Anyone have an interest in trying out Dungeons and Dragons Online (http://www.ddo.com/) or Age of Conan (http://www.ageofconan.com/) ? Both are free. Age of Conan has PVP. Retards who annoy me need not apply.

I volunteer Gelden and Oenomaus, from wK.  They used to be l33t AoC players, or so they claim.

You got me for AoC, played way back in the days when it was actually good and not free to play shit.

I went to both websites, but they left me cold, so I decided to play neither.

I stumbled upon a webpage called "Letters of Note", and found some funny bits of history. This is one of the shorter letters, as I know WB players have literacy issues.

In 1930, after winning the Nobel Prize in Literature, author Sinclair Lewis began to receive a steady stream of fan mail, from all corners. One woman in particular wrote and offered to become his secretary, adding, "I’ll do everything for you—and when I say everything I mean everything." The following brief letter was sent to the young lady in response; not by Lewis, but by his wife, Dorothy.



My dear Miss:

My husband already has a stenographer who handles his work for him. And, as for "everything," I take care of that myself—and when I say everything I mean everything.

Dorothy Thompson
(Mrs. Sinclair Lewis to you.)

Following Roman's steps.  Ahem, so got into the Guild Wars 2 beta this weekend.  Anyone else get in?

[Friendlyfyre]

Is this what balion has come to? Free games and history lessons?
I am disapoint

You mean you pre purchased the game ? Or are they already doing closed beta not just beta weekends.

The PVP on Guild Wars 2 looks like nothing more than mini-games. I didn't see any mention of open world pvp, at all.

In other news, I bought that DLC gun mod, Napoleon or whatever for $4.99 on the steaming sale. They really hit that nail on the head because it's a steamy pile. It's fun to to play the flute and ride around dressed up like some rainbow liberal, but it wears off in about 40 minutes. I can see some of the arabian castle walls from Native in the maps and other than the playable instruments I really don't see the what the big deal is. It's a semi fleshed out module with lots graphics glitches - like floating sandbags.  Vikingr runs rings around Napoleon.

The Romans rating = avoid until Christmas when Steam will be giving it away for free with the pre-purchase of whatever TW's next firearms expansion is.

It is all about playing bridal song as the enemy storm the church and break up your wedding with they bayonets.

Also being a cavalry trumpeter and constantly play"break formations" while bumping people everywhere is rather fun.
