I have to say I love the way SOE is handling things so far: -refunds for Founder's Packs -Open about what's going on with the Alpha patching -Dropping the NDA Is this the real life or is it just fantasy? Has there really been a serious paradigm shift in how they are engaging with their...

This was Fansy-levels of awesome back in the day.Anyone have a link to that story? And although its been lost upthread, I have to say the keeping some high-level events close to cities/hubs is a fantastic idea. Anything that keeps the various levels intermingling is a good idea. Spectres and...

I didn't hear/read/see the P99 interview yet but grats and thanks to Rogean for stepping up. The travel/teleport stuff posted above sounds interesting in concept, although judgement reserved on what it would look like implemented. I certainly get a sense VR isn't just stuck in the old school...

I like this as well; mostly these days I look at MMOs as a set time experience. I enjoy leveling a few characters to max (in most cases) and then I am on to something else. Even games I really enjoy, like TSW and GW2, once I am at max level, there is only so much that I want to do. If I can...

Ut has said good things about an MMO; I know after playing some TSW after launch he wrote good things about it. He definitely does have some folks in the industry he doesn't like, for seemingly good reasons, and he will hate on them early and often. Some of those folks are making ESO. That...

You can say a lot of this whole effort but you can't say that Brad hasn't been giving this his all. No matter how this comes out, its something to build on.

well, in that case, everyone, rejoice! My brother dicktrickle has forgiven me!

I am a converted fan as well. After the EQ Live/announcement event I was cold on him, but watching him repeatedly over time talk about the game, he has certainly grown on me. He gave one "interview" to a guy in a parking lot that I saw and was really gracious and charitable in possibly not the...

I went for it. I really wanted to wait based upon the poor word of mouth but since I can't seem to get into any kind of beta to save my life, along with the fact that I had a bunch of GMG dollars saved up, I decided to go ahead and take a chance on it. Worst case, it wouldn't be the first...

Indeed. <brofist> This is always a huge thing for me. Bolt-ons or Add-ons are a great way to allow people to self-customize and generate bump up donation totals at the same time. Thanks very much, VR folks, indeed for bringing them online.

While I would love to hear the answer to this, it may be better to phrase it more like, "looking back, what would you like to change and improve upon in vanilla EQ and some of those first expansions". I wouldn't want Brad to comment directly on P99 asked in that fashion. I fired up P99 for...

I am sorry I didn't post that 100 pages ago when the thread went toxic. Not really targeting you specifically as much as the generalized negatively in the thread and the spate of snarky posts. I do feel better now, though, and isn't that what's important here, really? If it makes you feel...

After reading this shit for 150+ pages, come the fuck on. Do you and BoozeTrickle play paper/rock/penis best of 7 to see who is going shit-post next? For fuck's sake man, develop a gag reflex and STFU after a couple of troll posts at least if you can't really help yourself.

They just send you a survey and ask you for which items you did you donate the extra money. It's pretty simple actually; I have seen it in at least 7-8 KS I have backed.

No doubt. The current config of the tiers, the swag, the PR campaign, the effort from all involved, a better launch video, no all brown-SLASH screenies... combine that with the theme of "we are just setting up shop but this is what we have in mind", this could have been an entirely different...

3; with the exception of the last 15 minutes, its one of my favorite games of all time. The ending really sinks my battleship, though, even with the "improved" endings. This, really.

Please tell us more about banking, obviously an area of expertise for you.

They had demo footage of the dog-fighting module, I think, as well. They have definitely built as they went along but the difference is that people trust Chris, and what we see as requests for more information really are people asking for confirmation it's going to be EQ 2.0 and not Vanguard...

I would tell you to go DIAF but then I think about all of the good things fire has done for civilization and stop short, for fire's sake. Your occasional good post makes me think that you at least mean well, even if you can't sustain it. Both Pathfinder Online and Camelot Unleashed got about...

I have thought this needed clarifying for a while. Its just for them to get this off the ground. It's seed money. Almost everyone treats KS as a pre-order, and in some cases its true; here it's something more foundational.

There is a difference between criticism of the KS or of design decisions and the pure leftover vitriol crowd who aren't happy if Brad has internet access. One is helpful and productive and the other is just venting and emotional self-stroking. With the thread moving 10+ extended pages a day...

Let me say this: I have always thought Denaut had valuable insight and provided value as a poster, even if I think he is way off-base now. I am directly calling out Boozecube: Stop trolling; you may not think you are, but you are. Your last post is a good start in a better direction, though.

This is what's going on here with Pantheon @Rerolled: Guess what we are coming out of now? Expect this to repeat again as we get close to the end. And since its Friday night and we are all being bros, a somewhat tongue-in-cheek FU to all of you super-negative bandwagoneers who went from...

Nothing wrong with discussion but this isn't the FSR discussion thread. Picture applicable:

I imagine that discussion went like this: CEO:

You can like the broad strokes of a narrative without knowing how fine the hair is on Nexus' goddess ass. I am not a huge fan of it as it is but that doesn't mean that constructing it this way isn't part of the overall theme for what they want to do in the game.

I got an email invitation to something on 1/31. Fake Edit: with a link to RSVP and also a Twitch livestream. Real Edit:

It's boners all the way down. For anyone who is a Jeremy Soule fan who hasn't found it yet,DirectSonghas much of his music available for purchase, although some of the recent stuff, like Skyrim and GW2 only have the physical versions available. Itz may be a Blizzard whore and completely...

I haven't been able to be as active in this thread as I would have liked but to go as negative as this thread has is really counter-productive. Is the KS not great? I was one of the first people criticizing it, so its not like anyone disagrees on that. Troy also makes great point on the way...

IRS treats it as income and it is taxed at a rate commiserate with the normal tax rate of the entity receiving the money, IIRC.

Jeremy Soule's theme gives my chill bumps boners of their own; it's like I am anticipating the nostalgia for the music I will feel in 10+ years. Just an amazing job on that.

I think you make great points and to further it, every dollar over the 800k mark is only going to be of slight marginal value. What they need more than anything else at this point is numbers of backers, such that they can convince a publisher (including SOE) that this is going to be a big...

There was a huge push as they were nowhere close to making it. That is how I remember it; They were going to fail and put forth a frenzy of "now or never, the ship is sinking all hands on deck" communiques, at least in the places I read.

I think it is a great compromise; in a perfect world as you added skill/levels/achievements, it will allow you to pinpoint your location more precisely.

Again, I agree his "heart is in the right place" in that he is looking for different ways for the roles to be fulfilled. He literally says: There is already a role for that. Now talking about healers having CC abilities, why not? Again with the CC abilities; obviously this guys isn't going to...

I agree with this but realize that the collective "we" have been giving this same advice here in detail since the day the KS launched.
