It takes some time to learn to slow down and not grind. Some of my favorite memories of MMORPGs were the scenery - Asheron's Call had some incredible Japanese-themed gardens. And there was nothing quite like watching the two moons rising over Naboo in Star Wars: Galaxies. WoW has some really nice spots too - I love Stranglethorn Vale, a jungle on the south tip of one continent. Or the planes of Mulgore, and the forests of Ashenvale.... My point? I don't understand people who just grind out levels either. First off, I suspect that’s the reason most people get married, MMORPG players or not.
