    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Great class, lore, etc. I haven't played WoW much, but I tried again when they announced the DK. Was seriously disappointed it wasn't more like a SK, but I enjoyed it all the same. The graphics are my main hangup with WoW, so I bailed after a few months.

    So you like being lied to. Congratulations! You have completed your transition to womanhood. Leave your dick at the door, you won't be needing it. Yeah, I got that wrong. My bad.

    Yeah those were fun times. The gms put a stop to that nonsense pretty quickly though. I still played for years after that and had a great time without fucking up someone else's day.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Shawn also mentioned in the recent podcast possibly removing FD from Shadowknights. Why the fuck are they even calling it a shadowknight? It's a lie they are using to fool people to give them money. It's deceit. The class they are creating isn't a Shadowknight. It's a bait and switch so they can...

    Yeah, he's one of those morons that assumes that people played SK to be some sort of edgelord. Fucking retard. Shadowknight and Enchanter were great classes that no other game ever tried to recreate in any meaningful way. Mainly because the devs were cowards and idiots that couldn't figure it...

    Watched a bit of Shawn's podcast regarding class changes. He says to shadowknights "just play a necromancer". Shawn is a moron. This game is toast. Enjoy your modern audience garbage. I won't be there.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    You can say that about any class. But people forget that many of the "bad" design decisions for sk were intentional. They wanted the class to be rare back then. I didn't mind the group xp penalty which was considered the main "bad" design decision. It didn't slow me down that much and I would...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    WoW was never my cup of tea. Played a few times over the years but never more than a couple of months. I think it's a very well made game and it deserves it's success. But it just wasn't for me, mostly because of the graphics. Bad SK's were "meh" during classic. But a good sk was very valuable...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Lot of people who never understood the SK, and never saw a good SK player work their magic, are speaking out of their asses here. Take the win and accept your new generic game the way you like it. But don't for once think that you have any clue what you are talking about.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    That's fine. They can make any game they want. But the bait and switch doesn't work for me. I liked the idea of playing an old school SK in new areas. Playing an emu is boring. Been there and did everything in those zones already. Why the fuck would I want to go back. That's for retards...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    The only reason I had any interest in this game was to play an old school SK. I''ll try the new changes during the next free play session but I'm very doubtful that I will have any interest in the class. There is nothing else about this game that I think is worth the price so probably will be...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    And there was nothing else like it at the time. Captive audience. Now there are tons of mmos to choose from. The only real question is if there are enough players in 2026 who want that throwback EQ game and are willing to support it.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    If they get the gameplay loop done correctly then people will get hooked. EverCrack was a real thing there for a while. But most new mmos never quite figure out the right recipe for that. It seems like over 90 percent of new mmos fall flat. Probably why they don't make them anymore.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Original EQ models had good animations which made most of them preferable to the later model updates which had horrible animations. If M&M can improve the animations of their low poly characters that will go a long way towards improving the game. I'm not much of a WoW fan but their low poly...

    Many of the people that use those hacks probably feel they have to because "everyone else is doing it". It's the go to excuse for the type of person who rationalizes their bad behavior. Of course, some people just hack because that's what they do. Unfortunately, many games are so hacked that it...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    A lot of energy for a mode that over 95 percent of the people playing this game will never try. I like pvp, but not in a game that isn't specifically designed for it. Having said that, I also don't like instancing. Yes, that means some people may be upset when they lose a mob.

    Bah, just saw that the Troll race may not be available in EA. Bummer. Was counting on being a Troll SK. Played a goblin SK over the weekend. That was kind of fun. Guess I'm going to be green and mean now.

    So played over the weekend, mostly a SK. But did try some of the new classes (not long). Probably will play this when it releases. Playing a shadowknight in a new world, was fun. And they definitely have that old school EQ vibe figured out. But what may end up killing my long term play is the...

    Highlander

    I really enjoyed the first Highlander film, iconic. The rest made no sense to me. Couldn't stand the show except for the Joan Jett episodes. Hercules and Xena weren't really my thing. But the few shows I saw came from the right place and were watchable. They certainly aged better than most of...

    Saw them with Guns and Roses I don't remember how fucking far back. Was a good show, but Axl pulled his usual bullshit and forced us all to wait two hours after Metallic did their bit. Didn't sell my youngest for the tickets though.

    Yeah, Netflix getting it would have been a disaster on so many fronts. But the amount of debt Warner Bros and HBO will have to absorb is going to crush them for years. Hope it all works out but the golden age of good content might be behind us with all of these mergers turning every creative...

    It's pretty hard to beat Cali's level of regressive stupidity. I live here and still can't believe how out of touch most of the voters are. But we're also pretty good at exporting that stupidity, especially up the west coast through Oregon, Washington and all though British Columbia. Should...

    First thing I learned to do when playing EQ was training the zone at Blackburrow on my lvl 6 rogue while running for my life. First time I did that I zoned back in and there were corpses everywhere. I laughed and kept doing it until a GM told me that wasn't cool. I thought it was part of the...

    Westworld

    Kind of agree. But think it's mainly what happens to most streaming series in the last ten years or so. They just milk the concept for too long and it gets boring. Even House, which was one of my favorite shows, stuck around too long for me and I never watched the last couple of seasons. As...

    Ashes of Creation

    WoW was a new type of game for most people who had never played EQ, or MuDs, etc. But WoW is way old now and the vast majority of players don't care about the old stuff. Even most of WoW's playerbase moved on to newer games and game types a long time ago. If they wanted more of the same then...

    False equivalence. And if you know anything about the Raiders and their fans, we are never fair weather. Although, I will admit to being very tested when they hired that idiot coach from the Patriots and then gave fuckwit Brady part of the team.
