Single play ever again?

[-silencer-]

I am fairly certain that if multiboxing for some reason would be outlawed by Blizzard, I would quit playing

I'm with you on that one.

I've been playing single on Age of Conan for about a week, and it's a fun game that doesn't seem to lend itself to multiboxing at all as easily as WoW. Levels are gained a bit quicker, and grouping to grind xp is more popular due to the way XP works, so I'm happy playing solo on AoC. I used to dual-box Diablo2 way back in the day, but that was more 'boosting/muling' than boxing due to the lack of a /follow.

I don't think I could ever go back to only playing a single character. Every now and then I get on my 70 rogue for some PvP fun with friends, but I find the lack of multitasking involved with multiboxing to be boring now. Even when playing my rogue, I'm looking at my other blank monitor for some extra toons to increase dps and lay down some heals. About the worst part though is not having every profession, especially disenchanting, when I'm playing solo.

I agree, I'd go back to EQ or something... I'm limmited with my crappy computers though. :S

...or when crafting.... it's a pain to try to read such a small font in a very small window.

I get bored to death even when playing one character with a friend.

I don't even think I'll be able to solo play an mmo ever again. However, I will solo play to learn the game. Then once I felt I have learned the game enough then I'll start multiboxing it right away. Which will probably happen with Warhammer.

Not me, I multi-box crafting and us PiP to swap out and start other toons with combines..probably why my toons are only level 24.... :whistling:

I'm probably going to carebear boost my DK up to 80 when wotlk comes out but then after that I'm definetly going back to mb'ing. I enjoy doing quests, especially ones I haven't done 20 times, solo. Doing quests as a multi-boxer can sometimes be more of a p.i.t.a. then it's worth.

I really enjoy raiding as a solo player. It's a nice relaxing break from multitasking, even if I'm doing a "complicated" role...

Agreed, I don't play any of my solo characters any more.

Since I have a life outside of WoW, I don't much care about guild socialization for things like raids, etc. That being said, solo play is pretty much teh same experience you can get out of any number of FPS's or RPG's out there, so what would be the point of playing an MMO solo? Furthermore, I just can't see any challenge in playing solo chars in MMOs any more after having multiboxed. All my future MMO decisions will probably be predicated upon how well they multibox.

Maybe we all need to band togeter and make a NEW game that forces you to multi-box!!!! :P
