Seems like it takes forever, doesn't it. Personally i'm not to far on it or at least i thinkl i'm not that far on it.
Oh yeah...
With all my character on PSO I have more than 800 hours. PSO is the only game, that I played for sooooooo much time. The 2nd game I most played is ToS, and the 3rd is KOTOR. ^__^;;
I have had at least 20 characters but many have been erased through corruption. Most all of them got to lvl 40.
I switch around characters so much, that I only have one in ULT, and the rest in hard/beginning of V.Hard.
i have 1 high lvl and im making some more now, a force hunter and another rager.. the hunter kinda got left behind though

I like all classes, less HUcaseal, RAmarl and FOmarl
My main character is a HUmar(lv131), the 2nd main is a HUcast(lv113), 3rd is a FOnewm(lv82). PSO really makes you play much^^. It never ends, but that's a good point

lol, my mums like have you finished that game yet? and im like, well im about say 1 50th through it...
The only other game i spent a lot of time playing is MUonline, that games gets you addicted till you get mad at it, too many pricks play that game.
