Yes but anyone remember the original (what we now call) RPGs? Those old text based adventure games. "Go north. Look. Take Knife. Inv. use knife on wife" LoL Then the BBSes had them "online" you can play with/against others. I gues that'd be the original MMORPGs, that they now call MUDs. Of course I do prefer the action, strategy, and sim games more. I think I'll go load up M.U.L.E., or Forbidden Forest now. Grab something to drink while your 1541 disk drive is chewing on things for a few mins. LoL

Entire family played FFIX for a couple of years. The wife and I started out playing it when we first bought it, just to insure it was appropriate for our kids, and we were hooked on it too. Now I play Anarchy Online and Voyage Century Online, which are both free. I'm on the beta list for Stargate Worlds, which goes into beta testing this year sometime. It could be really cool if they do it right, and don't make it just a first person shooter with just a little RPG, like Tabula Rasa is.

That WoW stuff sounds like too much work to me. And the idea of having to pay an additional monthly fee for a game that already costs quite a bit of money on its own is a big turn off.

Call me old fashioned, but I just like to pick up a weapon and explode stuff.

All my friends keep trying to get me to start a Horde toon but I just don't like running around being ugly the whole time. And I don't care what they tell me - HORDE = bad guys and I just don't like being part of the problem.

I thought the same thing, but the amount of time you end up giving WoW, (and you WILL) it really breaks down to less than $0.50 a day. That's cheaper than a movie!!!

Load"Wow",8,1

Run

WTF, it won't fun. Do I not meet system req's? LoL But I have 64k of ram.

Actually, I tried Wow, on a private, player run, server not bad, but I liked Ultima Online waaaay much better.

I got rid of my old account with two 70's. And vowed to quit playing.

Then I saw the pictures of the Dark Knight class in the upcoming expansion and bought the game all over again. I recommend the battle chast if your starting for the first time. I play exclusively on the Server Blood Furnance PvP Orc Rogue 41 SN = cdumpster and climbing fast.

My guild is all right so far just message me for an invite or if you need some help (lowbie gears / run throughs).

Roll on a pvp server. From the moment you leave the starter areas you will be nothing more than cheap entertainment for bored 70s.

I did too, but transferred to pve to make money.. The economies suck on pvp servers, but are great on some pves. Heck, I have been pulling close to 1000g a day without even leaving a city.

Denied outright or you just didn't get one? They're releasing them in phases, so just because you don't have one yet, doesn't mean you're not going to get one. My guild is all mad at me for it.. I'm the GM so I kind of have to be around, so I'm not playing the Beta too much.
