I drooled.
The game seems ok, but the Foundry makes me quiver with the staggering amount of endless possibilities.

I fell.... up... the stairs, and hit my chin and now I'm sporting a lovely cut. It's not lovely. It hurts.
And I fell UP the stairs. I wont get any ladies with this scar.
Chicks dig scars. Actually... in my experience they don't. Not my scars at least. You're probably doomed.

If it makes you feel better (and it probably wont) I fell DOWN the stairs, while having a cramp on my operated leg. Hurted like crap. And I have a sexy lump on my head.
At least it got my kid an excuse to play nurse with me yesterday. Though her treatment seemed limited to just feeding me toy food, and wrapping my leg in "bandages"

I'm still sick, for the 11th day now. Working for the first time in almost that long. I don't want to go out and work while sick...

I am slowly becoming addicted. The F2P model is great for people who play other games, because all paying does is speed up cooldowns, and if you are busy with other games, then letting your crafting people spend the full 2-4 hours doing something isn't a huge pain.
Most currencies are available in game, and even the real money currency is something you can trade for (at exorbitant prices, though- lol).
I am having fun with the combat system- the animations are a lot of fun. I'm currently playing a rogue, and the combat style is great, and pretty intuitive for someone who plays a lot of video games. The combat on my rogue and mage kind of remind me of Dragon Age 2, but with much more mobility in terms of running, jumping, rolling out of the way to dodge cone attacks.
My favorite part is the overall feel of the world. Cities are to scale, and fully populated with people you'll never talk to. While questing, you have to look out for drapes of cloth that are actually doorways with tapestries over them, for traps that are both obvious and barely noticeable if you are not a rogue. I find myself hopping between beams to get at bags of coins, or inching my way across ledges that don't look like you can walk on them so I can disarm a trap. And they're basing it in Forgotten Realms ala 4th ed., so there is plenty of existing lore for them to pull from.
@HSR and Elura- Some chicks dig scars. I dig scars, so there's my sample size and it's 100%. I'm not into other women, but on guys they can be pretty sexy.(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##ElhonnaDS##DELIM##

How did you manage to avoid work for 11 days and not get fired?
I'm a free agent. I'm not technically employed. I choose which days I will work, at my leisure. If I choose to work on days they have work for me, I work. Sometimes, I can choose to work days, and they will not have work, so I don't work. On the days I don't work, because I choose not to, or because there is no work, I don't get any money.... none.

Yeah usually you don't get money when you don't work. I think that's like the point.
It's a bit more complicated than all that. I come into work, on the days I choose to work, and there is no work. So, I sit on my laptop all day. BUT, I pay for daycare. I pay for gas. I waste the whole day. I sit here for 8-12 hours, doing nothing, but spending money, to make nothing. I sat here for 9 days once (excluding sunday). It gets very expensive to make no money.
Edit: Madonna just wants attention.

I'm not sure if anyone else does this but I started a Rogue character too because they looked awesome. I was really enthusiastic about playing it but I made it along with 3 friends with the plan to level together. Of course, getting 3 or 4 people online with time to play at the same time isn't always easy so I made an alt (a Mage because I usually play casters and the animations are great) to solo on. However one of the friends and I are almost always online at the same times so we decided to make characters to level as a duo so now my highest level character at 28 is a tank >.<
Luckily tanking is pretty cool in this game. It uses a D&D-influenced Mark system instead of taunts which is causing a bit of consternation on the forums but once you get your head around it it's fun and the proactive use of shields gives you a really tanky feel.
Neverwinter is a lot like Tera with a little bit of GW2 and ToR (companions) thrown in for good measure. I'm really enjoying it.

Oh yeah- I forgot you get companions too. They are not all that dynamic from a story perspective- closer to Skyrim than Tor- but it's nice that someone has your back.

Also maybe look in to getting another job? That sounds like a good idea.
When I do get work, I make more money than.... well... I make a lot of money, like really,
a lot
of money. Plus my job is completely stress free, easy, beautiful, relaxing, and decent exercise without being overly exerting. I basically walk around and work on my tan and 6 pack.
It just sucks when I'm sick, or don't get work.

I leveled a rogue first to power to 15 so I could start messing around with the Foundry, but I'm going to be leveling a cleric now that that's out of the way. I can't stand pure dps classes :P
I wish I had friends who were into the game.... but I'm pretty much the last of my friends who still plays MMOs.
