I’m having a pretty great time on Lord of the Rings Online’s new progression server, partially because it’s keeping the community in the same level range and zones. That means I keep bumping into people all the time, and I’ve become pretty liberal with the “invite to fellowship” button when I see someone doing the same thing as me.
The other night there was a Rune-keeper who was obviously farming the same ruins, so we teamed up to blast through the deed even faster. It wasn’t long before we fell into a rhythm of killing and healing, punctuated by casual chat about classes and the server experience so far. It turned what would’ve been a routine evening into a much more memorable one.
For today’s discussion, share the last time that you went out on a social limb and partnered up with a stranger outside of a dungeon or raid. What was it like? What did you learn?
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!
