To the Pony…

Attended our first kin meeting in LotRO last night, and after business was finished, we mounted up and headed into Bree for a pint at the Prancing Pony.  Lucky for us, Ales & Tales was planned for the Mess Hall, so there were no queues to get ale and snacks.

Have I mentioned lately how much I love people in this game?

It’s just a game

Recently the husband and I started playing Lord of the Rings Online again. We had bought it back shortly after it’s original release and got really frustrated and gave up on it. Yes, things have changed, both in what we were looking for in a game, and the game itself. I’ve dropped my WoW subscription 3 times in the past few years, and I kept going back. Each time I did, I got more and more annoyed with the general attitude of the players, to the point that I recently called it quits again, and as of right now, I’m not really that interested in the Cataclysm expansion.

After a couple years of tying myself to a raiding schedule, I’ve gotten over the need to have the best and biggest everything. There’s a part of me that would like to see the content in games I play, but at the same time, the time and work involved takes the experience beyond having fun, into a place that is more like work. That’s not what I want to spend my time doing.
