Hello! I am Sgahgrezch (S'GAH-gredtch) and I am from the United States. I am a long-time MMO-player who has spent the most time in Runescape, Shadowbane, Regnum Online, WoW, and EVE. For a long time, I have been sad about the state of MMOs as the genre becomes more and more commercialized. WoW (my most recent game and longest running) has become rather stale, and your character feels like a Demigod among mere mortals. I miss the days of complexity, of feeling small in a game-world, and most of all, I miss the tightly-knit community feeling and roleplay of classic MMOs.
When I finally tried Ryzom, after years of hearing about this game (I play on Linux sometimes, yet Regnum filled that hole for me) I was blown away after my first chat in /universe. What a helpful community! And I saw a GM come in and talk to players...that was incredible. I have already made some friends (special thanks to Itzy and Trilexis for going out of their way to help a newbie) and joined a guild. I am excited to learn this game and even more excited to meet and play with this kind community.
In real life I am a student in my last year at university. I study Philosophy and History, and I focus on 19th and 20th century philosophy, the philosophy of time and history, ethics, and social/political theory. When I'm not in game I am probably reading. When I'm not in game or reading I am probably sailing, ice skating, playing disc golf, or going on nature walks/hikes. I love all kinds of music but especially bands in the rock genre, from death metal to indie to shoegaze and dream pop.
That's plenty introduction! I hope to meet you in-game!
