Geros hit level 40 over the weekend. I got my mount (a black stallion) and went for a ride. But, since then, my addiction to the game entered a new phase: I no longer feel this pressing need to advance my character. See, having the mount is a very liberating thing because it allows you to get around the game world faster, but it also frees me from the need to keep playing so that I can get my mount. The next milestones in the game are levels 50 and 60, but already there is a ton of game content available to me. Consequently, I’ve been playing a little less. And if I can’t round up a group to do something I want to do, then I basically say hello to my guildmates, ask if anyone needs help with anything, and logoff to do other things.
