I recently was thinking about how long I’ve been playing the game, and I’m curious about you lot.

I haven’t done an official /playtime in a while, but this year being the 10th anniversary of A Realm Reborn, I recall my days and nights early in 2013 playing the beta tests on my PS3. At the time, I was living with a friend of mine, and we had two TVs in the living room going as we got our temporary characters up to level 20 over a weekend only for those characters to be wiped out.

But it was fun running through that early game, learning the systems, getting reminded why leaving WoW was a good idea (not a single person asked about my DPS! …in maybe my whole time in this game, actually.).

So after ten years of playing my favorite little Lala, I look forward to seeing where this story goes from here.

How about you all? What’s your story?

    I’ve always been a little envious of the 1.0 people (even though everything points to that game not being that great).

    I would have loved to have been there when they shut the servers off to watch the world die.

    Edit: I should also add that I’ve been a Scholar main since 2.0. It always felt right for my character, even though they’ve made so many changes over the years.

      Alas I didn’t go much further than 1.0, I didn’t even get out of Gridania! It really wasn’t great. :(
