Subject: Re: Fw: [EQMagicians] Just a thought..


What reasons have they given for this, not giving us numerical values
for our mana ?

Maybe it's just the mood I'm in, but do they strike you as pricks?
I mean, honestly.. they give us, in the spell's info, how much mana it takes
to cast it, but they're out-right refusing to give us numbers showing how
much mana we have? They're just being pricks about it, or at least, that's
how it seems to me. What basis would they have for not?

Not to mention all of the other limitations, and the "you're in our
world now" that I thought was just a cool slogan, but now seems to be more
of another way to say, "this is our world, we're in control, we think for
you, we decide how you play, where you go, what you see, and if you don't
like it _leave_ because it's _MINE_" . That's B.S., we pay for this...

I dunno, I think I'll keep EQ until another company comes out with a
full 3D fantasy role-playing world. You know it'll happen, and maybe
they'll have their stuff straight.
