For real this time.
In the past, i would just stop paying and be like ehhhhh i am done. Then a few months later i would start dreaming of eq at work, and i would eventually just start secretly playing behind my wifes back.... 3 times now.
A few months ago i was in a raid for almost 6 hours, was up until 4am... and i won the roll on an awsome item....... 5 minutes later the server goes down for some reason. The gms ended up doing a reset for like 15 minutes prior to the server crash. I lost my item and after much debate with the gms, i did not get it back. I was so mad, sooooooo mad.
I felt as if i could have taken somebodies life if they were in the room with me.
Then i thought to myself.... wtf is wrong with me, this is not real life, this is stupid getting this mad over something that is not even real. So i logged into both of my guilds in eq1 and eq2.. said goodbye. I then went to each of my 10 characters and deleted them all. Now i have nothing to go n back to. I called Sony and told them to close and delete the entire account, but of course they wouldnt because the punks wanted me to be able to come back and not have to pay for the game.
So 2 months now and not even a flinch of wanting to go back. I guess with the 3rd baby on the way in 2 months, and moving... my mind has been occupied and it has helped.
I occasionally play eve online, but that is perfect for the casual gamer. The skill training is totally different than eq. In eq you have to sit there and grind and use your skills to keep them up, which keeps you sitting at your desk. In eve you go in your menu, right on a skill, click train.. If it says it will take 5 days... ok i log back in in 5 days to choose a new skill. I am training 1 right now that is taking 28 days. Also, if a skill train takes you past your payment date, it will keep training. If you were training a skill that took 100 days(not sure if there are any), you could just not pay for 2 months, come back and it would be done.
Lets see what else do i play.. just started assassins creed. I play carmageddon 3 with my wife, i play worms 4, pocket tanks lan lol.
My new hobby is 3d art. I use maya and vue to make 3d landscapes and scenes.
