Altoholics Annonymous
Does it count if we stopped playing for a year and a half and just came back?
Honestly i've played off and on since April 2004 and i am a hopeless altoholic. I have well over 100 characters and i've deleted at least that many. I know i have some obscure toons on random servers that i haven't logged into the game in about 4 years.
Wear your altohilism with pride. Some of us can never seem to get it "just right" the first time. Or the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, etc. In fact some of us simply want to experience many different variations of every Archetype. Why? I really don't know other than to say that variety has kept me playing this game off and on for 7 years and i know there are others out there that have done the same.
Hi, my name is (insert name here) and i am an altoholic!
Where do I start...
I have been an Altoholic for god knows how long. I'll settle onto a concept for a toon that I'd like to make. Case in point I've had a speedster concept, a Catwoman concept, a paladin concept, a Canadian Version of Captain America concept, ect ect, that I just HAVE to make. And since I play on Virtue and Virtue alone I tend to delete alts to make room for new ones. While all the above concepts are still around other that I've made but lost interest in are now just costume files on my hard drive.
My most recent bout was been after seeing the Duke Nukem Forever trailer on You Tube. And all the years the game is finally coming out. I even pre-ordered it.
Next think I know I have an Assault Rifle/Traps Corruptor with a similar look called Duke Forever.
Hail to the King, Baby.
I just re-subbed after a four year hiatus about 20 days ago. I promised myself, that this time around I would have one character focus all my efforts on that one character!
I now have:
* lvl 27 Warshade who I switched to Redside...But I can't log into. Submitted a few tickets...
* lvl 22 Kin/EA Brute - Meh.
* lvl 14 Mind/Psi Dom - I really, really want a Mind/Psi!
* lvl 6 Rad/Pain Corr
On top of what I had before:
* lvl 50 SS/EA Brute - Who I don't play anymore
* lvl 50 EM/WP Brute - Who is pretty awesome, switched him to Rogue. Thinking of going all the way to Hero and back again
* lvl 50 Fire/WP Scrapper - Also awesome. Focused on getting him Vigilante status
* lvl 45 Ice/Kin Corr - Meh.
* lvl 44 Elec/Stone Brute - Awesome
* lvl 30 Peacebringer - Meh.
EDIT: lvl 50 Huntsman - Meh.
And others I can't remember...
