Had it not been for DAOC, I would still be in Australia now, married most probs.
So all in all a good thing?
DAoC raped the Q3 community, I'll never forgive it for that. Lost so many good players to such a shit faggotry game.
Always avoided MMOs; just seemed like such a blatant time-suck that I didn't even want to get started on one. Plus elves and wizards and all that shit.
I never look at what i'm playing, i look at if i'm enjoying it.
...or the idea of not being able to be as good as someone else in the game not because of a lack of skill, but due to an inability to put in an insane number of hours like them.
I dunno, if it is done right it's excellent. Deus Ex for example
