My first MMO was Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (WAR).
It wasn't a perfect game. Pleanty of bugs, but it had probably the best PvP of any game at the time. I played a Goblin shaman named Buzznutz. He was a healer build, and I have never felt more effective as a healer as I did playing that game. I was keeping our tanks up, and the shield walls strong.

A year later, the server I started on, Phoenix Throne, was no more. It was a victim of declining server population, and was shut down. It was a sad day, and the first time I ever experienced that grief of losing an online community.

There are some deaths I never really got over:

1) My grandparents
2) Joe Strummer
3) The death of Phoenix Throne

These days I'm full bore into the Elder Scrolls Online. I have found a wonderful guild, and don't see myself leaving this game any time soon. But nothing beats those days when I would get home from work, log in to WAR, and and jump into the WWWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGHH!!!!!

Yes, there is the fan-maintained
Return of Reckoning, but it doesn't have the same feel. I dunno. If I can get it to work on Linux, I may just peek in to see what's going on.

But, man...those Phoenix Throne days....

Unlike a lot of other #MMORPGs, #FFXIV forces the player into party play. You can't progress the MSQ without it.

Also, the game allows and encourages each PC to hold multiple classes (but not in the #DnD #multiclassing sense, each class/role is exclusive, only one can be active at a time).

So, FFXIV forces the player to learn party dynamics.

I now understand why WotC came out with #DnD4E, and its Roles of "Controller/Striker/Leader/Defender" in an attempt to mimic the #WoW style of play.

Hi! I'm SecretPeriwinkle (Peri for short), a Canadian #Mikmaq #VTuber who loves gaming and creating content. I enjoy #retrogaming, #MMORPGs, #ARPGs, and #cozygames.

I've been gaming since I was 4, married a fellow gamer, and we have a little gamer too! Our #AuDHD household is always lively & fun.

When I'm not gaming, I explore my creative side as an #indieauthor, graphic designer & #photographer, and I dabble in #programming and cybersecurity research.

To get that Quicktongue III, even though I've already exhausted the quest rewards where I could have got it, I could:

1. Continue to farm Phys DPS materia and roll the dice with Transmuting at random. (slowest, maybe).
2. Add a Magic class, and farm Magic materia that way (faster).
3. Pony up for the subscription fee and simply buy it on the Market Board (fastest, pretty much immediate).

I don't generally play Magic PCs in #mmorpgs, because the mechanics tend to be even more complex. #gaming
