WAR-ing is boring

8 June, 2009 (16:37) | All, Warhammer

I was sitting at the computer, drunk and bored, and had the crazy notion that I wanted to play Warhammer.  So, utilizing the incredible wisdom that is bestowed upon all inebriated beings, I decided to resubscribe.  My first impression, having not logged into the game for a couple of months, was “why did I just waste 15 bucks”.  I tried a few of my toons, did some questing (boring), did some Open RvR (boring) and queued up some scenarios, which shifted from totally crap to actually a bit of fun.

So my overall impression of WAR hasn’t really changed, though I must confess, some of the artistic style was pretty cool, particularly the Dark Elf ships docked off the coast of Chrace.  I also have a bit of a sentimental attachment to the game, having played it since Open Beta and early Headstart.  I’ve been looking for an alt MMO to play while my Age of Conan friends are all tucked away in bed and since Warhammer has an Aussie server it makes sense to play that, but I just don’t know if it will hold my interest.  I’ve thought about playing another alt in AoC, something that’s good to solo, or just using the quiet times to harvest and craft on my mains.  I’ve been trying a number of Free2Play games, but they’ve only really been fun while they’re still new and I’m discovering new things.  Once the newness wears off, after about 10hrs, they tend to reveal themselves as being a boring grind.

Oh well, I’ve payed for a month so I guess I’ll try it a few more times.  Then it’s back to Rock Band.

No thanks. I’ll stick with my host of alts in AoC and wait on the next big thing. :)
