I had the opposite scenario, a friend of mine started me on MMO’s many years ago, originally playing Warhammer Online of all things. It’s actually how I ended up being a healer. We’re actually on opposite sides of the world these days but the MMO thing is still on-going.
What you need to find is something your friend actually likes before you boost or any of that jazz. What’s important is a mutual interest. For my friend and I it was Warhammer at the time, which could’ve been any WH game it wouldn’t have matter, but it was an MMO which we knew nothing about.
What a long road thats been, anywho… My point is, it’s more about what you have in common with that person than the game itself. If you can link that, then anything that occurs after that is just icing on the cake.
Flashbacks of 18 hours of solid pvp…ahh those were the days
