No, because my friends are philistines who laughed at me for "paying to play a game" in 2000, only subsequently get hooked on WoW.

During Live, my circle of friends had to ultimately agree to stop talking about EQ at "mixed" (EQers and boring folk) social gatherings, because it dominated the conversation and people felt left out.

These days, people are just like, "WTF?! Dude, it's not 1999."

I have to admit, I get annoyed that they younger people talk about video games with such open air confidence, where as twenty years ago it was still a niche thing, which you usually got made fun of.

I actually miss those days, all was still balanced with the world.

Now it's just wildly out of control and socially acceptable to do nothing with your life.

So I just start randomly talking about invis pulling in Howling Stones until they shutup about BF4.

My husband doesn't hate when I talk about EQ. He and I were guilded together in classic before we dated, so it's hard for him to say anything - although I do get aggro from time for playing, which he realizes is ironic.

He won't play P1999 over the 12,000 Steam Games he has purchased but has 'yet to play'...

But I do fill him in on the P1999 Server tabloids over dinner occasionally: Raid Rotations, Recent Drama, etc!

He does a pretty good job pretending to give a fuck:

Me: So FE broke up with IB and merged into TMO!
Him: WHAT? Don't they exist to take TMO down? Up is down! Left is right! Black is white!!
Me: What can I say? Velious be makin' people cray!

Lol, Aeaolena, it's awesome your husband pretends to care. You never know... He might end up playing here one day. I have 12,000 steam games also, but I still want to play P99 over those and save them for a rainey day. =D
