Vanguard – I’m back!
It’s been awhile since I’ve played Vanguard. I had quit for awhile there because real life was getting in the way and I felt like I wasn’t making any progress in the game. In fact, I got drunk one day and even tried to write up a “25 reasons to quit Vanguard now” paper…because anybody who plays Vanguard can tell you it’s a love-hate relationship with the game. It’s the greatest “hardcore” MMO out there but nobody knows about it…or gave up on it because of bugs/performance issues.
I even tried to get two friends playing, but they all said the same thing when they would play – “I can’t find a group. Seems like nobody is low level.” It’s true. Try going to a video game store and buy a copy of Vanguard…you won’t be able to. For fun, I try to look for Vanguard whenever I’m in a Gamestop or Best Buy and I never can. There hasn’t been any advertising either. My friend even had a problem downloading the digital download and had to wait days for a response email.
The only people who play the game already have high level characters and have been playing since release. You’ll be hard pressed to find a true newbie. There are low levels – they’re just alts. Sometimes I think the Vanguard community is just 100 people with a bunch of characters.
Either way, I’m back, bitches! Playing the Druid as my main and getting badass and rich.
