  • I guess I'll go try the trial of EQ2 then, hopefully it goes well. If not, I guess I'll read a lot about FFXI to see if I like it since there's no trial. Thanks for the help guys.

• • LFG with skill

  • I looked around the FFXI site. Is there a trial version at all?

• • LFG with skill

  • Guess I have more requirements than I thought. Eve looks fun, but I don't think my wife would enjoy it. We want more ground based (she won't like flying). Also, PVP doesn't interest us as much. Yes, we will engage in it every now and then, but don't want it all the time.

• • LFG with skill

  • As the subject says I'm lookin for a game that requires skill. Let me give you an example.

    Everquest:  Group: Enchanter (me), Monk (brother), Warrior (noob), Cleric.  We were in our high teens fighting orc legonaires. We pull 4 of them and our Warrior goes afk (without telling us, he just sits down while these 4 guys run at us). We suddenly realize we have 4 guys coming at us and the Warrior is gone. My brother tanks one (1), I mez one (2) and mind control another (3) to have him tank (4). Cleric busy healing my brother. 3 dies, so I mind control 2 and have him finish off 4, then help with 1. 1 dies, release mind control and finish off 2. /boot warrior.

    So yeah, basically I want a game where you can be overwhelmed, but with some quick good playing it works out (but maybe not all the time). Something that will create good stories. My wife and I want to play this game together though so it needs to be fairly easy to learn the basics. I've played EQ, SWG (when it was good), WoW, Maple Story, and Puzzle Pirates (fairly amusing, but quickly boring). 

    WoW is too simple for me I think so we quit that. Tried the trial for EQ, but the UI is annoying and the graphics aren't that great anymore. So yeah 1) skill, 2) decent graphics, 3) fairly easy to learn.

• • Help with trial

  • Yeah, I figured it out. For some odd reason my old account still had a 21 day non-recurring subscription left (which is odd since I haven't played or used the account in years, but whatever). I just created a new account to try the trial with and that fixed the problem.
