thats right. burgled.

pulling into a parking lot and you see *YOUR* spot, out of nowhere some car takes it from you. burgled.

that odd and ravenous craving for the last piece of cheesecake at midnight. open the fridge and.. its gone. burgled.

minding your own business wooping some boar ass for a quest that never seems to end. not paying attention to your health bar, youre dead. burgled.

running along and that rare named elite spawn appears magically before you. you woop his ass and take his fat loots. burgled.

you get the idea. burgled.

so. thats kinda it. in no particular order. now i need to make a list of things i need to accomplish. pictures will be up soon.

so if you’re wondering why i haven’t blogged, you guessed it, World of Warcraft.

i have been playing with the old blood fist gang, sam, james, rob, trent, the patryns kids: justin guthrie, justin goad, eric avilla, etc etc, and a handful of circle noir members. in fact were all guilded together under the cn tag. we are playing on the pacific realm pvp server: tichondrius.

the game is actually really good. the have done a stellar job at streamlining all the major aspects of any mmorpg. where most other mmorpgs have failed in one aspect, i think its safe to say that wow has done a stellar job. in everquest there was no real driven economy. items were traded and were a player commodity and generally the best items required mass numbers to overtake massive zones. although im sure everquest has changed in the past 4 years, but the first few the game lacked in many areas. the everquest quest system was complete bullshit and almost non existent. the everquest crafting system was also equally pointless.

wow reminds me of the same game pace of anarchy online. i actually really enjoyed playing ao. it was probably one of my better game experiences. most aspects of the gain were attainable. i enjoyed the cyberpunk futuristic theme of the game, i enjoyed their mission system and their implant system was the best. i also loved the profession line and the ability to bump stats as you chose per level.

i had been playing final fantasy xi for so long. ffxi was a great game. i miss a lot of the game. i miss the cut scenes, the auction house, the people. however, a big part of ffxi was highly painful because i wasn’t playing with a strong core of players. in any mmorpg without a core or a group to play with, the game itself has to pull its weight. eventually when that subsides you pretty much stick with a game for its people. too many of my good friends were investing in wow so i made the change.

anyhow, just wanted to give a quick update to where ive been lurking. i have so many more things to post about that have been on my mind. ill make a much stronger attempt to take the time and do so.

if you’re looking for a new game, i highly recommend wow. i know eq2 is out, some say its good, most i hear don’t like it. anyhow stop by tichondrius and gimme a shout if you need some help, or if you’re on another server, i hope you’re having as much fun as i am!
