Re: So, what have you been playing in February?

"Shawk" <shawk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> once tried to test me with:

IMHO that's quite different than having people milling around the
area when you're actually doing the quest (and asking you "r u doin
teh emporer?"). And when you get there, you realize the badguy isn't
there because he hasn't respawned yet since he was slaughtered last,
so you need to wait for him to pop back into existence. Massive
immersion breaker.

Me, I really don't want irrelevant people around when I'm doing a
quest. Or their messages. Instances ftw!

As someone brand new to this type of gaming the above is what has
always put me off. Friends have talked about queues to get in the
game, queues to undertake quests, waiting for the badguy or objects to
respawn etc and I've always thought more fool them for wanting to pay
for that priviledge. GW suits me down to the ground and once my
little group have their own copies will be a worthwhile game to have.

Meanwhile.... where did I see that collector with the leather
jacket.......?

THe queues to log in do suck completely, but the other stuff is WAY
overstated. I think I might have had to wait for a mob to spawn maybe three
or four times tops in WOW.
