Hehe, well Eddy, it was high school

No one really gave a damn about grades back then, besides my exams turned out fine

Hopefully the game will meet my expectations and I will have an excuse to buy a new laptop to take to work with me every night. That will give me a good seven hours of time sink every night.

Avid, second life, pr0n, hardcore, they all mean the same to me.

I voted Avid.

Totally depends on how I dig the game, last game I sorta liked, I played (after giving up school for it) about 15 hours a day during the week and weekends i'ld go hang out with friends etc.

Otomox · 12-05-2007, 06:44 AM

Hm wheres the option it depends what im doing....
Sometimes i can play everday 6h+ in a year.... and then it can happen i cant play for 6 months+.....

Ipmia · 12-05-2007, 06:51 AM

this thread is stupid.

Hellriser · 12-05-2007, 07:53 AM

If I sit down to play, I play from min 6 hours to max 20-24. Sometimes maybe more. If I don't have at least 6 hours free to play, I don't play at all that day. This is my program for the first 3-4 months if I really like the game. After that, I switch on /nolife off mode. But I still play lots... lots lots

N0rdic Ninja · 12-05-2007, 07:58 AM

During the week I'll play for a couple hours at a time, usually 2-3ish hours. I'm usually busy during the day on Saturdays but at about 10pm I'd probably get on for a good 5-6 hours or so. On Sundays though it's usually no holds bared gaming.

I'm probably around 20-30 hours/week.

yeah, aionsource isnt the whole aion community, aionsource members and other aion fansite members are just people who are lucky enough to have found out about this game early..

platino · 12-05-2007, 06:23 PM

on beggining i will be hardcore.
but after reaching lvl cap+top gear will just log to kill enemys on abyss,epic raids,castles
grinding is boring

Kap · 12-05-2007, 06:36 PM

i like the comment about the basement... maybe that should be its own informal poll how many ppl still live at home.

6-9 hours a day, games are like a 2nd job to me. take time off to have some fun and what not, but playing video games is a hell of a lot lot cheaper than drinking in NYC.

Meleoffs · 12-06-2007, 09:07 AM

3-6 hours a day because of school, if I didn't have school it'd be around 6-9 a day, because after that I'd get a migraine and pass out.
