Greetings everyone!
Going straight to the point, I'd like to inquire about how Siege has fared of late, in terms of people still playing in the shard and so on.
This being 2014, it ought to be common sense to everybody that UO, in spite of everything it was and continues to represent to many of us to date, is not exactly being flooded by newcomers any longer. I'm considering making a come back to UO, but I haven't made up my mind yet.
I tried Siege briefly last year, when I had an active account, but most of what I did was wander around aimlessly and talk to the occasional by-passer. I wasn't exactly motivated at the time, so I never gave the idea of settling down in the shard a second thought.
My relationship with UO is what I would call bittersweet. This is due to the fact that, as much as I have been in love with the game for many years, the first time I actually had a chance to experience UO in OSI was during the previous year. I was introduced to UO by some friends when I was a teenager, who themselves had never tried playing in the original servers. When I did try it in OSI, I realised that UO in much more than any of what is offered in free shards.
My only concern right now is this: should I decide to make a 'comeback' - more like a start, to be honest - will I find a big enough community on Siege, which will make my time playing UO again worthwhile?
Many thanks in advance!
