do you think this is more a solo game or one where you need to group
to make progress?

Group, unless you're a mist, necro, or dlord. Maybe it's a question
you need to ask yourself. You are 20G+, afterall, genius.

In groups i had the most fun, got the best EQ
Solo I made the most XP and gold, and gained the deepest
understanding of guilds

I was just curious how others see this game in the current form.

i have a lot of fun soloing, to a point. i favor guilds that CAN
solo, but do well in parties as well. i do enjoy partying, if for no
other reason than it takes some of the stress out of doing things,
but solo is fun too.

golding is definitely easiest to do solo. exp rates get noticeably
bigger in parties, but i would say that most of my characters get
the majority of their exp soloing because i can't wait for parties
all day.

however, when is switch to my bigger char who is in a mostly-party
oriented guild, i can generally get a party, so if the underlying
questoin of this post is whether or not IoM is doomed to be a solo
mud, i would have to say no. It might not be a big party mud, but
it's definitely not just a solo mud.

I think it's fairly equal, though you do get exp much faster in a solid party.
I do really dig that you can go with a solo guild, a party guild, or
something more versatile. or switchbodies, or log a secondary

woo choices

Neither; I think it's mostly a social game. Progress is irrelevent.

You mean 'relative'. Progress is relative!
