I've been playing STO quite a bit over the last week. After being in the closed beta, the open beta, and the headstart you'd think I'd have had enough already. But I haven't. I sort of like it. It's providing a great change of pace for me from my WoW playing.
I've not been very adventerous thus far in terms of my toon. My first character is a human Starfleet officer called James Herbert Surge and he is the commanding officer of the New Jersey. I just got him promoted from Lieutenant to Lieutenant Commander this weekend during the "Winter Powerhouse" that "paralyzed the east coast" on Friday and Saturday. This week, after playing around a bit with Surge's new cruiser, I'll finally roll up a Klingon and some other kind of Starfleet alien race.
It's not mindblowing. But it's pretty solid. A comment in Zone chat yesterday pretty much summed up my attitude: "it'll do until TOR is ready."
A couple of typical random WoW-related posts that are always popping up at the launch of MMOs these days made me chuckle for some reason:
"NEED A RUN THROUGH STOCKS - PAYING 5G!"
"Need heals and 3 dps for ICC25 then gtg"
Ho-hum. Certainly not as chuckle-inducing in print as they were "in the moment."
Been listening to a bunch of new and non-WoW related podcasts, but some of the classics as well. Should be posting our updated list later today.
