    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Heh. Personally, I'm willing to donate upwards of $60 once the game is released and I've read reviews. That's how I always make my "donations."

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    It was more than two I think. Legacy of Steel was pretty much the Blizzard dev's EQ guild. I played on The Nameless back then, and I'm pretty sure I remember it was Rob Pardo playing Ariel, the Guild leader of LoS, and I remember at least one other, Laminae maybe? posting original artwork...

    EQ Never

    The entire problem is trying to "make" the next big thing. That's not how it works. You cannot just make something a phenomenon, and when you try it always comes across as disingenuous and forced. Things blow up, and the "me too" companies try desperately to recapture that "lightning in a...

    That was pretty fucking good. "Ladies and gentlemen, please forgive all the hootin' and hollerin', those are the sounds I make when I'm getting screwed."

    EQ Never

    I just now came here to post this link. Pretty obvious EQN was never being properly developed, Landmark money went to pay for H1Z1 most likely, with Landmark player's creations being used in videos to further the deception. Fucking hell.

    "Have you heard the good news brother? He is risen!" Strangely similar.

    EQ Never

    I'm glad to see someone else mention the art style. Many people seem to be unable to separate polygon count and texture meshes from the underlying art style. Quality means more than technical improvements, it also means the actual art itself is well done, that there's an overall theme, and it...

    It's criminal that we didn't get this music. What the actual fuck man, every track is god damn amazing.

    Fucking hell every single track so far on the playlist is incredible. To me this is like finding a lost Mozart piece, I love Jay's work so much. And this is amazing. Amazing game music in the original EQ style by the man himself! Everyone here needs to at least listen to track 6: Echo...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I totally agree with that, and as I said, I know it's early and I've been a gamer and computer geek for 40 years so I understand the development process. We've all seen pre-vis and true alpha footage. I just want to make sure they understand that the artstyleis really important. I'm not...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I understand that the gameplay shown was super early, so it's hard to get a real sense of the final look, but there is a clear lack of art direction. They need a really great artist, who isn't also doing this, that, and the other job in the company. Just an artist. A great one. The current...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Well, this entire thread only exists because we were all interested and supportive at first. The attitude only went to shit when the project turned to shit. If it's good, and actually exists, then yeah, that's all anyone ever wanted. No one wants shitty games, or worse to be ripped off by the...

    I'd just like to take a moment and acknowledge how masterfully Elidroth trolled everyone here during the entire DBG debacle. From, "It's only a name change!" right through 150 people being fired, and on to "Oh I quit DBG months ago, but everything there is fine!" Bravo sir, bravo.

    question about vanilla Eq's night sounds

    Thank FUCK someone else heard this. I heard the same damn thing, and it was EQ's night sounds exactly. I'm an old audiophile and musician, and I did a lot of recording, mixing, etc. I have an ear for these things, and it was the same sound loop exactly. Fucking thank you, I haven't been able...
