I'm probably the only one lol, but I decided I can't play the beta anymore because being an explorer PVEer, I just don't want to keep progressing spoiling the game. Beta gives you a good chance to test things, like skills, character builds, etc, but it isn't fun to ignore every quest just to progress. Unlike people here who think the game might be boring because it doesn't fit there playstyle, its the leveling slowness, exploration, story and wondering whats ahead that totally fits mine. So, goodbye beta. You're too good for me and I can't take anymore spoilers lol.

I am unable to stop, sadly.
Finally managed to DL the game today and play for a few hrs.
What I saw took me by suprise. Its actually a damn good game. Damn good.
Slow paced, story rich with fun quests good RPG.
And yes, I will buy it and pay sub. Hands down well made.
Aye and must admit looking forward to release when I can make my Avatar and fully immerse myself in the game. Biggest problem with Beta testing and such is seeing to much and losing the freshness before the release.
One of the reasons I feel that the developers put in the hard level cap for Beta players.
Have to stop myself, breaking my heart. Cannot wait until release
Will be wiped definitely but only before launch.
Pre launch wipe is eminent.
But the game took me by suprise.
Slow paced, story driven with plethora of quests.
While I did not craft so far, I see many have started crafting and enjoying them selfs.
The only bad part is the begining - in prison - AGAIN.
As far as graphics go, its actually quite good for an MMO. Looks real nice. Cant wait for dungeon crawls
mmorpg.com, the 4chan of mmo forums.
Haha Doushi doing the same thing. This game is cool
*spoiler*
Daggerfall Convenant is the best Faction.
I haven't touched it at all this weekend. Last beta weekend I had to force myself to stop playing hehe. Especially after Cyrodiil.
Don't want to spoil everything for myself. Can't wait for release! ^^
Actually this is a good idea. If anything I could use it to go from horrible in PVP to still horrible in PVP. Whoops? That would be the same lol.
There Is Always Hope!
Only played my characters to lvl 5 -6. Finished starting areas. waiting for launch.
Proud MMORPG.com member since March 2004! Make PvE GREAT Again!
lol i guess NDA is out the window at this point?
personally, this is the only beta i am going to participate in for the same reason that the OP stopped playing.
i just wanted to get a good feel about what kind of character i am going to make and what the models look like.
i'm still not sure though, so many decisions.
Very true, I still have no clue what I want to do lol. I never had this issue with the strict trinity based games before. Do I stick with my typical DOTS from distance I normally play, or try something different, like a two handed assassin with magika spells lol.
There Is Always Hope!
count me in
I don't wanna restart again.
it does make sense though just to test various combinations in the starter area just to see which initial build might appeal to you :-).
There Is Always Hope!
I played until 4-5am both Friday and Saturday night. Today I popped on once to try crafting and a bit more exploring but I want to wait until its all permanent so I can get every scrap of loot I can :P
I usually hate crafting in general in every game. Maybe I should test that and give it a try.
There Is Always Hope!
Yep, I played long enough to hammer out my class, race, and alliance choices and test the crafting (which is preltty outstanding) and I'm saving the rest of it.
I stopped my progression shortly after leaving the starter area. There's plenty to figure-out in the crafting dept., so that kept me entertained.
At least I now have a some idea of what the "classes" do. Also managed (surprisingly) to pick my starter class for launch. Haven't settled on a faction though.
There'll probably be another beta weekend or two before launch. Must... resist... the... temptation...
Did everything I wanted to.. now just waiting for release really.
Roll on April!
