Guest sansei Report post Posted November 19, 2004 I can't remember what i did on my first day, but from log file it's something like this: - looked at a bunny - attacked it - angels were sent to assist me - looks like there has to be something easier than a mean rabbit - so i started to look around on the isle - cool i found a wooden house so i went in and there was a RAT inside !! - run for your lives - its coming to get me! - I really tought animals are aggresive - well the rat didn't attack me but something worse happened - I GOT STUCK in tha house... with a rat inside - i couldn't find the door so after a while i attacked the evil rat, the angels helped me again - this time they helped me in getting out of that house - the game became very confusing so i sat down and listened to ppl talk in newbie channel for few hours Next day, full of knowledge (from tutorials) i started harvesting veggies - and i made like 10 lvl in harvesting BTW: if you programmers read this topic you can make a better tutorial than those #HINTs i had, something that will show newbies how to move camera, talk locally and in channel and recover hit points. For me that info would save hours of experiments and reading channel garbage. I think it's important also becouse a lot of people leave the game after their first day.

Enderoth Report post Posted November 22, 2004 (edited) Ohoh nice - some nostalgic feelings coming up by reading this thread For almost 1 year, I started playing EL (omg time is really running away...) On my first day Entropy awaited me at Newbie Island and told me how to pick flowers - then me and another player (whos name I forgot) sat down and talked with him about some developing stuff, like the transparent windows, that looked quite cool to me. My first thought after log in the first time was: wow cute gfx for a free ORPG 0.0 Then I finished newbie quest and discovered IP for some hours - till I finally got stuck in the upper evil tavern room (didnt know to _use_ the door.. A nice mod beamed me out finally (I guess it was Colossus), then I started the granny quest and decided to come back next day. Well, the result is known...

Soldus Report post Posted November 22, 2004 on my first day i made it not only from newbie island to IP, but also to WS-map and i got killed by everything that moved, i am not even sure if i might have met a garg... anyways i found a bag close to WSC with wondrous things in it, and while i was still looking at them some1 came and asked if i had found it...well he got all his great stuff back...i remember a shiny sword and a brown cape...and he gave me 1000 (!!!) gold reward, i was like OMG, i'll never need to worry about money anymore in my EL-life ... that was long before the great inflation, so it was really something for a noob i could go on for hours....to make it short, i was HOOKED !!!
