Give me that and I'll replay the same content over and over and over. I must have drunk a million cups of tea in my life, but another cup of tea is always good. Indeed, the next cup of tea is always as good as the first cup of tea or any cup of tea.<br /><br />I don't need new things to do, just good things to do. A nice, big open world with plenty to explore and a wide range of races and classes that all feel significantly different works for me every time.<br /><br /><br />AA is my favorite "keep me playing at max level" mechanic and I completely agree with you about gear grind as a means for keeping a "finished" character rolling. Getting better gear as you're growing up is one thing; that's like growing out of clothes. Gearing up to do the same thing you just did only with a "harder" label stuck on the front? I don't think so.Bhagpusshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499162165023939880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-826986957606858027.post-2239128951205770112012-06-19T01:03:51.846-04:002012-06-19T01:03:51.846-04:00I also think Bioware has done a decent job with SW...I also think Bioware has done a decent job with SWTOR, and I wonder with retrospect whether the community will ever be able to admit this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-826986957606858027.post-68322126232228782892012-06-18T23:36:39.492-04:002012-06-18T23:36:39.492-04:00In LOTRO, I think of virtues and legendary items a...In LOTRO, I think of virtues and legendary items as a type of alternate advancement system, and enjoy working on in much the same way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
