Whenever my ex and I were at the store, we noticed the EQ box in the electronics department and thought it looked cool. Finally after about a month he bought a copy and started playing. He was hooked and I was pissed lol. About a month later he made me sit down and make a character. I think what made me like it first was that I could personalize my character. I made a human mage out of Qeynos. All I ever did was run her back and forth from Qeynos to Surefall Glade, killing small snakes and gnolls. Mostly I just pretended I was going on fishing trips and fished off the docks in SFG.
Eventually I did make a wood elf druid. I had no idea what the stats meant so I loaded her up with STR instead of WIS because I thought it meant I could hit harder. The moment I spawned up in the trees I thought it was so pretty. I found my way down (fell a few times) to a grassy area, approached a wasp and went into battle! The excitement of almost dying to a large wasp was awesome lol.
I went on to play that druid for 52 levels before making a bard.
Does anyone remember how scary it was at the time to kill a kobald, watch it die then gasp when its arm flew up again for one last strike? lol
