Just a thought I had, hear me out and post your thoughts.
I've read a number of topics here and there on MMO sites where someone posts "Is it too late to start playing this game?" Most of the time the answer is no, any time is a fine time to start playing the game. The content really doesn't go anywhere and it usually rather quick to catch up.
However, if real life was an MMO, what would you think then? "Is it a good time to start playing life?" I would answer no. All the land is taken and you have to PAY TO PLAY. There are no guarantees that you'll get your reward at the end of your quests. You have to spend your first 18 levels going through the tutorial and there is no way to bypass it. Even after that, you haven't been given enough information to really know what to do next.
So, what do you think? Is now a good time to start playing the MMO Life?

The difference is life isn't a game nor represents one, once you figure that out then your ready to step out into the big bad world.
Life is what you make it, if your determined and focused on what you want out of it then you may achieve what you want, one step at a time though, small goals to reach the ultimate goal. If you don't seperate game from real world, then you are going to run into problems.
And no, its never to late.
Depends how you define winning it, $10 a day keeps you fed and housed to a level where you can have enough children to increase your genetic presence, in the long run that's more success than a rich couple in manhattan with one kid.

You could be making $10 per hour in Manhattan and not even be able to afford to live in a cardboard box.
People need to look at the big picture before making posts like thekid1's. That $10 per day is probably giving those people a good standard of living for their area. Making ten times that will barely give a person a poor standard of living in most of the United States.
The Pros;
Graphics are GREAT.
No lag.
No instancing.
The Cons;
Monthly subs require a terrible grind.
It's heavily P2W.
Lots of non-consensual PvP.
No raiding or dungeons.
The quests are dull as hell.
Only Ironman mode available...
I have heard there are dungeons available if you know where to look, but I dont thing people visit them to kill dragons.
lots of ninja looting too lol
I would argue life is a game - a very silly game where no matter how well you play you end up dead at the end.
You forgot Perma-Death is turned on.
The upside of Life is that it is filled with market fixers, exploiters, hackers and cheats and you can get away with any of it just by bribing the enforcement or governing npc's.
Its really easy once you realise that.
Right, so you're all gonna go through this topic again, writing the exact same shit that was in the other thread?...
*Slow clap*
Good one guys, good one!
Since I'm an altoholic, this game has nothing in it for me, not to mention it looks pretty lame and I heard bad things from the beta as well. Only one alt, without char.slot purchase in the store, c'mon, it's 2013 already!
So I think I'll skip this one. Oh, wait...
I've played it, but there were a lot of bugs. My character shakes a lot and isn't much much to look at.
I made it to level 52, so I might as well try for endgame.
Scoobin it up on the daily.
The Life MMO has that hard core full-loot PvP that so many seem to crave.
There are pro's... Everything is available in-game, no cash shop with outside currency.

If a butterfly learnt to speak, to live in human society, paid its bills, had a job, lived in a fancy house and married a human, is it human?
Now what if that same butterfly knew how to write code better than any human and had years of experience in the game industry, would that make it a game designer?
If u wouldn't let a construction worker design your house, then why let a programmer design your world?
Life: Hard Mode or GTFO.
