Squats man. Very few women actually squat, and when they do, their bodies become godlike.

Definitely for the sake of time-sink--

I also believe they are a great vector for cooperative gaming with friends, but are by no means exclusive to those ends. Mostly time-sink.

Incidentally I found a new SWGEmu server yesterday

It's colorful busy work with a chatroom. So it's kinda like school except you don't have to deal with the reality of actually interacting with the human body.

That being said, I don't think it's anymore of a waste of time than school or work since it's the same mind numbing shit. Some people are actually smart enough to make money playing these games.

I have recently been playing LOTRO, Champions Of Regnum, and Realm of the mad god...

I play those games because I have steam friends that play those games and I enjoy playing with other people and having that feeling that I am contributing to a community.

MMOs are the closest things we have to old populated chat rooms. Plus I get to quest and do shit.

I play TERA, but I don't play loli dressup as an Elin, nor do I ERP. It's just fun and the combat is great.

Fuck it. I'll open up to a few random guys on 4chan like I always do.

I'm a really fucked up person. For example:

>Diabetic
>OCD
>ADD
>PTSD
>Abused as a child
>In therapy
>On meds
>Unemployed
>In college

I play Guild Wars 2.

Reasons I play:

>I enjoy the world

Guild Wars 2's world is what I want the real world to be. Many races working together to better everyone's lives.

On top of that, I can be running around a vine filled jungle on second, and then port over to an arctic wonderland a second later.

>The community

I can sit for hours and just TALK to people. Do you realize how hard that is for me in real life? There isn't shit to do where I live, so meeting people never happens. Actually getting to talk and play with other people is fucking cool.

>The characters

I main a Norn Warrior. Being a 140lb 5' 7" guy in real life, being able to roam around as a giant ass 7' hulking badass werewolf is fucking neat-oh.

>My friends

I have a guild. I can randomly find five guys to do anything in under a few seconds. I can randomly talk in map chat for a bit and find a new friend without problem.


It's an escape. Sure, I think the actual game play is good, but that can only go so far.

Anything close to that currently?

There are almost always good ones, but they're usually not well-known and typically sport 100-1000 players at best (sometimes they're well-known but just not outside their country of origin). For example, Eve is still great, then there was h&h, wakfu, dofus, tricksters online, and there's still tibia, sgwemu, rs07 and ro pservs.

I can understand playing your "first" MMO. There's all this mysticism and idealism around the idea. You think it's going to be something great, and you can suck yourself in them for a long time because you still sort of believe they're good games.

But they're actually just hardcore Farmville like games and not actually fun. Anyone who has played an MMO should be cynical enough to never play another, and certainly not continue playing one to this day.
