Need Motivation To Play - Suggestions?
From 1999-2004 I played EverQuest, and I had some fantastic and exciting times with friends, my guild, etc. However, more than ten years later, I am now in a very successful World of Warcraft guild, work 40 hours a week, desire to spend time with my gal and I have an all around pretty good existence. I remember EverQuest very fondly, and nothing will ever change that.
Yet, I'm afraid to come back for a couple of reasons. One of the reasons is that I'm afraid the controls will be too dated. In WoW I rely on my mouse for so much: movement, abilities, attacking. In EQ, if I recall correctly, you can't click through your character, you can't hold both mouse buttons down to move forward, and it's just an old style that I don't think I'd enjoy anymore. Is what I recall correct? If so, what have you all done to get around/over it?
The other reason is that I raid three nights a week in WoW, and work/spend time with my girlfriend on the other nights. I don't plan on making P1999 an everyday event, but if I do start to play it, I will eventually reach level cap, and knowing myself the way I do, I know I'll want to raid to some degree. All of this leads me to ask, "How is raiding on the server?".
I view P1999 as something I can do once or twice a week for short sessions and enjoy, but I'm just so stinkin' afraid of the controls. I enjoy the smoothness you experience in controlling your character in WoW. I enjoy having time to raid and live my life the way that I do right now. Do I need to be concerned for either with P1999?
