General Discussion

Final Fantasy 7 gave me my start, then came FF8, FF9, then Gunbound, MU,  Maplestory, Conquer and etc.

Only a true NES player would remember this RPG.. the magic of scherezade, one of those 'sleeper' games that was a fantastic RPG.  After that Ultima 2 got me more hooked, then came text MUD gemstone 3 which I played for 7 years.  After that, the graphical adventure started.. UO, then EQ1, then EQ2, then WoW (which I just quit)

Now looking for something new but I'm completely stuck!!

Out of all games, Commander Keen on DOS, first MMO type was a game with almost internet browser like graphics called Dark Ages.

played the Mage firstly...played Mabingo...now playing SOL...  mostly i spend 2 years on one game.. 

WOW is my first game..it's great..however, i have nothing more to dp..due to its perfect..i never like other games now...sad..

You guys are relics!

<snicker>

You completely left out the D&D Games for the C64 <sigh>.

I got started with a novel called, "The Dangling Witness". It had nothing to do with D&D, Consoles, PC's or anything else. In fact, it dealt with the games that the mind plays on itself (wohlolololo)

Haha.

Back to the point...Uhmmm, hmmmm

I'd have to say the tale of Skara Brae. A powerful mage and I make it past the final room, after losing every key member of the party, and slaying our way through thousands in halls of the never-dead-undead...A Bard's Tale.

The Bard's Tale is googable. Nice story. The game was ok, too.

Text based Zork on the Commodore 64.

I also played a wargame (I forget the game) on bulletin boards where teams of players (rulers of kingdoms) made war on players on other bulletin boards.  Again it was using the Commodore 64.

First MMO was Everquest.

i never really got into rpgs a whole lot till i started playing MUD's. but played an assload of diff console games starting with an atari lol pitfall ftw!! lol

I started off playing/reading these http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fighting_Fantasy way back in my very very early teens

Soon after that i wanted something more so i found a little hobby shop back in my home town at the time (Belfast) and found the wonders of the pen and paper rpg, i also got a job in the hobby shop to so i play tested pretty much every pen and paper rpg there is!  

My first MMO had to have been SWG closely followed by guildwars and then city of heroes.

Currently still playing guildwars and city of heroes villians but as always I still crave more.

When  iwas younger - I actually hated this genre - i was very much into sports/athletics and was always doing that sorta thing.

When EQ1 came out (actuallt the time of the Kunark expansion) - a co-worker tried to get me involved in EQ1 and I think Ultima Online or was it Asheron's Call - cant remember.

I really wasnt interested - but decided to give EQ a try - and slowly, slowly got into it.  It took me a while, and also at the time - had a horrible computer/internet set-up.  Little did I know then that this would be my main hobby now and I am 36 yrs old.  LOL

EQ was and is my favorite all-time MMO.
