Hey, as I said, I love me some dragon slaying. I played EQ and EQ2 for 4-5+ years. I've played WoW off and on since lauch. They're fun games but they don't have a lot of depth to them. That's why I played EVE for well over 3 years (until an update left my computer unable to run the client... could kick myself for not building a system around an Athlon 64, but was on such a tight budget..
) There's lots to do in EVE from day 1, same with HnH. You just have to know what you're capable of doing and enjoy the ride.
What's the phrase? You can't have your cake and eat it, too. I'd love it if my MMORPGs played more like PnP games, but unfortunately, they don't. It all seems to be nothing but grind, grind, grind. Maybe we could make a movie about the MMORPG phenomenon and call it Dr. Strangequest or How I Learned to Love the Grind.
