Are you a Collector?

The Daily Grind: Are you a collector? (Massively)

The joy of MMOs is in part the fact that many goals are set by players, and the collectors do a marvelous job of setting one for themselves. Some goals, like collecting every little vanity pet in a game that offers them, can be accomplished as a side-goal to the core leveling process. Others, like leveling every class, can even require more character spaces than the game normally gives you. Do you have overarcing collection goals when you play games? What are they? Do they interfere with your normal play, or are they the whole reason you keep playing?

I have to admit that I enjoy collecting things in games. The best part of EQ2 was completing the various collections of items you could find laying about the world. My bags and bank usually get crowded (as they are in LOTRO now) and eventually I have to clean them out, but collecting various things is always fun. That's probably why I enjoy gathering more than crafting!

Yep. I always have been... and always will be a packrat. You never know when you may need something! Usually the moment after you sell/trash an item. heh

I have a growing collection of dragon avatars. 42 species so far

I'm doing soo well for 2 years of collecting! I only have 86,000 items in my inventory in SL... Thank God there are no limits. 0.o

I'm a collector in-game, and IRL. In UO, I had plenty of rares and other hard to find items. I had pretty much every trophy available in DAoC too. I collected a lot of things in WoW as well, like sets of gear and whatnot (which I also did in WAR).

At least I'm not as bad as Kul.
