Trouble is I find that I enjoy the company, and the drinks are a side effect.
I can usually stay without drinks too (for a while at least)... but then after a bit something bad happens like "oh fuckit, I'll go to the bottley down the road and get a couple more..." etc.

I played Wildstar during the closed beta., wasn't very impressed at the time.

I have read a few reviews from the open beta. Seems to be you need to get to lvl 15-20 before the game opens up. Which going from the games like WoW is no real surprise.

I will prob give it a nudge for a few months, the end game and PVP is meant to be really good. Like vanilla WoW good and difficulty.

I played to about lvl 20 and it felt like an MMO from 5 years ago quest wise. No attempt at all to hide the kill 5000 boars or pick up 50 items that despawn after one person collects them type quests. Although I will admit the player housing was pretty cool.

I think expecting any MMO to not have quests that revolve around, kill this, collect that, go there etc is pretty unrealistic. It's really the only way outside of doing group events/dungeons/pvp etc

Most other MMOs at least try to hide the kill 10000 mobs quests with some other mechanic and make the quests group friendly rather than having to compete with other players of the same faction.  One of the few things GW2 did right.

Oh hai!

Coming up for a breath of ear (haha - I don't even)

On top of workload, also have to start thinking about jobs.

80% international travel, servicing/updating/installing huge industrial machines sounds fun. Anyone have experience with 80% international travel jobs? how'd your relationship go? How long did it take before the glamour and excitement of international travel wore off?

Controls test Thursday. It's this whole other math.

Break up with her now if this is what you're looking at.

Also, if you've been told this by your tutors - "you are looking at jobs that could take you here, here, here and here", don't get your hopes up. The marketing spin that is put on degrees and what tutors normally spout are far from the truth.

Coming from someone who produces material with this exact bullshit in order to convince people to take up a degree.
