What motivates you?

Post by timtam »

Just wondering....what motivates you to play SRO?. Your guild? Friends? The thought of better skills/damage? What makes you play this game, and grind hours on end?

Personally, my friends motivate me. Were all competitive and so we try to be better then each other, and so we grind alot....

(Eh, sorry if there's already a thread like this)

My friends play a huge influence, under consideration that my friends are also guild member(s) who reside in my guild. They've been patient with me and I've been exceptional to them. They're loyal to the end, I should say. I mean, grinding to wear the next degree of armor/protector/ and or garments is a personal goal, yes. Though, they really don't play much of an initiative with me.

So, my aspiration is my guild members and other friends.

Main modivation is guild/friends. I feel lucky im in with a great, loyal guild that is always fun being with every day i play this game. What modivates me from getting from one lvl to the next is new gear and new stuff. I kinda set short term goals for myself and try to get to those.

What motivates me is.....nothing... i've been 47 for the last week, dont grind, pvp/job by day, stall at night, I'm striving to get to 48 -.- I steal a lot, don't steal from female chars thogh :P but males at my level or below.... pwnage, i steal because hunters have no use for hunting, only hunter xp that they'll lose when they do another job with a meaning, after the job update - im hunting

to go exploring other lands with my friends and to make a guild of friends... i also want to buy a grey wolf. =)

i never sp farming... i think it is good to have tons of skills, but not indisensable... at high levels i can go to the cave like some1 here said and start farming... its boring to kill monsters like yeohas...

I know I always quote you, but hey :P
I find it hard to motivate myself to grind for 3 hours, and thats with GT. However recently it's been that I'm going to be level 54 soon (when I start sp farming) and I can finaly get the sp farming out the way and 0gap to level 70.
Things that also keep me going, are my great guild :)

i've met so many people on aege that it's just fun to hang around, do some jobbing and farm sp in the meantime so i'll be become a more decent hybrid then i am atm.

what really motivates me i dunno, the game is simply too fun to play and the relationships ive build during my stay on aege is also something i would come back to every single time. im in vendetta atm, and having a blast with the people so far :)

and i wanna fight yarkan sometime soon too :D

Killing non-botters always motivates me to play this POS game called SRO.

So you play a game you hate, only to kill people who don't use cheats?
