One of my favorite things when going back to an old favorite MMORPG is creating a new character that gets to benefit from all of the account unlocks that I’ve accumulated over the years. My RIFT characters enjoy an embarrassment of mounts, pets, and bag space from level one, while I’m still getting a thrill out of all of the perks from my SWTOR collector’s edition and cantina packs.
The account unlock that takes the record for the longest benefit for me is in World of Warcraft, as the original collector’s edition gave me a panda pet that I still get with every new WoW Classic character. Bonus!
What about you? In which MMO have you accumulated the most account goodies, and was it worth it?
Every morning, the Massively Overpowered writers team up with mascot Mo to ask MMORPG players pointed questions about the massively multiplayer online roleplaying genre. Grab a mug of your preferred beverage and take a stab at answering the question posed in today’s Daily Grind!
