This entire genre is creaking under the weight of 25-year old game systems. All paths in an ARPG inevitably lead to the same destination, flying there on autopilot while everything on the screen is autogibbed and the fraction of loot that isn't garbage is autocollected.
Wake me when we land.
If you were actually familiar with the platform then you'd realize that you and your normal friends with the 10 viewers between you aren't representative of it and you're certainly not the reason it still exists. Instead, it's the degenerates being discussed in this thread who're really driving...
I don't know anything about any of these retarded streamers, but I'd just like to take a moment to say that "Stivitybobo" has got to be, hands down and without a doubt, the dumbest fucking name I've ever heard in my entire life.
And the uncanny valley of gameplay grows ever deeper. Can't wait to explore this exciting, hyper-immersive future as the same decades-old camera on a stick driven by a D-pad and some buttons.
Makes sense that a fur suit instructional vid would be popular among the Emirati when you consider their other degenerate pastimes like shitting on the chests of foreign hookers.
Kinda hard to feel sympathy for someone repeatedly choosing to place themselves into an environment which they already knew from past experience worsens their underlying problems.
Blizzard pretending to give a shit by cracking down is just a means to earn them more subs (additional accounts to circumvent caps) while putting on a show for all their disheartened little toadies.
That's about as cold-hearted, bottom-line as it gets.
For over 15 years now, retards have assumed that WoW can be dethroned simply by making a better version of it because they don't realize that, for better or worse, WoW is the apotheosis of the entire genre. This belief is tragically comic and akin to the mistaken notion that a system can be...
Nostalrius was 5 years ago. The last big pserver (LH Northdale) had higher concurrent and no queues even on launch. Other technical issues were at least transient instead of built-in a la leeway and spell batching.
Yeah, totally plausible that many people caught it months ago, as the most densely populated hubs in the country are only now having a problem with it.

It's more pity than hate, and if you were capable of feeling either then you wouldn't be so quick to excuse someone who celebrates living in self-imposed squalor.
Only if by "better" you mean higher poly count and texture resolution; by every other measure that actually matters they don't surpass EQ, let alone WoW.
In screenshots, Pantheon has that generic plastic quality typical of indie efforts trying to rival those of the big studios (even the latter...
EQEmu is useless for doing anything but running a private EQ server.
It'd take more time and effort to tear out all the EQ-specific functionality and retrofit it for your purposes than to just write an ad hoc server from scratch (or employ one of the many off-the-shelf networking solutions...
