Newb love

Is it normal in other games to log on looking for girlfriends? For some reason I don't imagine this happening in a game like World of Warcraft.

EO's social factor is what has helped it last this long, it is certainly not its good gaming.

Today I see an example of this EO love that everyone seems to be searching for.



Meet Sallydue. I see her walk in, obvious that she is new to the game, and the first thing she asks is.. do you like me?

Now meet Allyourneed, the typical male newb. As you can see in the screenie, he starts out ok by saying that he has a gf and sorry, but at the end, he says no because she is a nub, which shows that gold is what matters most.




Sallydue of course cares about gold too, so she asks him how much gold he says. He proudly answers that he has 137k, and calls her a newb because she has less than that. Apparently 137k makes you a pro in EO.



Poor little Sallydue gets rejected and what happens next?





She looks at me and asks if I like her. Newbs don't let a simple thing like rejection ruin their day.


And this is what makes EO good? A bit hard to believe but yes. People play to interact with each other, not to play the game but this leads to one of the biggest dramas... EO relationships, that is for another post though.
