10+ years ago. Lots of alcohol consumed in between.Tortage*. Sorry he's an Astros fan.
But funny enough I just played Tortage again in AoC, dead game and all, and it still holds up well.

I felt like I was too dumb to play Secret World, as much as I liked it. When it was fresh, lets just say I wasnt in the state of mind at the time to handle games that made me think. But I fucking loved the combat and skill tree back then. Heard they changed that and.. I cant for the life of me understand why they would have changed that.Secret World is easily my favorite MMO just for the sheer uniqueness of the game. Such a cool setting and I loved the skill wheel, and being able to mix and match everything. Tornquist was really a pretty revolutionary game developer, and it's a shame he bailed on it. If I remember it was a pretty big passion project of his.
I always felt like I missed out during quests as I just picked what I thought "I" would pick. So I'd end up in some vague middle ground type of area and, iirc, wouldnt be able to choose certain options cause I wasnt an ultra douche or an angelic faggot.Man, I loved The Secret World so much. I forget how much I enjoyed playing that game. I'm almost done with Sentinel, when I am done I need to back and finish up a few of the other origin stories, particularly Sith Inquisitor. I now wish I hadn't gone full Dark Side Sith Warrior. Not that the stories bad, I just don't enjoy playing the Dark Side so much; the choices in some cases are nuanced but in most cases are mustache twirlers. I always thought that when you are making choices in these stories, the Dark Side choices should read as if they make sense and are justified from the Dark Side perspective; instead they are written to provide clarity for the player.
XP is still plenty insane if you have a sub. I have been playing an IA again to relearn the class, and I am already 36 just from doing the MSQ and quests on 3 planets. I am just about to switch back to my OG since he had all the shit done up to the end of vanilla.FunCom is the only MMO company I'll buy whatever they make, even knowing going into it that it'll be a bug addled overcomplicated mess, because I end up loving it despite that.
The SWTOR stories are nice, did the dark side ones, then was going to do Light Side but the 25x exp buff went away. The Sith Warrior companion developing a shock collar fetish after a while was pretty lulz

Meh. On the plus side I can treat it as a 15/mo occaisional dip into a BioWare story.This game is being put into maintenance mode, "development" handed over to Broadsword and EA is peacing out. That's the company that keeps the lights on for Ultima Online and Dark Age of Camelot.
My guess is it still must make a decent chunk. Next year I’ll plow the rest of the stories and the fallen empire.Ya, the move to Broadsword probably means that's more or less it for the game in terms of new content, save for perhaps the occasional cash shop item and small scale updates
At least they aren't shuttering it. Companies like NCSoft would have shut down the servers with like a 1 month advance notice lol
Old MMO games have a reputation of having spaghetti code. So it may be a monumental undertaking to modify it to a low bug, satisfactory point, where anyone would think it profitable enough to do.It’s really dumb it hasn’t been stripped down to a solo game. Last time I played fleet was mostly empty anyway.
they've added this a while ago mostly. pretty much all 1 group "dungeon" content has solo modes. either with NPCs in your party, story mode versions where its soloable (you + companion) or a super powerful droid that basically solo's it for you while healing you. which version of that soloability depends on the era and expansion it was released in.They could do what FF14 is doing and modifying old MSQ dungeons so they can be run with NPCs. Although that would take some amount of work depending on the dungeon
