Today and yesterday I played AC2 for a few hours cuz I work during the week and by the time I get home it's usually majorly laggy (at least it has been this week). I've been exploring around, taking the portal rings and jumping in player-summoned portals. I went to lugian island by taking a portal outta somewhere, I think it was near Mayoi. Then I joined up in fellowships and camped lifestones like the l33+ p33pZ do heh. I finally managed to train in a specialty, I chose sorceror because it is the l33+ thing for an archer to do. Unfortunately, most of the skills in AC2 suck really bad. The only ones I like are critical hit cuz it does about 100+ damage per hit and flame arrow cuz it sets monsters on fire and causes ongoing damage, plus it looks cool seeing a flaming hot monster running toward you. I don't like the other ones though, although a few of them look kinda cool when cast, but I think they look better in AC than AC2. The overall graphics are better in AC2 though, I went back and played AC for about 2 minutes last week and it was so ugly I couldn't stand it. Hehe. There are a lot of little touches I do like about AC2 though, like the way your character looks around while running, and the diving stuff and the way vermin's noses wiggle when they're kicking your butt, and the way drudges overact when you kill them. But the gameplay is really really boring, even moreso than AC, and exploring isn't as fun cuz there doesn't seem to be as much variety in the landscape as in AC, but I haven't been everywhere yet. The only neat place I've found so far though is near the haunted caves where it's all spooky and desolate. Anyway, below are a couple pix from my weekend adventures.

Oooh, level 20, whee! And to think Saturday morning I was only level 9 hehe.

If you want to know how to get to Lugian Island, go to Mayoi and run around till you see something that needs repair.
