight WILL be the last restart - either that or you will see me on the news for going postal in the local kids fancy dress shop with a paper rage meter attached to my hand and four 6 slot pouches around my waste with Bernard Matthews Turkey nibblets and some string in each one ready to sell at the nearest vendor.
> Stop trying to change my mind biznitch!
Hoho, some people like Warriors though! I personally do like them, but I can't do with the Rage thing.
I had settled for Warrior again until you said that, the Rage idea was a bit of an ass sack for me as well, especially when you end up spending Talent points in order to lower the amount of Rage required for a set move.
Pah you barstuard, stuck for what to go with now.
I will also plonk my name here when I have it.
