Time to put back on those comfy old slippers
Hi again, I've returned from the wilderness.
My time away from Horizons has led me to several new and old worlds (mainly EQ2), Over this time I've found that dispite it's many flaws, nothing comes close to what Horizons is trying to achieve and for that, I'm willing to see where this goes [:)]
I've learnt that not everything that glitters is gold. Beautiful and slick presentation only go so far when you realise that a thin wedge of a stick is propping it up. However its still early days for EQ2, I'm sure they can fill in the cracks whilst players are diverted by the shinyness.
I think the biggest thing I missed during my leave, was the landscapes, and what we can do to alter them. Nothing as bland as clicking on an inn door that everyone thinks is their own, going to a loading screen and being hurtled in your own instanced cardboard box. I'm looking forward to owning a plot again and doing something creative in an RPG. I trust my Novian resources are still good tender. [H]
I guess this is also a good place to see if any guild is recruiting on Unity. My old guild has fallen away, and I've been spending the last few days pottering around re-learning the land. This time around I intend to take a more relaxed approach to the game and not burn myself out like last time.
And its also good to see some more Emoticons [&] <-- (was supposed to be a dog!)
