Hey guys~! 
I'm completely new to MMORPG games. I only play CS:GO and RUST and would love to give MMORPG's a try. I'd love to get to know some of the community, and something I'd love to know and have you guys share is what your most favorite / memorable experience is in the genre. Have you only played this genre as your main games? Maybe you're like me and have never played an mmo ever before?

It's also where Makinoji was born so it will always hold a special place in my heart and history.
My most recent being achieving First Week Ahead of the Curve (Which means killing the raids last boss in the first week it comes out) last expansion while raiding. Our group was pretty average, we had decent gear from the prior raiding tier but still had gear form the one before it so we weren't sure we were gunna get there at all. But we all worked together and got to achieve something we were all so proud of. It's hard to explain if you haven't played WoW but I can recall that fight, the mechanics, the hours and hours we spent together working towards that goal.
I won't forget it or many other experiences that make me love MMORPGs.
We didn't prep for it we just went for it. Turns out we fit rather well with each other. It was a ginourmous fun adventure sitting in TS screaming at each other the most ridiculous things. He was a firemage at the time and had a pyroball, a huuge flaming ball, to throw and every time he had that proc to instantly cast it (usually you would have to cast it for 10 seconds) it would go
"I have it up"
'good good, wait a bit, just a bit, PUT IT IN HIS FACE, PUT! THE FIREBALL! RIGHT IN HIS FACE!'
It was stupid good times and just like that I got a new friend for years to come. Later he would want to play amnesia so he private streamed it and I watched it so he wasn't alone during it. xDD (this game, even just watching it...<shudder>)
Most of my memories go hand in hand with making new friends, but there are some extremely adrenalin pumping ones. Being the last man standing and just surviving so the last % of boss hp vanishes to dots and the little damage I can still contribute will forever be in my memories.
I play through all genres, from rythmgames like Osu!, to strategy, shooters and whatnot. Everything has something to offer, but mmorpgs are special to me.

You remembered me of the time, when two friends and me went 3v3 ranked to get the mount saddle. PvP could be tons of fun. XD (we were a combat rogue, fire mage and resto druid in warlords of draenor [let me tell you wod combat rogue was one of the best iterations of the combat rogue])
The dual class system is what convinced me to jump on the ashes of creation hype train, it reminded me so of GW1 one of the first mmorpgs that i ever played xD I played a Derwisch/Assassin and it was tons of fun in PvP

There are many others though and it's because of the fun times that I still play MMO's all these years later.
I also had a wonderful guild in Black Desert. We had parties in the guild leader’s home (often to show off the cash shop underwear), amazing fishing excursions, And the guild quests kept everyone working together and gave us common goals to work towards. I can’t count how many times they came and saved me from PvPers when I was leveling horses.
Then of course there is WOW, which I have so many memories of I don’t know where to begin! Started with my brother, joined some of my husband’s friends by the time MoP hit, and have been with them since ( off and on).
TL;DR : Find a group that has a similar interest and goals, then you can’t go wrong!
Awesome~! That sounds like so much fun~!
Nuclear warheads~?!?! Oh my god lol cx
That sounds amazing~! It's so awesome that you can sit back and tell stories about these kinds of games~! ^-^ The only thing is I'm not even sure what interests me because I've never played an MMORPG! I was kinda born after WoW and I hadn't seen any huge other mmos. I think fighting the huge bosses looks really cool n.n and I love customizing my armor and stuff. I only ever played pvp fps games so I feel like this will be awesome~! Thank you! I hope you make many more amazing memories!
That's awesome~!!! I guess ragnaros was a hard boss in the game? I haven't really ever played it but that seems amazing if you were all celebrating and having so much fun!
Hahahaha yeah I'm in the same boat~! I haven't really even played any solo~! I hope you have TONS of fun though and enjoy ashes!! n.n I'm gunna see if I can play with a guild but I've never played an mmo so I doubt anyone would want to play unless they're new~!
That sounds amazing~! I hope ashes can bring the same kind of enjoyment for you~! I'd love to be able to gather with friends inside of a big warm hall, like maybe something on your freehold..? ^-^ That could be awesome!
That sounds amazing~!
Oooooo~!!!! that sounds like you did an awesome job! I'm not even sure what I like, I'm not sure what it's called but like... Being a healer and tank and damage and stuff... I know there's a LOT more than that in ashes. I think the summoner sounds really cool. I forget where I heard it but I THINK it's a class in ashes and I really like the sound of it.
wait it isn't ?
That's amazing~! So many people talk about long term friends in MMORPGs
That sounds amazing~!
That seems like a lot of work~! It's awesome that you could do it~!!
That's a great problem to have~! I'm glad you have so many amazing memories~! I hope Ashes can provide MANY many more~!!!!
I'll play summoner and afterwards at an unknown level you can choose a secondary class... I'll take cleric to rise up as an necromancer!
There are several archetypes which can emerges when you choose a summoner as your starting class. You should check wiki ashes of Creation.
That sounds awesome~! Yeah I don't even know what I like doing since I've never played an MMO really, I know there's like Tanks Damage and Healing but I have no idea what I'd like cx maybe you could do a bit of the three? but then I assume that you'd just be like... okay at doing them all, but not actually great or good at any of them!
