I would sell every character I have ever made in all the games I have played for $42,000, thats is my emotional price tag. Then I would start the cycle all over again. Mwhaha… *runs off to the local game store to buy new copies of every mmo he can get his hands on* So begins another 10 year journey.

I couldn’t sell my account, for any price. Something about knowing that as long as SOE maintains EQ and EQ2 servers my characters will be there waiting for me is very comforting.

Maybe that shows a part of me can’t let the good times go, guess I’m a packrat at heart.

I hear you Stargrace.

My EQ2 Kilanna was based on my first pen and paper roleplaying girl. So not only do I have the almost 3 years in EQ2 that I have played her, but she has almost 15 years of associated memories. I have almost 2 years now that I have been in my current guild, friends have come and gone in game. I have developed lifelong friendships with my group I used to play pen and paper games with.

I am working towards Killys mythical, and she will no doubt earn herself some Fabled gear as we adventure through VP in the coming weeks and months. For me the “emotional price” on Killy is extremely high. The friendships and memories would be hard to give up.

Wow, I’m like at the complete opposite. I have so many characters that I need to gear and get AAs for, it’s like a terrible weight over my head. In my case I’d PAY someone to just take it all away.

How’s that for burnout. :p
