Second Life Any Good?

[Runo]

Fun and social in Second Life is questionable, last I played this it was both buggy and laggy and if you intended to have a free account don't count on your character looking anywhere near appealing. Last bit of info I heard on this was that the average Second Life user logs on for fifteen minutes, a month. >_>

Wow... okay, well what do you suggest, F2P, fun, social?

If you like to socialize, and do anything, be anything, and make anything, this is the game for you.

lol Yeah it's an awesome game if you're a 40 year old man who enjoys flirting with skanky young girls that are actually other 40 year old men. Mmm, that sweet smell of community!

I kind of liked the Maplestory community. There's a lot of noobs, but it's still entertaining to laugh at them, get pissed as hell at them, and thouroghly pwn them. I think every game needs a selection of noobs. It adds variety. Underneath that, my brother has made very good friends with a lot of people, and stays in contact even after quitting. That game's enjoyability hinges solely on being able to make friends. xD The only thing it needs is a really good party system. Plus, the community is huge on even the newer servers so there's always people around.

It's fairly easy just to goof off in maple. If chatting can distract you from grinding, I would recommend it. However, it's not 100% social-based. The grind barely constitutes game play though so it's essentially something to do as you talk. Some of the party quests are pretty fun and social later too.

It's kinda hard to find something that fits that bill since one way or another every game in someones opinion is either fun, social, boring, grindy, bot filled or lacking something. So I would suggest trying some popular f2p games or whatever else fits your taste.

there was a news report about 2 months ago saying that people have gotten too addict to it that they have begun to reject reality

MS? My Quick Favor post explains why I can't play it anymore . The EXP loss when you die turned me off, but I'd love to play again, feel the nostalgia.

Yeah, it's a bummer. It's really awful to have to work at it again. But if you play it safe it's generally alright. I played a mage so I died heaps ( main reason I left too), but Warriors are pretty sturdy. ;3 Theives are heavier on HP than MP too, though their armour is less.

It seems really appealing.. literally, a SECOND Life. But Dark Revelation had nothing good to say, kind of turned me off, I'm torn!

I knew someone that that happened to them, it wasn't pretty and I'm not too surprised really. The creators designed some of the plants and things based off a brain disease that makes them look real.

oh wow. People like needs serious helps.
