Subject: Away from EQ


Hi guys,

Surprised to say I didnt miss EQ over the weekend when I didn't login ;)
Instead I login UO to settle some housing issues. UO will be implementing
a major item patch tomorrow, and I spend my weekend preparing for it.

After this item patch, a skill management patch will come shortly, which
greatly enhance the role-playing element of UO. With this skill patch, I
will do lots of macroing when I sleep at night, hehe, till I get all the
chars I want.

With all these new patches, UO is becoming a much better game. I must
admit I'm kinda bored with camping, lvling, hack and slash in EQ....and I
think there is a lack of motivation for me to login EQ, even when I have
nothing to do at home (in the end spend time watching TV series, hehe).

Just to inform all that I will not show my face in EQ often in the month of
Oct, mainly due to many things I need to settle with the new UO patches
(plus some guild matters too). I hope EQ will still attract me after Oct,
or else I may consider selling away my acct, hehe.

Other than sorting my house items during the weekend, I didnt go for any
hunting in UO. Meeting all my good old buddies already take up half of my
UO login time (sparred with some of them and still kill them, hehe). There
is no arguement that UO has better role-playing element than EQ. With the
coming patches which UO will be implement teaming, pvp etc policies like
EQ, I think more ex-UO players will be draw back from EQ to UO (provided
they still have an active acct like me, coz UO just conduct a char purge
last Fri, to delete all chars under acct not active for 3 months).

If you guys wanna play UO, I'm in the Baja shard ;)

p/s: This is not a quiting-EQ msg, dun get me wrong. Just need to take a
break from the plain hack-&-slash 'routine' work, hehe. ;)
