    Some actual costs (albeit a year ago roughly, things have changed a bit probably) is in this update - Update 31: Stress Test Results — Monsters & Memories

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I'd start with Zukan, he's into the twerk. Sounds about right, seems like a nice increase on the M3. I just today got my USB-C mouse for my mac, have been stuck with trackpad until now, so haven't had any mac mouse experience. Some of the blank buttons/etc we've hit already, you just don't...

    There's a mez spell graphic. Yes on the mage pets and group buff. Melee don't have a spellbook - they have a skill window that uses the spellbook graphic on a different tab than we display each spellbook. They still use autoattack, but generally have more to do than in early EQ. Rogues are...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That's probably fairly accurate but only in a very general way. We don't have titles really, just sort of general "areas". That said, Shawn, Ali, and Nick are the owners of NWC and they make final decisions when needed/appropriate. If we had titles, Shawn might be labeled something like...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    So to run through all of the mac gaming options I'm aware of - Parallels - I don't have first hand experience, but one of our players said it was pretty slow to run the game, it's a VM setup I believe. Cost money. GPTK (Game Portability Tool Kit) - Apple put this together and put it out, it's...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I should probably have come armed with some examples, but in general I'd say - if you like modern MMO downtimes, you'll probably still think it's super slow. If you're pretty familiar with classic & early EQ rates down to hp/mana per tick across the levels, it's a bit faster in general. At...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Well, it's definitely going to be easier to play on Windows. We've had a few people play on Linux - no major issues supposedly (I haven't installed Nobara yet to mess with it myself). You can play on Mac with Crossover, albeit there's some emulation performance penalties for sure on my M1 Air...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    There was no crouch feature for the test. It actually got a first pass within the last few days, so should be present for the next test. For the ogre issue - we build zones and test with them for sizing. There's meant to be some areas large races can't get to, but most areas are just meant...

    Night Harbor is the largest city planned. Areas of many districts have areas marked off for player housing and merchants. Portions of the city are also meant to be available as adventuring areas - depending on your faction choices those areas may differ a bit. Think something similar to...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I ran across that video the other day - it's so glorious for all the wrong reasons.

    Minus nobody else having done it before he did it. This was before a ton of player power increases I might add.
