The journey begins.....finally

Postby Avuthar » Mon Dec 07, 2015 8:00 pm

Hello everyone!

I'm Cody, pleasure to meet you all. I discovered this gem a few years back, but due to own stupidity i
fell to frustration when i could not get the game to open. Finally i decided enough is enough and my
desire to play won me over. After 5 hours of forum searching, info reading, learning and good ol'
fashion trial & error, i have managed to open the default game client!

I know this may not seem like a huge deal to a lot of you, but for me, it means a great deal.
Its now hit the 3am point, although i am eager to get started, i must succumb to my fatigue and rest.

Can't wait to play with everyone and i look forward to the adventures, trials and tribulations.
Goodnight and dream easy,


Sincerely,
Cody

Have fun and good luck (not dying).

Check out the "How do I?" subforum if you need answers to your basic questions. Some pretty great guides stickied there too.

Dying is the only true way of learning.

I hope you die a respectful and educated death. Then resurrect as a new, stronger being.

:D Good luck!

I know the feeling, though luckily it wasn't the case with haven.

Cool. The first time you play is truly amazing. If you decide you want company, check out the Dwarves and Thieves subforum :)

Also, this viewtopic.php?f=42&t=40714

may save you quite a bit of frustration, or of course you may prefer to figure stuff out yourself!
