A little about myself.

In Guild Wars
I got a couple characters I play on. Dinadan Barabarosa is probably my newest and favorite one. My oldest character is my Mesmer/Ranger Seryll Zairs from the original release of Guild Wars, and there's also a bunch of characters in between, a noteable one is Kahn Ferdal, my Ritualist/Mesmer. I enjoy PvE'ing as much as I enjoy PvP'ing. Alliance Battling keeps me going if I'm not helping alliance mates getting an item/skill/completion on a mission. Not big on the Favor of the Gods and the Underworld and all that but I suppose I can do that too. My guild is the Lords of the Last Apocalypse [LLA], even though I'm really the only guy in the guild that gets on anymore. ;[

Outside of Guild Wars
Well, I'm going to college for a Computer Science degree, and after that another degree in Game Design or Real Time Simulation. I'm working on morphing my NES into a super gaming computer, as soon as I get the money, and also working on a new online game project, of course it's just an idea right now. My goal is to become a top notch Game Designer of my own company one day, but I'm aiming for a AI Programming position for now. I live in the shithole that is the New York side of Niagara Falls (not to be confused with Ontario, Canada's side of Niagara Falls.), but it's a warm shithole where I've grown to it, having grown up here and met the best of people.

Other games I play, well I do love my PlanetSide, and when I get the chance to pay for it again I plan on getting back into the groove of the MMOFPS. Some people say it gets repetitive, others say it shouldn't have a monthly fee, but I just love killing those smurfs and elmos. Other than that, I enjoy a good LAN of Halo, I don't like Xbox Live at all I don't think you should have to pay for a game that on the PC you don't have to pay for. I had Xbox Live when I got Halo 2 (such a disappointment), which it only charged 50 bucks a year. The 360's Xbox Live is ridiculous. But yeah other than that, I'm more of an old school adventuring and RPG fan. Final Fantasy 6 is probably my favorite (I know, not 7?!), along with Seiken Densetsu 3 (thank hackers for that three player support!), and Legend of Dragoon had always had a place in my heart. I do gotta say I admire Gears of War, and I love Tribes. Unreal Tournament has always been kinda neat but meh, but I do love Star Wars Battlefront and Armored Core. Other than that, I stick with my gnome cleric in our local Dungeons and Dragons group, Ibblenoff Trumpski Applebearington. I've worked on scripts for Ragnarok Online servers, other than that not many other MMOs have caught my eye like Guild Wars.

Other things
I do plan on playing Guild Wars: Eye of the North.

I do plan on betaing and playing Guild Wars 2.
