Finally finished downloading the >3 gig game, started it and of course the first thing it has to do is d/l 692meg patch. Ok, fine, another couple hours later that gets done and it is time to see what all the fuss is about. Started playing somewhere around 7pm on Sat nite. Stopped about 1:05am Mon morning. Yes, that is 30 hours straight I played. Addictive indeed. I still keep bumping into things, the toon movement takes some getting used to. Yes OH OH OH Sam, I did choose LLane. Saw the name Tazmaniaque and a few others when I did /who justus. I am currently only using the free ten day trial. If I get totally hooked this week I may have to just suck it up and pay the monthly fee. Although, this may cause problems when cousin Tom finally gets back online and wants to play D2 again, there are only so many gaming hours in a day. One thing for sure that is way different from D2 - you can get 'lost'. lol Need a way to mark your trail so you can find your way back out of the forest. I sure wish D3 would come out so I could just forget about this 'other' game. :( Too much stuff to learn. Let's see, it took me over 5 years to get a fairly decent understanding of things in D2, from what I have seen so far in WoW it may take me ten years (or more!) to really know what I am doing in WoW. Just in case Orion or Ashensugar or anyone else is interested, my 'main' toon (so far) is a night elf hunter named Solosurly who is all the way up to level 12. I had tried a human mage first, but it just did not seem to 'click' with me. -- FUD 4 ever!
