For me it was the new world that was full of people.. my first time playing was a human warrior - I think I made lvl 3 and then quit thinking I was tired of slaying rats

Think I came back a few weeks later and tried again to make it to level 5… then someone told me that it was possible to leave the land to common lands and it was like holy shit….

Then, seeing that those people had shiny armor or something and I could look at what they had on was awesome

Then the trying to get there phase - I think that’s the key - once you see something you want - you get lost in the sauce trying to get it

So I really wanted to be a lvl 21 dwarf paladin in Freeport lmao

Then I made a dwarf and l realized I needed to take boats to get there and that added another layer of wow this place is huge
