Second life has recently become pretty much an addiction for me.
I joined a roleplaying group a few days, that’s roughly based on the old Star Wars RPG I used to play when I was a kid, and frankly, it’s a damn blast. I’m actually a ‘good’ Jedi in this game. Odd though, since usually when I play a Star Wars game, I tend to be very, very, very evil.
What happened tonight was amazing. One of the other ‘jedi’ managed to get captured by the Sith, so me and three other Jedi waltz into a Sith temple to try to save him. But we fail miserably. Within 5 minutes, all of us are dead.
And since we’re dead, we really can’t play again for 48 hours. So for the next two days, I really have nothing to do except read and clean up my house, while my computer idles unplayed. I don’t think I’ve ever been this upset by a death in a game before.
I’m really having fun in this game, and although Vanguard comes out tomorrow, I don’t know if I’ll jump ship and play that quite yet. From what I’ve been reading about Vanguard, it was rushed out and there’s still a plethora of bugs in the game. I think I just might have to wait a few months more until they patch it enough to check it out.
