End of an era ..
bgk on Feb 15th 2003
Those of you who know me, will be aware that I often rant on about a game called Everquest (EQ). EQ has been part of my routine (life?) for nearly 3 years now, I’ve spent over 150days (yes … 150 x 24 hours) playing it.
The past few weeks I’ve been thinking about giving it up. The biggest problem being what would I do instead? Well I decided today to cancel my accounts and give notice to my guild that I will no longer be around. I feel now that I’ve “finished” the game, nothing I else I can do will give me any additional satisfaction.
So what will I do? Well I got my bike out of the garage for the first time in 5 months today and went for a ride … I guess there is lots more stuff that I used to do .. that I can still do.
In the short term, on the entertainment side, I guess I can try out some of the other games out there, Unreal2, Age of Mythology, C&C generals. However ultimately I’d like to find something as challenging and entertaining as EQ was. I think I may have to wait for Brad to announce what he is working on.
As for current/coming soon MMOGs, SWG looks interesting, I’ll certainly give it a try. AC2 lacks content (but has potential … ). DAoC .. not really sure, didn’t like it when I tried it before.
Well, Fairwell Norrath.
