What is our purpose of playing? I love playing mmorpgs. I meet new and very different people. Men and Women. I love to watch people interact. Recruiting guilds, forming parties and raids. People always use some method to get their word out i love to see that. I like wondering what will happen next. In raids, what is going to happen next? We will do this, skip that, run away? Tactics. I love it. Planning and thinking ahead. I love doing that because it's more time consuming. It never gets old. You can go into a raid and just run in, or you can plan it carefully and kill every mob and every boss. I don't like going in full strength. For me that is a big waste of time and very unfulfilling. You will die a lot more doing that unless you have some massive people in your group with elite items. I like running raids with strong and new people. New people get a sense of the thrill and the older, stronger people get the items. Of course the new people get items too, but i like it when everything is shared. When i hit a certain level and able to solo raids, i love running people through them. For money, quests, items, whatever it is. I accomplish something for myself and for that person or whomever is going. You also get a sense of respect from that. I don't ask for money, or anything in value. I usually do it in free time, when i get bored of grinding/questing.
When i'm at a lower level state. I always wonder what higher levels will be like. Same thing? Whole different game? That is what usually keeps me going. What is the next step on my path? What is down the road ten levels away? Thinking ahead is a good and bad thing for me. I think ahead for some insight of what is to come, but i also get anxious and just want to be that level already. Which is bad, i don't have much patience which is sad. I wonder if that high level guy in that town will be me in a couple of weeks. I love looking at a person's items. Wondering how he got it that way, how much damage it will do. How is it in pvp? PvE? Wishing i had those items, maybe i would be as kick-ass as that guy or gal. When i get into a guild, i love helping people obtain wishes and dreams. Getting that quest done, getting that item. Obtaining this title. Vice versa. I love receiving help. Most games you cannot complete just soloing it. There will be times you need help. Guilds are always a good resource. Half of the time, you are going to meet some kick-ass people, and enjoy the game even more. It also gives you a chance to see yourself. New people join, asking all these questions, and for once you see yourself and what you were like in the beginning. I always hate people who get annoyed with new kids on the block. We were all new at the game once. We all asked for help, and the people we asked help for could have gotten annoyed at the same time. Very humbling experience for me.
PvP is very humbling for me. When i go into a Battle Ground, i always wait to see who i'm fighting. If i've fought them before, or completely new people. Getting tactics ready. My favorite is CTF. How to get the flag without dying, or how to get it back without getting murdered. I wonder how i will do it, if my teammates will heal me, or even protect me. Tactics is the best way i approach things. With mostly all aspects of gaming. I don't like going head strong. I'm more of a planner. Most people dislike that. I don't disagree with them. Haha. It gets very annoying but it always pays off in the end. No deaths, maximum rewards. I love making things worth it. Just not another raid. A whole new experience. Going different paths, different bosses, a new point point of view? Whoa, i'm rambling. Back to the point.
Wondering about games is good. How will it turn out, what happens when i hit max level? When i get into a guild, when i do this raid. Wondering about the future of the game your playing is sometimes good and sometimes bad. I always do it, to keep things good and interesting. Mmorpgs can be humbling and very mysterious. I hope they are for you all too. I hope you've enjoyed this well... Random read. See you all nex time!
