Hi everyone! It's been a while - almost 8 years - since I've last played AC. Back in 2005 my college, unfortunately, decided to block P2P downloading and essentially blocked all the internet ports associated with the client, and that ended a very long run in the game.
I switched to Warcraft for a few years - I played that until around 2008, and took a deeply needed sabbatical. I'm now interested in AC again - it seems like they've made a lot of changes, and I'm reading up on the Wikiia site right now. Too many changes to count!
I'm not entirely sure where to go from here. In one hand it seems as if the game is too easy - this was one of the reasons I quit World of Warcraft. But in the other hand it seems like it can get too difficult too, so I'm not looking to play a game as a pure archer spec without Magic and make it impossible.
Long story short I'm very disappointed to see that there isn't a free trial. How long has this been the case? I'm really hoping that at some point they re-instate the free trial. I don't mind paying the monthly subscription fee as long as it's the type of MMO I'm looking for (solo-intensive with optional group play, compared to Warcraft where essentially it was a "You will group/raid to get any worthwhile equipment.")
I'm not even sure my characters still exist. I had what would have been a ~150ish Archer (cap was 126 during my play) and around a 130ish Mage. I'd be curious to see how they play out.
It doesn't look like this game will go F2P anytime soon, unfortunately. That's too bad.
Either way, hello from an old friend (or in some cases an adversary!) from Leafcull.
