Artifice Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 I usually go by Manifold (reserved) or Zed as a handle, but if you’re jonesin for a real-ish name then Zach it is. This Zach guy is 30 and lives in Colorado, and he believe GIFs should replace every text message ever. In the dawn of my subjective reality I peered into the mirror and saw a gamer. I’m not bragging when I say I’ve probably played double or triple the number of games as most gamers; artifacts of a misspent youth. I played all the NES games when I was very young but it was FFIV that roped me into bathing in the glow of a TV until the sun came up. In the MMO scene: I played Gemstone 3 and Dragonrealms MUDs to start, skipped UO, played EverQuest from Beta through PoP (Raiding/PvP Server) — quick aside — this allows me to start many sentences with “well back in my day…”. I was an officer in a couple guilds on that and had was a competitive Clan leader in Tribes/Tribes2. Played AO, EQ2, Neverwinter, DDO, DAoC, GW, GW2, AC, FFXIV, FFXI, Rift, Vanguard, Lineage, ESO, Warhammer Online, WoW (beta through BC), SWG, SWTOR (hardcore PvP), Planetside, and… who knows how many more. This paragraph is boring sleeptime but I wanted to provide some gaming background. I checked out a bunch of guilds on the WS forums and you guys seem like the right margarita mix of community and commitment; more recently I haven’t guilded up much in MMO’s or done so casually but I’m excited enough about Wildstar that I’ll play it more than the 2 months or so I dabble in most MMOs. Things I’m looking forward to most in Wildstar are Housing and PvP (like a bunch of bunches). I plan on doing a DPS Mechari Medic with a Cassian esper alt. I really wanted to play Chua for the slight “small guy” pvp advantage but I tried it and wanted to chew my own face off then incinerate my retinas. I am also going to build the coolest and most polygonal-overload of a housing plot ever, and you’re invited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackal Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 I tried [playing a Chua] and wanted to chew my own face off then incinerate my retinas. You just made a lot of friends and enemies with one sentence. I love the vivid imagery. Looking forward to your in-game house warming party! Is it BYOB or are you too classy for that? Welcome to SoH!

Grieve Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Welcome! I must say FFIV is definitely still one of my favorites so you caught my attention. Was there a specific character in FFIV that stood out for you as a favorite? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artifice Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Re: Sw vs ST FFIV hmmm I guess I liked Cecil/Rydia the most —you know after she got all pixel-hot in the Land of Monsters, and Rosa was a buzzkill. If you haven't downloaded the ROM or bought the iOS app for FFV then I highly recommend you try it out. Guess those japanese guys thought all us Americans wouldn't want such gooey RPG goodness or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artifice Posted May 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Hey does anyone know how rough it will be to tradecraft as an Architect? And it won't be BYOB, I'll just get the Lopp party plug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanity Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 Welcome, Mani-Zed-Zach ... Can't wait to come to your party! AFAIK, I don't think anyone of us have delved too deeply into crafting yet, but I do know that it (architect) requires materials from all the gathering professions.

Grieve Posted May 24, 2014 Report Share Posted May 24, 2014 (edited) Ya, I was a fan of Kain even though he tried to kill Cecil. I'm still playing through the iOS version and ya Rydia before and after was a bit like... Edited May 24, 2014 by Grieve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
