i loved VG even when it was a piece of crap i couldnt play. so ive left it and come back over the last few years. the game runs smoothly on a gaming machine with high settings on.

i missed the classes the races the crafting the exploration.

and ive found a good social guild: twylighte song

im going to make a character and plant him on Isle of Dawn and will check in at various odd times to offer help, once ive maxed him out to lvl 10 adventuring.

i highly encourage anyone with the 45 free days, or who, like me, will be getting a Station Pass once the price drops, to give VG a try. its not an easy game. but if you like challenges on occasion come on over and play for a while. then you can do like me and go back to eq2 when you want something less difficult.

How is the pop in Vanguard now? I played at launch for a few months but never found a guild I fit into.

couldnt get into it, un-installed after 30 mins and see'ing some bugs. Knowing full well they wont ever be fixed as its been basically shelved of any patch fixing thesedays. Its only still going to keep a title for the SoE access £30 a month thing, losing titles would diminish having this option (as you can pay for 3 diff onlien titles and still have £1.50 left over, or £2.97 if you go for £8.99 ones).

For me, havign more than 1 is not really viable as you can play only 1 at a time, so i tend to concentrate what time i have on 1 online monthly subbed game, when i get bored i will play another for a month or 2 then go back. Most i have had in a rotation has been 3, currently down to 1 right now but soon to be 2 (WoW and Rift).

Population is on the lower side still , but I would highly recommend to join 'Twighlyte song' guild..

It is the biggest guild and all new players are mostly joining it..It always has 35-40 people online at all times mostly and from differrent level ranges(primarily low to mid)...I joined it and having a blast....

Pretty much every 4 months a new guild is cycling to become the "new players guild" to help those trying the game out. But as always, the problem is the game brings in players just as fast as it loses em. So Song will be the place to go for the newer blood to keep them under one roof.
