I recently was thinking about how long I’ve been playing the game, and I’m curious about you lot.
I haven’t done an official /playtime in a while, but this year being the 10th anniversary of A Realm Reborn, I recall my days and nights early in 2013 playing the beta tests on my PS3. At the time, I was living with a friend of mine, and we had two TVs in the living room going as we got our temporary characters up to level 20 over a weekend only for those characters to be wiped out.
But it was fun running through that early game, learning the systems, getting reminded why leaving WoW was a good idea (not a single person asked about my DPS! …in maybe my whole time in this game, actually.).
So after ten years of playing my favorite little Lala, I look forward to seeing where this story goes from here.
How about you all? What’s your story?
The first time I played it was in May 2021. I was a Black Mage at first. I sucked at Tanking and Healing. After a few more months I learned how to Tank and Heal. I also switched to Red Mage mainly but Summoner has huge damage output so I temporarily switched main.
I like that the game makes it so easy to try out the different classes, so it’s not so tough to get better at the stuff that you might not initially think you’d like or be good at.
