Real Life has made me take a few days away from the game... naturally I spent some time thinkinmg about the game and how I missed my friends.
So I have kept in touch by reading throught the forums...
...I see much fuss and bother about 1.48 - when the tests haven't even started here yet and the Americans are already up into the 1.50's.
...I read about the excitement generated about the new expansion - but will it really be available to us on GOA?
...I see that yet another RvR has been spoiled by system crashes. I am not sure why we should tolerate the heavy lag during relic raids let alone crashes. The raison d'etre of DAOC is RvR - so it is essential the technical side copes. Is it a similar case with the American servers?
...I have looked at the numbers logging in to play on the English servers - they are falling. No new blood. No chance of a future server three or sufficent populations for RvR servers or role playing server.
...I read about disappointments about the lack of events (what on earth are these?)
There are still some more days of my holiday left and thus more time for reflection.
Like:
£25 gets me the US version of DAOC within the week.
£20 gets me the newest release from Ultima Online - which I have never tried yet... even though it has grey whiskers.
£8 returns me to the wonders of Everquest.
£30 gets me Morrowind.... etc etc
BUT the friends I have made in the DAOC euro servers are amongst the nicest and most dedicated I have had the pleasure of meeting.
It is to those many friends I say that is IF I do decide to change direction (and that's a big IF) I will message you to say where my new personna may be found.
This game has great potential, but I do feel cheated and disappointed by the Euro servers - and I cannot see a lot of future here unless numbers increase and we no longer get treated like the poor relation.
