A game is only late untill it''s released, but it''s bad forever.
Playing EQ to the highend is like getting hit in the head over and over. When the hitting stops you start to miss the dizzy feeling. The lack of this "dizzy feeling" will ruin you to other MMORPG''s"
"EQ was once a great game. I wont deny it, but so was Asteroids. And just like Pong, EQ is obsolete by newer game standards."
"elimination of any downtime and you don''t have a chance to really talk. The result is no one gives a crap who you are. It''s so incredibly anti-community building." - Brad McQuid (sigil games, maker of EQ)
Make no mistake, MMORPG''s are not games, they are hobbies. If you have a job, you''ll need to give up watching TV in order to play one. You''ll be better off for it.
"We''re a game that''s focused on grouping and on solo play, you know, more group oriented, more solo play..."

About 4 months to get to 50 in DAoC

Welcome to AA
There isn't much PvP atm, as most people are leveling. Tournaments for lower level brackets have started. I'm excited about that picking up.

AA is fun.
Not much more to say, except that it is a new MMO and inevitably has a few starting issues that need the first patch to fix.
Not a MMO for the hardcore MMO player though, casual play is the name of the game.…
