Adventures of a Dwarf Priest

It is kind of funny when I got on tonight I talked to Inian and found out both of us had been thinking about EQ today. I’m not sure what made me think about EQ. I think I was thinking about the old days.

I’ve played a lot of MMO’s, I mean ALOT. I consider myself very well versed in the genre When In my later years in EQ I was always looking for the next great thing like I often see from WoW forum posters. While doing this I think I missed out on some of the greatness I already had in EQ. I could never find the emotional attachment I had with EQ in another other MMO I tried, at least until I started playing WoW. My experiences in EQ as just as vivid and emotional as some RL moments. I can remember the first time I tracked my little Halfling over to Qeynos. I can remember the firs time I set eyes on the Karanas. I have lots of fond memories of EQ, there was a lot of good in that game. Hell many people still play it! They are on there 14th expansion!

I was never all powerful in EQ, it was a much harder game than WoW, in my quest for the next best thing I missed out on that. When I started playing WoW, I finally found that feeling again. This time I was older and wiser, I am playing this game and enjoying it. I don’t care about what is coming next, except what is coming in WoW. I managed to control my alt problem Well at least to the point of never sacrificing my main. I enjoy the game I have now. I have the same emotional attachments to WoW I had in EQ. I can still remember the first time I walked into Loch Modan, the old Horde raids on South Shore, the first time I flew from Ironforge to Stormwind, the day the AQ gates opened, the undead Invasions of Naxx. I have tons of good memories, many one time kind of memories and more to come I’m sure.

Anyways if you are enjoying WoW, just remember to take it all in, don’t worry about what’s coming next or you might miss out on something you already have!

Onto my adventures, well sort of a quite night anyways. I thought I’d try an instance, it had been quiet the past couple nights I thought it was safe. Of course the minute I try I had a few RL interruptions Ahh well people are always making me wait! Anyways I got in a Heroic Underbog group. It was a great group, most spectacular was the Paladin, he was the tank, and had like 16k HP. He could hold agro on entire groups of mobs, we did not CC whats so ever. He would just have them all beating on him. He was pretty amazing. If I had one complaint it would be he would run off and pull without me hehe He could tank boglords like they were level nothing. The sad thing was is we were just about to the second boss and his guild needed him for Grulls. We couldn’t find a tank and gave up.

Oh well I did a few dailies then went to bed.
