kathygnome So you haven't heard me mention Rift much. That's because I basically stopped playing. I lost my raid spot (to people who don't show up apparently--they are cancelling raids because of the no-shows), but then something far more drastic happened. The game had already taken a turn for the worst with the creation of an automated instant teleport to the dungeon LFG tool. (I swear the G is for Grief, not Group.) And almost immediately, the same things started to happen that happened in WoW. Nobody talks. It's expected you will be overgeared and the only way to run is to rush to finish. And when they announced it was going cross-shard, that was it for me. I just lost all interest in logging in.
Eve is quiet. I log in and check my PIs and I'll go on fleets if they're scheduled when I can, but I can't just sit online hoping something gets set up. I think everyone is really just waiting out the supercap nerf, hoping it happens and we can get back to having actual wars instead of 100 supercap fleets being effectively a veto on anything.
So I've ended up, of all things, starting up back where I started in Ultima Online. I have a little stall that I sell animals at and I'm having a reasonable time toodling around and growing my plants.
