Also, you are playing the West faction. Its the most populated on every server, usually there's a 60/40 split at least. Your faction choice compounds the other problems related to population on your server. Not only is it thinly populated, but yo…
Gripe #1: Just don't do the quests, go kill mobs or pvp or harvest for exp. Which by the way, you also had to do in DAOC to level up in order to kill higher level mobs and do higher level pvp.
Gripe #2: You can grow any of the crops without ha…
I just hope Trion sticks to their guns and gives people an option of ONE mmo on the market not geared toward ADD type players. There are dozens of choices out there for people that want to max out everything in a month then move to another game.

Don't let the usual hysterical interweb posters scare anyone. The patch changes ARE welcome to anyone that cares about the long term health of the game.
There isn't any content behind a pay wall ... that's just a bizarre statement.

This game has the least level grind of any I've played so far. I can't keep myself from leveling lol. I do a lot of crafting/farming/gathering in addition to questing and I've outleveled my quests by at least 10 levels.
You can absolutely leve…
Here are some hysteria free facts about the gilda star changes for NA/EU (Trion):
Not only will you get gilda stars through the storyline quest, but you will also get gilda stars through doing risk free dailies. Currently they are a random drop…
The sub fees you are paying for Gemstone/DragonRealms are of more direct benefit to you the player than in the modern graphical mmo's. You get direct GM interaction in the form of live quests, merchants, festivals, invasions, etc. Not just the dev…
Yeah I talked to Ardwen just last week. I saw Arwen on a while back, but not sure if its the same player or not.
Hehe, i never had anything as nice as Sorrow .. but I did have a death flail and a golvern 2 hand axe I'd like to find along with…
Yeah, DR is still seeing a decent amount of active development from Simu .. it has a larger playerbase and the engine is worlds easier to work on (not being a patchwork of 30 year old systems like GS heh).
Celtar, wow yeah Pauper's haunted hou…

You don't know how good you have it these days.
I played Gemstone 3 on GEnie around 1992-2000 then went with a bunch of players off to EQ, oddly enough as a character named Aluvius hehe. A year or so ago I felt the urge to open up my account and have played a bit there off and on since.

The economy/crafting in every mmo without breakage is screwed from day 1.
That being said, the crafting in SWTOR at least takes a little longer to become pointless than most other AAA themepark mmo's. The reason is Reverse Engineering. Its also …
