    So was running from Qeynos to Freeport, if you weren't a drooling retard. The point is that it was a right of passage. I have invested this much time/effort in the game to be able to accomplish this. I bred the best chocobo, I learned the geography and mechanics of a huge expanse of Norrath...

    I mean, you guys are right of course. Obviously more starting cities would give the world a more immersive feeling and add story to the world... I just think that as far as longevity goes in a game with no alts, the single starting city is the best solution to ensure players continue to have an...

    The run on my bard (second character after I ditched my level 6 barb shaman) from Qeynos to Freeport is up there with defeating the Emerald Weapon in FF7, and beating Battletoads and Zelda II, for best gaming moments ever. Edit: dirty lie, bard wasn't my second character, it was just the...

    I played from quite early on... In cities like Erudin, Oggok, Grobb, Halas, Rivervale, and Kaladim I very distinctly remember seeing 5-10 newbies running around smacking fire beetles, with a couple Druids afk within the city walls. Compared to Freeport, where I remember a constant trickle...

    Ah okay see that may be where you and I differed. I rolled a Barbarian, an Erudite, a Qeynosian, a Dwarf, a Troll, and a Freeport Human all to somewhere between level 8 and 15. Freeport was the only newbie zone that felt even sort of vibrant. Freeport itself was very interesting with the...

    See, I preferred being in Gfay or EC where I knew there were easy low level groups to be had, and i could burn my way through to 20+. I didn't really find it valuable to seek out friendships in the low levels. Chances are I would not be in their level range within the week anyway.

    For every one of you, there is one of me. Who, every time he started a new alt, got a port directly to Freeport. I'm not levelling up in the underpopulated deserts that were Toxx, Innothule, Feerott, Butcherblock, Misty, and Everfrost just because it felt better from some immersion/RP...

    *shrug* if there's one thing I hate it's an underpopulated newbie area. If you think about it, it is the only real choice. Given the fact that their levelling scheme discourages the creation of alts, there won't be many new characters entering the world. Focusing them all in one place is not...

    If I changed the menu at the restaurant, and a regular/critic was displeased, and responded to me with the level of abuse gaming devs receive... I may do something less than civilized to them in retaliation.

    Dude... Min/maxing before character creation is more fun than playing 90% of MMOs. You can't blame me.

    So I'm gonna roll a a conj with plans of going white Mage later. Should I min/max race? Does it matter? Should I choose my race based on healing/mp or based on vitality like EQ?

    There is the possibility that Innorruuk is a Tier'dal in the army that escaped through the portal - perhaps he makes a pact with the dragon and thats what turns his companions into Dark Elves....Perhaps Lanys from the stories is actually still his daughter. Long shot, but who knows. Lets...
