MMORPGs are an evil, insidious corruption which creep into our lives and devour all our free time with adventures that have no true end. Not that that's a bad thing, of course. I love a good online RPG.
My game of choice is Guild Wars. I deliberately selected it over World of Warcraft for a number of reasons: 1- Guild Wars has much lower system requirements than WoW. 2- Guild Wars actually gets regular expansions (or to be precise, whole new campaigns) released ON TIME! 3- WoW is so notoriously addictive that it has literally ruined lives, and all I want is good game to play. 4- Guild Wars is FREE of any kind of online fees. Wonderful game. Truly wonderful. Looks pretty too.
OK, so I've been spending the last 20-odd hours of game time just saving up for a suit of 15k Kurzick armour for my warrior/necromancer. OK, so I haven't moved forward in the storyline of any of the three campaigns in ages. OK, so my guild is pretty much a hollow shell with practically no activity. Doesn't matter. I love this game, and 2 hours of 12 on 12 alliance battling this evening reminded me why.
So if you're ever online, keep an eye out for my characters, Arcane Azmadi, Kurimoto Takeshi, or Vahrshak Azh Mahdii. And if you're a Luxon, I'll kick your sorry ass on the battlefield.
