I started playing mmorpgs with Diablo 2. The game was great at first but then I started playing too much. Any chance I got I would play it for hours on end usually about 10-15 hours a day. Eventually this almost cost me a 3-year relationship, a semester of school, and almost my job. I managed to pull away from the game barely in time. Since then I have been very put off by mmorpgs and have stayed as far away as possible. Then I heard about GW and also heard that it is non invasive (in other words non addictive/habit forming) so here are my questions.
1. Is it possible to play this game for only 1-3 hours a day and still have a successful account? I work and go to school and don’t have much more free time then that.
2. Is activity a big concern? I know that GW is guild based on and encourages playing with groups of people (hence the name) so I don’t want to buy the game and find out that no one wants a team mate that only logs on a couple hours a day at infrequent times and only every other day or so.
3. What profession would you suggest for someone who is just looking to have fun a couple of hours every day or so? I'm not looking to be elite or play on a ladder I just want to be able to log on and relax and not have to worry about work/school and basically relieve some stress and have fun. I also don’t want to get my rear-end handed to me by every leet speaking prepubescent munchkin that comes along.
Thanks in advance for any replies and comments
