Not sure where to post this, so, I'll just stuff it in here, since I'm an Order player.
I'm just curious about how many truly *new* players there might be in Istaria (less than a month or two in-game, perhaps)....almost every hatchling or biped I encounter is actually someone's alt, rather than being someone new to the game. I ran across Istaria purely by accident, was intrigued by actually being to play a dragon, and quickly purchased a basic subscription...and, I'm NOT regretting that decision! The game is awesome...but, I'd never heard of it, never seen it mentioned in any other forum, or even among the hard-core gamers I know.
I *have* mentioned it to several friends, and most say they'll take a look...is the primary method of "advertising" Istaria word-of-mouth? I *really* enjoy the game, but, the player base, particularly on Order, seems tiny....which is a shame.
