It wants ingame money for everything.. even to travel, so its a grind fest for everything.

Actually, you need in-game gold for very little really. As far as travel goes, if you go up to a Wayshrine you can travel for free to any other area's Wayshrine in the game that you have previously discovered. You do have the option of instant travel for gold if you don't want to go to the many Wayshrines scattered around each map. Horses can cost about 43K gold, or if you bought the Imperial Edition you can buy the Imperial horse for 2 gold or spend 900 Crowns (like Zen) in the store for the same mounts sold for in-game gold. Other than that your only other recurring expenses are for repairs and maybe some crafting materials you haven't looted out in the world. Of course the usual things can be bought if you wish like bank space, character respecs, vendor sold equipment, and at the Guild Traders that are similar to an auction house.

I was a bit put off by it's monthly cost, but not it seems to have gone free (well apart from the upfront cost). Is it worth playing? Or should I just crack open Skyrim again to get my fix?

I know that my friend is really addicted to it.. but for me.. i bought the game and played it for a mth since the day of the launch.. but it didn't give me the skyrim feel of excitement and exploration.
But it was fun none the less if your used to.. and like, Fantasy MMORPG you will like it.

But.. Skyrim.. it isnt (in my personal view) .. though it may have changed. My friend keep telling me to jump back into it.. So as soon as I get my new PC, ill be going back to it for another try.. you need a good up to date PC or PS4/XB1 to play it properly.
Im glad its not completely free.. as you tend to get annoying troll players.

So after a year of not playing, I tried the game out, again and they have brought it back to being fun again. :) Back in and having fun! :D

Oh Em Gee!!!!!! Thank You for this!!!

Don't worry about it, we all have times like that at some point, what's important is that you did it, and you've learned and grown as a person because of it, and welcome back

The wonderful thing about a social community full of trek lovers is that we can all understand that sometimes life happens and that sometimes the best thing to do is step away and come back when the head is cleared..

Glad you were able to come back and issue an apology, while I did not and will not read the original post I welcome you back to the family with arms wide open.

I suppose I can make a Liberated Human Engineer ... that uses Antiproton ... on an Astika Class. I, clearly, have not thought this through :)

Show me where to sign UP!!!

I like the plug in ship ornaments better as well. Trouble is I am too lazy and clumsy handed to switch out every single piece. Most of them are not compatible with newer light strands.

Hallmark addressed that issue. :-)

The good thing about voluntary social groups is that you can come and go as you please, hang out for hours upon hours or simply make a 5 minute appearance. Things happen and life matters need to be taken care of, or, a time to unplugg is often needed, either way, in the end no worries and feel free to come and go :).

There have been some... external pressures... suggesting that we should re-theme our tree to something more normal after five years of it being nothing but Trek ornaments, but now with this new ship...!

solution, get a black tree just for the trek ships and have the other tree for the non-nerd things.

Hi Margali! ^.^ I nearly forgot about World of Warships. I remember aching to play that.

Heresy and blasphemy!

I've got nearly all of the Hallmark ship ornaments for my Christmas tree, so adding the Enterprise-C is pretty much a must for me. I like the ones that plug directly into the mini-light strand for power better than the battery operated ones, but I'll still be buying it. I'll just need this and the original series Connie to complete my collection!

hmm, I can't decide now, the eaglemoss 1701-C or this light up version?


if the light up version has a good enough paintjob, I'll probably go with that... nice to see the 1701-C getting more that the furuta and amt options though.

I'm excited about the Enterprise C, but sad about the Kirk and Spock ornament. Fitting though. :-)
