Goodbye EQ, Hello WoW
EQ died months ago, but we\'re tenacious. Like kids with a can, we\'ve played \"kick the dead horse\" night after night. Then we realized that we\'d have more fun eating the EQ CD\'s than playing what they contain.
Afterlife will no longer be playing EQ. We\'d rather watch TV than play EQ. Even if the TV is off. We\'d rather go fishing than play EQ. Even without beer.
Making the decision easy is World of Warcraft. While EQ is plagued by bugs, with every quest broken to begin and end game encounters working only by accident, WoW, even in beta, is essentially bug free. I\'ve personally done hundreds of quests in WoW, and they all worked. I haven\'t done that many working quests in EQ, and I\'ve been playing it for 6 years.
World of Warcraft has thus neatly replaced our previous addiction: sleeping.
Afterlife is now a World of Warcraft guild.
