You dont need to pay $ to be good at a MMOG ....and you can pay lots of $ and be bad it
And there you have it. Most ads for games like this give the impression that you can take or leave the game, and play at your own speed. They certainly won't mention the amount of time you'll need to put in once you're in a clan, etc. - please understand, I'm not posting all of this to simply say 'this game is rubbish' - I'm just starting to question why there is only one sort of god-game (this, travian, etc.), and that's it.

I played travian for months, with no fighting, and then suddenly got slaughtered fifteen times a day, with no recourse but to start again or give up. I'm not going to risk doing the same with this game - you may have done well so far, but you don't have to go to deeply into these boards to find a lot of people that have ended up with a similar experience to the one I had playing travain.

But you're half-right, you don't need $$$ to play well at these games - but if you're not going to spend, you certainly need a longer lifespan :-)
