Newbie, Starting Anew

[Varnis54]

I played Planeshift a while ago, but I had to quite due to certain issues.  Remembering the name of the game, and thinking that it might have been brought up to a different state, I would like to try the game again. 

I am wondering if the people still play the game, or is it completely dead?  Is it alive only at certain times?

[Rigwyn]

Wibble.   ( That's PS parlance for welcome back... go figure.  )

Anyhow... yes, people still play but at different times. You are most likely to see people in either Hydlaa or Ojaveda.

Hello There. It is still "alive" but nothing like most commerical MMOs nowadays. People do still play though. If you ever want to know how many people are online or who is online you can use this link. http://planeshift.subhosting.net/index.php?page=char_stats

Typically, the game is most active during European Evening.

Thank you for the welcome.  And I am glad I am back, I just have no idea of where to start off at....  Oh well.  Still like it was when I first started to play it.

Also, thank you for the link to the "Online now".

You're welcome. Have fun. I would suggest starting with questing and looking for a profession to get into.

Oh, screw that. Join a baddie guild and pillage a guild house to two.

You delinquent you.

[Varnis54]

Hmmm...  Pillage or quest? 

Which one would be more fun, and rewarding...

Hmmm...  Tough choice.

Heh heh ...

Although the physical game itself does not provide a means to rob or pillage, this sort of thing can easily be done via role play. Role play takes a little more thought and a few other players who role play too, but can be terribly satisfying.

The roleplay portion fo the game is what drew me in the first time.  Too bad my computer would crash with the game.

...and to answer your question: Go be a productive and law abiding citizen.

But abiding by the law is never fun.   

[Illysia]

That's because you aren't doing it right.

[Varnis54]

Maybe, but being evil is more fun.  Hehehehehe
