About online games, and you people.

[sparksol]

The Spark is wondering, that out of the people that reads this (and I read more than just the people who read mine, of course), who plays games online? Which games do you play, and if servers/shards/worlds/etc. are involved, which ones do you play on?

Sparksol wishes to know this information, that the Spark has a better chance of playing with someone known to the Spark. Sparks doesn't know why Spark is speaking third person.

For my part, I play a few games. I play Kingdom of Loathing, and ROSE Online occasionally, and have just - after breaking down slightly - Runescape. Once I played Ultima Online, but it's been years, and I'd rather not play that again without other people, for various reasons which I won't go into unless people ask about it during a time I happen to remember what the reasons are.

Second Life is out, mainly because of my dial-up copnnection. I've seen something called Project Entropia, but it's probably out forme since I'd have to effectively download 600 MB of "updates" on dial-up. Which is too bad, it looks pretty interesting.

Noting how many people have talked about it, I've been looking around at information about City of Heros(Villains) and at World of Warcraft (which, out of the two, I lean towards). I've even looked at Guild Wars (which also has a slight lead in that it's free to play.) Seeing as I could only afford one at most, and could only play sporadically anyway, I'm wondering what I could get into that I'd have a good chance of playing with people I know, however tenuously.

I'd try to get games going with people whose faces I know, but strangely enough, almost none of them play anything online.


Edit: Found a neat game some of you may have already heard of.
1000 Blank Cards

Oh, I forgot to mention. Kingdom of loathing has no multiple servers, I usually play on ROSE's channel 1 or 2, and on Runescape I usually play on world 63 which I think is in Seattle.

Online gaming isn't really my thing, but I've played a bit of NWN online. It was kinda fun, I guess.

[guido-jacobs.livejournal.com]

I used to play a game at www.lotgd.net...or was that .com? Oh yeah, I also play battleon.com...I think. I haven't played since January...

Hey, this is Kenny, kbhoyt. I got a new journal because the 3 year old one had gotten stale. Add me back, if you want? If you don't want to, I won't be upset at all. :)

Sorry, I'm afraid I don't play any of those. Then again, I don't play online games much at all.

Gosh, I haven't played ROSE in a loooong time. XD; I hear that iROSE is also going away soon?

Haven't played Kingdom of Loathing in quite awhile either. In fact, lately I can't play any online games, with the moving and the shaking and the whatnot. ;P

FFXI (Ramuh server) - going to go back to FFXI now that I have a job~ this will be when I actually have internet connection in my room (well, I'll go back to all games when I have that XD; )

RO (two naughty private servers)

Mabinogi - I've been getting into drooling over foreign games lately over at onrpg.com and one of them happens to be Mabinogi. Have a Korean main account now thanks to that little girl who's amazed I'm an adult playing games. Really wanna try it out. ;_;

MagiKnights - this is a 2d free game I was playing before I moved. It's okay if you have a lot of time to kill. But like onrpg.com, it has a lot of "omg netspeak blow-a-gasket-whenever-something-bugs-you" kids.

Gaia Online - still don't know whether to call this a game or not.

Progress Quest - ditto, but still fun. XD I like checking every morning to see whether my two rivals are ahead of me, even though they don't even know who I am or know they're my rivals. >D

I think that's it~

[achan.livejournal.com]

Oop! Just thought of some more.

Trickster - just got this Japanese game before I gave up my comp. It's pretty darn cute. ^^

Also would like to try Tales Weaver, but I think all its servers are pay to play. ;_;

"Dave, what are 'Third Reich Points'?"
"You're not cleared for that information."
"Well, how many do I get?"
"You're not cleared for that information."

I've been meaning to download Rose Online, but I've already got enough games going around. I don't play as much Runescape now (I'm on server 37, the second Toronto server, but like to go to ones where there're less people). I still do play Kingdom of Loathing, but mostly to try to get the trophies prior to Ascension. I'm hesitant to join/buy new games, mostly because I know I'll lose interest eventually.

I really must try to play 1000 blank cards. The problem would be actually buying the index cards and cutting them up.

Every time I play a game online where players can play against me I have my arse handed to me. That being said, Starcraft and Warcraft are fun.

I stopped playing ROSE when it started crashing my computer again. That said, if you're ever on WoW, try the Feathermoon server. I've got a few characters there, including Hadoru, a Night Elf Druid who's just gotten his seal form, and Trancisstor, a Gnome Warlock who's also an Engineer and can make cute Mechanical Squirrels given the right materials.

We're getting local ROSE servers. Apparently Gravity is taking a shine to the local game company.

I don't play Online anymore, but a while ago I was playing Ragnarok Online, used to be on international, than local, than private. Dabbled with Runescape a bit. I also played much Utopia.

You should totally play World of Warcraft with me :D

[sparksol.livejournal.com]

Once my computer is actually capable, I just may. []_[]
Provided you tell me which server(s) you tend to be on, of course. =)

[sparksol.livejournal.com]
