First game would have been Gemstone 3 off and on in the 90’s. Played a Dwarf Empath.
Second actual MMO was Asheron’s Call on day 1 of release. Played a, forget the race, archer on Leafcull server.

July 3, 1999 EverQuest. I made a dwarf paladin named Lugaidh, logged in and played for a few minutes. Logged out, made a dwarf paladin named Lagaidh, and played almost a year’s worth of time as that character for the next six years. Over 310 days played on that one character that I remember.
You always knew Lagaidh Smif was an original. I had the 55 base charisma to prove it. (Smacks past self.)
Edit – That character is why so many of my hunter pets are named Smif.

Everquest 1999, when game went live I started on Bertoxxulous and moved to Terris-Thule when they did server splits. Played until 2004 and quit after my guild downed Quarm and we all decided it wasn’t worth it anymore.
WoW off and on since then.
I miss the friendships that came from playing EQ, but I don’t miss the endless hours of camping spawns!
WoW is fun but has never had the same feeling.
I was on Seventh Hammer then also! Human Warrior named Mcfie!
Definitely miss UO back in the day, some of the best community in a game I’ve played to this day!
