Do any of your friends play pso?, have they ever? Options

[Dive]

My brother and a couple friends of mine used to play v1, but they quickly lost interest and moved on to other games, diversions etc. I don't know what keeps certain people playing pso for as long as most of us have. This is by far the longest I have ever played a single game.

Do your friends or family think you are strange for holding onto a game for so long? My brother is always trying to get me to join him and his Clan for some Quake 3, or Enemy Territory action. That's really fun but after a while I think to myself that I could be getting another level or knocking off a few minutes on one of my C-Mode characters.

So does anybody you know in real life play pso?

Well it seems like one month is the standard duration for the non-pso addicted (which I suppose is about how long I spend on a decent game), vs. the um....2+ years for most of us, heh.

I have literally tried to push this game on friends like a dealer, "Come on..try it...you'll really like it...come on...you know you want to." to no avail. I launched into a campaign during the early V.1 days to bring my best friend into PSO, showing her what an amazingly cool game it was. "Look!," says I, "Cool sci-fi stuff! Talk and play with other people! Free to play!" No dice. She just kind of wrinkled her nose and asked why my HUnewearl was wearing "moon boots", didn't those go out in the early 80's? *sigh*
