Yes, I Signed Up For The ST:O Beta

Is it STO or ST:O? I had to sell out to a twitter/blogger by twittering his "party line" to get the beta key. Then I had to spend an entire day, well 12 hours downloading the file on my crappy Acer Netbook. Nice to know that thing was good for something. An awful lot to go through. I started it before I left for work and it didn't finish until way after bedtime. Plus I had to install BootCamp & Windows XP on my beautiful 13 inch MacBook Pro just to be able to play.

I created a character before heading to bed. The next morning I played a little more, it was very intriguing and I can see the possibilities. I was sad, because I didn't want to like it. I play a little MMORPG called World of Warcraft and I also do a little podcast for that game. The thought of taking on another MMORPG scared me, and the thought of leaving WoW scared me even more.
