I have had it with how hard Wildstar has gotten on me. It’s down right ridiculous now. And.. well, I felt it was time to finally swallow my pride and do what I’ve been avoiding for many, many years of playing an MMORPG; joining a Guild.
I went to Illium, and to the Guild Register (as I was told this is also where you go to join a Guild) and asked. Immediately I got a PM telling me about how good their Guild is. And that’s when I was having second thoughts. This felt so pathetic and low, especially asking people “how do I play my class” and not taking their advice, as it requires me to fucking learn. I just want to play the damn game!! If I wanted to learn, I would go back to school!
Finally, though… I decided now is the time to hang up my soloing crown and join the guild “Beyond the Event Horizon”. It’s a nice name, I’ll give it that. And they seem to have a well-structured Guild (even giving me buffs).
Most of them seem friendly and eager to help, which is always good. Others… well. Meh. Whatever. I didn’t come here to judge people, I came because I’m fucking desperate and need help. I really do. And I felt it was better off to join a Guild than to ask a bunch of random people in Zone Chat. This isn’t like Guild Wars 2, where I was able to receive help without needing a guild.
This guild also does raiding, PvP, and stuff like that. So I got a “jack of all trades” guild. However, I feel I can’t always rely on them to help me level. I wanted to join a ‘social leveling Guild’ that would also help newbies. But I feel I should stay here, and just hope for the best. Maybe we’ll get along… or they’ll kick me out because they can’t stand my guts.
I joined their forum too, and signed an application to the ‘best’ of my abilities. Though it was more in the lines of “Yeah, I’m a soloer”. They claim nothing will happen to my status. I can only see what happens. Personally, I feel they should kick me out due to using the word “desperate” a lot. They’re going to feel… used. :/
But they wanted me to be honest. And honest I was. If I stay in their guild, then that’s good. If I find myself not in it when I log in… then I will know what happened and not even bother questioning them.
If the second thing happens, I may just consider quitting Wildstar and going back to Guild Wars 2 (or maybe even ESO if I get the issue fixed). It’s just too difficult on me. I want something that won’t fucking punish me for sucking at trying to kill something.
