That was a tearjerker.. it makes me wonder, how the JP's had it when it first came out, i remember my first days in Wronfaure, and finding ghelsba.. and seeing the orcs. I remember my first time in the dunes, excited by the sands, and the first friend i made, while sailing on the ship to mhaura, he wanted to show me windurst. I kinda wish we had the same oppurtunity to find all this out on our own, without the help, without anyone guiding us, or telling us the answers. It would be a lot of fun, Ill still explore, and still end up dead 9 times outta 10. but ill have a hell of a time doing it.
Just remember, this is a game, and your an adventurer, levels open up new things to do, not make you "uber" so dont forget the values in game, of what really matters =)
