I never read lorebooks , I just use the wiki when I ' m curious about something . However , I try to listen to every quest ' s dialogue and immersive myself in the situation . This game is pretty hard to immerse myself in sometimes , but I keep coming back because I finally have an appearance for my character I like no shiny armors for me , I take a much more modest approach . When I ' m not trying to finish a zone only to find another quest somewhere , I ' m on my first zone , The Rift , I ' m mingling with people in the zone chat , finding groups to hang out at , and sometimes role playing . Just yesterday I did nothing but hang out at the werewolf shrine with like , 40 other players . It was a blast ! I ' ve met some people while questing , joined their guild of two people me and them , and sometimes I ' ll find a friend to quest with . I guess my tldr is I play it mostly for the social aspect . I ' ve owned the game for almost a week , and I ' m still under level 25 and haven ' t finished any zones yet .
