Why do you like efu?

It could be super interesting! So feel free to write your opinion below!:)

I play efu because it feels like I can be writing a book and semi living it! And it's something always that has caught my interest!

Where else could I play a charismatic jewish Wizard with a hardon for chess, wine, and women and the practical skills to build a castle and the personality of Mel Brooks?

I don't really like EfU, I just like to demonstrate how superior I am to everyone and my status as a DM allows that.

Kinky Kingdom.

Well besides coming here simply because I am addicted, it's really the best escape from reality I could ever hope for.

And oh. It's also refreshing to avoid the raging stupidity that curses so many other online gaming communities.

Just because I <3 all you trolls so much!

To witness Snoteye's acts of superiority.

*angsty* I got no where else to go.

DnDPnPPlayer

Was playing on another RP heavy low-level server for about the last year.  I had just started getting into some factions and whatnot.  Got kinda "stuck" and went exploring then found EFU.
  I stay here because of the depth... I like the fact that you can choose how or why you came to be on this isle.  SO far my characters have been "brought by the cursed stone" this allows me IG to learn about different factions and politcs etc.  Maybe later I'll have characters that were "born" here or are stargazers or whatever... this "frees" up the creation of your character instead of confining it to some "canon" world.  (In PnP I made my own world, that way I could create as the PC's explored, using premade stuff and retrofitting if/when needed)  This feeling of free from IMO allows us (here at EFU) to effect more changes to the world, cutting down forests, building dwarven strongholds, planting gardens in exotic locations, etc.
  And really, Kudos go out to DM's for trying to keep things, in balance, and vibratant... there are times when Niven just goes on "walkabout" to marvel at the places on the isle.. and quickly drink invis potions and run quickly back to relative safety... I begin to feel like familiar places on "safe" and have to remind myself that there are still dangers in the "safe" places of the wilds... that's a pretty cool game (FOR FREE!!!!!)

It's a massive collaborative writing project set inside a fantasy video game. How cool is that?

Decimate_The_Weak

The server is extremely dynamic. The playerbase is creative, and the environment provides immersion that's very hard to match.

I played on other servers for a long time, but none of them have satisfied my nerdy wants & needs as well as EfU:A has.

It's no wonder EfU:A breeds great roleplayers, outstanding concepts, and well-deserved elitists.

EfU:A forever.

Divine Intervention

I'm a great fan of stories and efu basically gives you a blank slate and all the things you need to make epic plots.  Combines the best aspects of games without the grind and lack of background.

Egon the Monkey

Because it's a good balance of great storytelling, a good community, and heavily customised and actively developed gameplay. The setting allows even more concepts than the Underdark due to the Portal and shipwrecks, and PCs can be powerful enough to be heroic or notorious without it feeling like "Oh look, here comes another legendary presence". The multiple scripted systems we have here make the campaign and other NWN worlds seem rather lacking in depth in comparison. The size of the world is also well thought out. I've got horribly lost on, and walked out of, other servers just trying to find PCs because the main town areas had too much sprawl.

Finally, even when there's not much going on IC, the community's fun.
