June Gaming Update

Gave up and uninstalled Vanguard SOH from this machine thursday night. (previous posts about Vanguard). I really want to like the game, but no amount of monkeying around will get it to run tolerably well on my machine. I’ve trolled the forums and asked plenty of in-game questions but to no avail.
Didn’t feel like messing with World of Warcraft again.
Back to Everquest I go. Again. For the last few weeks (once I calmed down) I log on a few nights a week and run around with some old friends and some of the newer folks in the guild. Nobody’s chasing the uber scene. Everyone is pretty content to be casual. No real pressure. Feels a lot like putting on an old pair of well-worn shoes. Smells better though. I’m a couple expansions behind, but so far haven’t seen a compelling reason to rush out and get current.
I activated both of my accounts, but going to let one of them lapse again in a couple weeks. I’ve decided that this time around I’m not going to spend all my time two-boxing with myself. That just gets tedious (for me) after a while. But meanwhile I was able to use the gear from the chars on the account I’m letting lapse (bye bye Darkensolo and Jhersolo /sniffle) to raise some funds. Dropped 30′ish Kpp on a new little Necro-twink-amancer and have 40′ish k in the bank to either upgrade Pliska or that Necro when they level a bit. And if the urge strikes, I still have the bard and the beastlord fully dressed and ready to go.

Want to rid yourself of that vanguard beta account ?
Hey Andy - as it appears to be tied to my “MS Passport” account, I think I’ll just hold on to it for now.
