Title: Memories
Post by: rytram on August 03, 2014, 05:51:12 PM
I always find an introduction to be an oddly forced interaction for me. I only ever played multiplayer games, because the person on the other end was a better opponent than the AI. I had a small group of friends that shared the same ideas as me. This continued through most of my childhood until around 7th grade. A friend of mine had returned from a week away at his cousins house with stories of a game. Armies of chickens guarding the teleporters of Jhelom, the ratmen raids onto Brit bank, and the general wild unknown outside the protection of guards(before Tram). After a little probing, I found myself logging into UO.   

I remember the sensation of seeing someone with a full spellbook for the first time. I remember running from lichs in Jhelom's cemetery, and I remember taming my first dragon. I also remember losing all of my possessions to that lich. I remember my dragon being over run by PKs, and my guild fighting back in the memory of my fallen dragon. The memories I had with this game are among the best that I have ever had in a MMO. They taught me a lot about people and social interactions that have not been replicated. Returning to UO was inevitable.

Since that time, I've had a lot of time to explore life and a plethora of MMOs. My name is Jeff, and I have come back home.

Love hearing others reminisce about their beginning in UO. I was a pack rat and did not have anyone to show me the ropes. I would run around collecting things left or dropped by others, killing brigands and orcs for gold, and dying to Liches. I was PK'd for the first time at the Brigand camp. Good times! I think it was 3 or 4 months before I ventured very far from Brit and the Brit crossroads.

 Are you playing a free server or official server? If official server, which one?

I've decided on UO Gamers: Demise. I had originally downloaded to play on official servers, but I have a deployment fast approaching. I was hoping I may be able to recover my old account on official, but it was from before Tram. :\
