[edit] Guild & Alliance Life

Guild: The Kaizen Order
My guild is the Kaizen Order. It's a friendly guild of veteran players. The core founders were close in previous games and got hooked on Guild Wars early. I joined them in the summer, then departed as the guild was too small and the old guys were too close to each other to keep the others involved. As My experience in the game itself improved and my acquaintanced increased, I rejoined them and brought some friends with me.

I am an officer in the guild and I love to help the new guys out and keep pointing them here. We have some very skilled players and most of the guys I hang out with in the guild are amazingly mature and fun. It's like a senior citizen care center. :) Very few officers younger than 20.

Alliance: None
We parted ways with the HzH alliance after four months of faction farming. Maintaining high faction in the absence of purpose or competition felt a lot like a second job. So, we are free souls now. :) It was a pleasure to hold the house for so long and to be a part of the "good guys" approach (of no charging for ferries, no stealing guilds, ...). From LUST to oOo to EoE to TLS, I wanna thank everyone who ever teamed with us in that effort.

[edit] Computer Games

I am a HUGE fan of two genres that are dying right now (but still produce amazing games): Adventure games and well storied RPG games. I enjoy questing and exploring and living the real game experience. I actually abhor much of the most popular elements of MMORPG culture like trading and dissing noobs and playing PvP to climb a ladder. :)

Favorite RPG games:

  1. The eternal masterpiece: Planescape: Torment
  2. The Baldur's Gate series, especially "Shadows of Amn."
  3. The Icewind Dale series.
  4. Neverwinter Nights (original and Hordes).
  5. I currently love the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series for its wonderful storytelling.

Favorite Adventure games:

  1. Sierra's old stuff, Space Quest, King's Quest and my most beloved: Hero's Quest.
  2. Gabriel Knight series, especially two.
  3. Lucas Arts' masterpieces: Monkey Island and Grim Fandango.

Favorite other games:

  1. Diablo and Diablo II for the storyline. If they would just sell the animations as a movie, I would buy it. :) (Ok, they do sell them as movies part of the collector's edition)
  2. Heroes of Might and Magic (2, 3 and 4). Hands down, the most addictive game I ever played. Heroes 4 had a masterful sound track.
  3. WarCraft and StarCraft for excellent storytelling.

I think that it is high time Hollywood made some of these amazing story lines into movies.
