Quote:I too have recently gotten back into DAoC, sheerly because I must have a morg in my life. I've discovered two things about it:
1.It's not as boring as I remember.
2.If you stay far, far away from sites like the Camelot Vault et.al. that are totally 100% full of whining, bitching people complaining about how awful their class/Mythic/etc. is, it makes the game much better.
I quit DAoC about 9 months ago in a huff, pissed at a couple problems with the game. I still kept in touch with DAoC though, reading the Herald, reading my server board, etc. I realized a couple weeks ago though that I couldn't even remember the reasons why I quit that many months ago.
I just renewed a week or two ago and have not regretted it. In fact, my only complaint is that my main is in pre-SC, pre-SI gear and a full MP suit of scale + weapon + shield, fully OC'd and with procs pushes 30 plat :P But I can't really blame Mythic for my gear woes :)
Quote:I'm quite guilty of ripping Camelot for its failings, but I think that's because the damned game is so close to greatness.
It truly is the best MMO on the market right now.
Quote:What server do you play on, Mith? Tristan/Midgard and Guinevere/Hibernia here. Albion? Ummm... well, I'm not a fan.
Hib/Palo is the location of my main (a Warden) and I used to have a bunch of alts spread across a bunch of servers, but recently did some "spring cleaning" and only a few survived the mass deletes :P
I do have a baby Cleric on Alb/Guin though and have been thinking of dusting him off and taking a couple jaunts through Abermenai.
Quote:Do you think it is worth getting into the game now? It would have to be picked over morrowind though (Playing two RPGs at once is quite dangerous).
I've never played Morrowind before (though it does look like an incredible game) so I can't really comment insofar as that is concerned, but IMHO DAoC is the best MMO on the market right now.
Quote:If you or Jonathon would like to group up, I'd most certainly buy it.
We can roll chars of Tristan/Mid and Jonathon can PL us! Dibs on the Spiritmaster! :lol: :ph34r:

I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.
