Bumming Crusade

Post by MIkkyo »

Yup i managed to drag myself away from the game that we all know is gaming herion. The two new starting locations are both very different from the previous ones, there are many new quests and interesting story lines. But not nearly enough change in them, it is still very much a "Go to X kill X return to me with Y" or "Kill X ammount of Y's". That being said there was two or three that raised a chuckle, like dressing up as a tree to ease drop on a gnome and goblin.
The 60+ Content is to me Same shit different day. The only difference being that there is now a flying mount for you to spend 14 hours a day grinding money to purchase and 10 new levels and 10 new levels worth of gear to replace the old stuff that you spent about a year online to get.
But as much as i want to hate this game, there is we all know somthing about World of Warcraft that draws you in, the visuals are as they always were, breath taking. Both of the new races are very well crafted and the /silly emotes are at times funny.
As with all MMONG's its the community that makes the game, and as 5 + million people play this game that also means that 4.99 million are complete wankers. Full use of the /ignore function and its bearable.
I reackon as with any game 5punkers play if people on 5punk got a group together we'd all have a laugh, then again we would do that with Uno.

Is this of any use below level 60? Apart from the new races?

Isn't there new content even for lower level characters? New races to be or somesuch?

After all the 60++ players at work saying "look at my flying mount" and "look at the aceingest graphics evar" (which I was singularly unimpressed with, narf - it's still looks the same 3-yo game to me - they really should have put in some optional bangs and whizzes for those that can do 'em) they kind of forgot I was there and just carried on playing.

When they least suspected it, I asked "so...what are you doing now?" they said "why, I'm killing X amount of Y's, of course".

How I lolled. They continued to ignore me, and I left soon after.

I'd hoped - or perhaps that should be dreaded, that they had put some exciting new stuff in, made the quests more varied, done something to suck ex-players like myself back IN. Thankfully, they don't seem to have.
