Regardless, I would not be stopped in my quest for the social interaction I was lacking in the real world. I didn’t grow up in a household with the biggest budget, nor did my parents see continually paying for a game you had already bought as a wise financial decision. Sadly, my biggest hold-up on participating was the ever-present subscription fee. I would pore over articles on Asheron’s Call, Star Wars: Galaxies, Final Fantasy XI, Ragnarok Online… For every game out there, it had another ten beside it, veritable hydras housing universes inside of them. World of Warcraft and Everquest were the biggest thing around, the novelty of online communities uniting so many around common goals. Long ago, in the era of Netscape and Internet Explorer, I would spend hours surfing the net trying to find any sort of MMO that, A) could run on my brick of a computer, and B) was free.
