as of late i have been giving some heavy thought as to deleting my account.
i have considered the fact of just stopping payment for a while, but im not sure ATM.
i turn on the game and dont find but 1 or 2 on my friendslist.
i feel like doing missions but the ones i need require help and too many unavailable peeps.
i fish, i get excited to see the skillups (.1 an hour lol)
i do campain to get exp, to get 75 but yet i dont have time for end game.
i solo and level my npc. he says the same 5 things over and over.
not that i hate doing these things, but when i shutdown the game i feel like
"ok... i got some things accomplished but what good is it going to do for me?"
when my head hits the pillow at night i can say to myself those 4 hours i spent in game could have been to hug my kids, go for a run, open my work s.o.p's or go towards bettering myself as a whole cause frankly i aint getting any younger.
this is not meant to be a flame on the game itself because if it wasnt enjoyable i would not have spent 4 years of my life on it.
the one true thing about the quitting i dont like is the thought of how much already went into it. my hours and days of sleepless nights, broken plans, etc..
in the end i can say SE has gotten the best of me, i dont get to hang my sandy flag in MY living room, i cant wear my yinyang robe to bed or eat the fish i catch. i dont get shit out of giving SE my hard earned money anymore.. i can only think of how many more games i could have bought with it all :/
like most would agree the best part of this game was the friends made from it.
i am breaking down and saying the same thing my friends that quit have told me "i only played the game b/c of the people"
though there are few peeps in game right now i chat with, its not the same as
it used to be.
since march '04 i have played this game. my first ever shell was mightbegiants thanks to poring, my first ever encounter with taru power. then came dirtyhabits with perfectangel.. then kinklink with firebrand. then pheonixpimps, the flock, a few socials and lastly spiritzunleashed with lee and taray. i wanna /wave goodbye to all past friends.
dearest ones that quit already:
jazman
chipallen
nogard
pheona / pheebe
perfectangel
tloc
ones still playing:
kotsu
moink
isolide
zaltana
myrhh
eormanric
poring
canitoch
any other summoners that played lol.
you may see me in game but that will be to strip down my character and send gifts. the deed will be done.
i think i can find that social aspect of gaming in soon to be released games to relieve some of the pain associated from quitting ffxi.
looking forward to a great madden season, the force and some new socom again.
/salute :crazy:
