I can't wait to see what Diablo 3 is like.

Me either, I've seen some of the videos for it and it looks pretty good.

blizzard would have to pay me a small portion of the 100,000,000 per month they make from subscriptions to get me to play. they could send me a free copy of the game and all its expansions plus no monthly fees and i still wouldnt play it. i dont understand why some people actually buy characters and equipment. what the heck is the point? thats why i quit playing diablo 2. why do i wanna play an online rpg with a bunch of people who bought their godly equipment with a credit card or even worse daddys credit card? how ****ing boring! wow mannn look at that character. what presence. what power. omg would you and your godly armor that you bought from ebay plz help meee! plz my eyes want to witness this character in action. oh plz.

You can't actually buy awesome gear from ebay unless you get it with the character you ebay'd. And it's not hard to weed out ebayers when they all play horribly.

Yeah that's not how the game works.

Total video game addict here. I have played almost everyone of them! Well, I have stopped a bit lately due to college, but I still make time for games. I have a 80 priest, hunter, and mage on scarlet crusade. I am also goofing around on Age of Conan now too. Oooh Team Fortress 2 is also super fun and don't have to worry about the monthly subscription for that!

Hank Scorpio · 07-10-2009, 03:15 AM

I played Diablo 2 for a long time but I like to play alone. I got a free trial thing for WoW but never used it. The whole online social thing annoys me.

Dempsey · 07-10-2009, 03:25 AM

I got to level 60 a few years ago but could not really get addicted. Mainly because I didn't like going to 'raids'. Being bossed around by nerds who take the game too seriously, and standing there for more than half the time waiting around. No thanks. Kind of like Hank Scorpio I just can't get into online socialising of any kind.

The PvP was fun though, if the sides are balanced.

PolarBear · 07-10-2009, 07:09 AM

Yep, i still play. Been playing since before BC so I've got some notches on my belt. I'm a raid addict so needless to say I've raided at every level of the game (60,70,80). My raiding was at its peak in BC, got to see hyjal (before the huge nerfs.

I currently have a 80 Dwarf warrior (protection) and an 80 Human priest (shadow) as well as a couple of random-level characters. The names of the 80's are Vellexise (priest) and Jargann (warrior), both on suramar, if you wanna look them up.

I used to have a major passion for raid tanking but since i left my raiding guild its been fairly difficult to find a raid that will trust an outsider tank. Its also far easier to get into raids as a shadow priest (<3 my shadow priest), so she has kind of moved up and took the spot of my main.

PolarBear · 07-10-2009, 07:11 AM

Oh and i as well cannot wait for D3; D2 is on my list of favorite games of all time so i'm hoping D3 will be just as awesome as it looks.

nihlanth1 · 07-10-2009, 08:10 AM

Im leveling up my own body to lvl 25. I still do not wear any kind of armor. The only new items I possess is a bad-*** goatee of illusion, and the boxing shoes of speed.

hahaaahahah

I have a 80 Tauren Druid[Boomkin], 80 Combat Rogue, a couple of 70-somethings too. I'm really sick of the game actually, the only good thing about it is the social side - playing with people that you know is fun. It really isn't worth the money, tbh.

Aleforge · 07-10-2009, 09:46 AM

SWG (before NGE) -> EQ2 -> AION (beta)

I have been killing time with battleforge (which is free to download and play now)

I played WOW for a few months but always went back to EQ2.

Traci · 07-10-2009, 12:58 PM

I play wow, I quit for a while but just started again. I was super addicted in HS but I'm able to control myself now. :P I have a 80 priest and a few alts that I never can get into leveling, haha. Anyone else on Argent Dawn by chance?

Zeddicus · 07-11-2009, 06:46 AM

I still play, occasionally. My brother is obsessed with Warcraft and has his own multi-boxing setup, where he plays five accounts at once. I guess you could say that me and my brother are a "dynamic gaming duo", since we play almost every video / computer game together, so eventually he set me up with a multi-box setup, and I'd bring my five druids (or dr00ds) around while he'd go around with his five shamans, usually looking for world PvP action, around the time of TBC. He shipped off to the military some time ago, though, so now I'm back to being one character.

Yeah I'm a raid addict too and have raided at those levels you mentioned. I think I like the fact that a bunch of people group up together and work together, and that I'm a valuable member of the raid. My main is a shadow priest too.

flapjacker · 07-11-2009, 08:49 AM

I play alliance on Azgalor (PvP). I play to raid w/ me guildies. 25 man ulduar.

Starting a 2nd job soon though, and won't be raiding anymore. Going to need some PvP partners.
