I would not have played on FR. I liked FR in the 1980s when it came out, but it has become too Monty Haul. If I'm going to trip over +5 swords everywhere I turn, I may as well play a cartoon game. The thing that inspired me most by Crimson Blade's post was that a Level 4 quest was "very hard."

I hope DDO doesn't have the equipment micromanagement that WOW does. If you're going for realism, then realize that you don't upgrade swords and armor every 3 days. Maintain and repair them, that's fine, but the equipment narkiness of WoW bothers me. I'd rather be adventuring, and know my equipment is set for a few levels.

Blade, you've almost got me sold I tell ya.

Here's one thing we should do -- coordinate this on the FRONT END so that we IW'ers end up on the same server for a change.
