Played Quakeworld 1996-2000 for about 6 hours per day. Stopped completely in 2000 due to Quake3 that required about 8 hours per day to stay competitive and overall it was slower and not as fun as Quakeworld anyway.
"Pro-Gamer" that I was... I was into competition, so I learnt a lot of things on me and from my team during those years. I don't regret it one second... in fact it was the best years of my life.
But I remember in 1999 or so I was checking the progress on WOW and figured out it would be a kickass game. When it came out, I said to myself: don't even TOUCH that thing. I remember that people that were playing Everquest wasted their time and you don't learn much with those games. It's not based on skills, intelligence or anything.
I never touched any of those games. I even told one of my friend that I did not buy WOW due to all those reasons. One week later, he bought it and now he is addicted and don't even have a job. What a joke.
My new game is to become a millionaire by the end of 2007. That's at least as fun and you actually build on your future.
