Should I continue? Does anything Exciting happen?

Got the game when it first came out.

I got about 1/2 way through and explored about half
the map.
I sort of got a little bored with it. The quests didn't
seem to drive the game along all that much (well to me
anyhow).

I still have my saved games where I left off, and was
wondering if this game picks up at all after about the 1/2
way stage or if it still just goes along all pretty well
much the same.

I never adjusted the slider to make the combat harder.
Maybe if I do that it might make things more exciting?

1. Do +50 difficulty for a start.
2. Tell me where in the Main(Blades) quest are you?
3. Keep playing...

yes, phil, are you even working on the main quest? if so, then by the halfway point you should have a pretty good idea of where you stand in the story.

i suspect that you've been doing random side quests and thats why they seem to discontinue so much, along with the fact that they often send you wandering about for asinine stuff.

1: make it harder

2: go through the main quest

3: Only stop playing when your fingers are bony and decayed and you have had no sunshine on your face for thirty five years. im guessing thats how long it will take before i will get bored.

PhilM13 · 07-21-2004, 10:15 PM

Right ok.., I'll reinstall and do the +50 difficulty.

Think i have only done about 4 or 5 main quests.
Don't remember where I am, but my last quest
took me up into the North West area of the map
for the first time.

Anyhow...it might all be exciting again
after a one and a half year break [img]smile.gif[/img]

I get bored sometimes too; the most boring part for me is the quests of guilds (fighters, etc) which are very easy at first, and don't give you very good rewards

DalekBoy · 07-23-2004, 10:15 PM

hm... looks lioke you need to open a business, like egg poaching. the Shulk eggmine's eggs grow back every four months. raid them, and steal thier stuff!

Kakero · 07-24-2004, 12:21 AM

ya, when I got bored I stopped playing for a while and do other stuff like play another game, somehow later the urge to play back this game will arrive.

PhilM13 · 07-24-2004, 02:23 AM

TOOOO MANY!!!!!!! other great games is really
the only reason I stopped playing MW.

So many "great" older games out now at next to
nothing prices.....

SO many current great games......

AND.....It keeps comming!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just read and interview with the DOOM 3 guys.
YES....It's finished...and sounding really
S**T HOT.

MAN!!!! I really need the gaming industry to
"STOP" for the next 3 years.

This life just ain't gonna be long enough.
And I "seriously" didn't care about life much
before computer games...yes true!!!
