Heh, shit, forgot about the whole 'you must run all over the world to buy your spells' part of being a caster in eq. The run across Kithikor and High Pass Hold at level 8 should be entertaining. I guess I should be thankful that I have illusions and invis as a chanter -- options that I never...

I thought about a druid, but they were so common 'back in my day' (fuck I am old) that I don't know if I can do it. I played a monk and a cleric back when I played and loved them both, but monk was pretty gear intensive (and far too popular... ) and cleric is a sack of suck if you ever need to...

Just started a DE chanter on 99. Have not played EQ since PoP days and I gotta admit, it hooked me right back in almost immediately -- god I missed this game. Really have no idea why it is so hard for developers to replicate this feel. Forgot how slow leveling untwinked is though, wow. Must...

^ This. This is perfect. I loved what I saw in his live demo, and was Brad not... well Brad, I would have backed the project based on what I saw, no questions asked, no further evidence needed. But due to his sordid history of popping up, promising greatness, then promptly shitting the bed...

Yep, and the fail 5x in a row takes a ton of luck, given even with every person unlocked you still need to mix in some 50+ interest level people. The other options are fine, but the 5x fail, I know my run is over soon as it pops up.

The fact that neither the CEO nor the CTO (wtf!?) has any experience in game development is going to make it so no one takes them seriously regardless of how good or bad their concept work is.

Not at all. Trust me, I am in no way saying that EQ was bereft of problems... it was a shit show much (a lot...) of the time. The thing that sticks with me and from the sounds of it, a number of other people here, is that despite these problems they took some chances and as a result got a lot...

Not to criticize, but if you didn't play EQ, you really can't understand the attachment to the game nor the desire to recreate the sense of wonder that came with it. Wow Vanilla has a bit of the stickiness and feel, but nothing since has really come close to sense of discovery. I have played...

Depends if you plan on trading. I keep a very long conduit of nodes and cities linked together because I do a lot of trading and you need your beginning location and end connected. If not, it is probably worth just ripping up roots unless you have a lot of leveled workers in Velia (Workers...

Glad to see they did not make keeping agro trivial. Wow and clones have all been so tank and spank that there was no punishment at all for poor coordination or dps fuckery. I am loving this so far.

^^ this

Watching them actually play the game rather than a fancy demo that everyone will shit on as staged? Yeah.. I think it does

Gotta say.. I am liking the group interaction so far.

Seems like the usual cast of mouth breathing idiots has shown up in force to chat on the twitch chat. My brain hurts just thinking about how horrible a game this is going to turn into if they listen to the community they currently have watching.

I keybind everything to number pad or are tied to the various wheels and buttons of my Cyborg MMO 7 mouse, so odds are mine would be irrelevant for you unfortunately.

Really enjoying this game. More than anything in a long long time. The combat is engaging, the UI, while confusing at first, is brilliant once you figure it out, and all the 'other' non-combat systems are amazingly enjoyable. I am sad to hear the game does not have much of an endgame because...

Sent you one in a PM Astaire

Oh, I expect launch day to be a shit show.. which is why I bought a pre-order to get in before the crowd, but apparently my pre-order bought 2 days before the headstart did not include the headstart.. even though the package said it did. Hence the immense amount of rustling

Lol, briefly got a 'Unexpected Error' message and now the maintenance is extended another hour. This appears to be going swimmingly. After buying my pre-order after their pre-order period so not getting my head start and now this, getting a lot of sand in my vagina even before I start playing.

Been playing a fair bit the last few days, and I have to say, I am loving it. It is a bit too much AC and a bit too little EQ, but it is still definitely the most enjoyable MMO experience I have had in a long long time. So nice to actually feel like exploring matters and to not be on shitty...

I am almost scared to admit that this really sounds awesome. Hopium is a hell of a drug, but I really want to drink from the McQuaid koolaid.

This. Though I found a dual red/ diamond deck using the creatures from white and the direct damage / removal spells from red more stable than a single color of either.

You find? Can't say I have had any issues with it other than the occasional server crash which is to be expected in beta. Collector tier has definitely proven to be excellent value for money, the alternate art cards are big money on the AH. Hex Promos...

Actually, I didn't use a 'burn' deck and cleared every fight in the game (though I did use a custom deck for Myth 6 and big momma worm). That said, it takes a pretty good collection including a lot of legendary cards -- it likely would not be viable to have a slower tempo of game with a starter...

Heat wave, if you have it, makes the fight much more manageable. Myth 6 and the momma worm are the ones take a custom deck and a lot of luck to beat in my experience.

I like it already. Early choice question and answer driven character stat development reminiscent of the old Ultima series. It reminds me of a Steampunk version of D:OS -- Excellent story and soundtrack mixed with small group tactical RPG combat mechanics. Still very early on so that opinion...

Bumping this as Beta starts next week (18th) and early access the week after (26th). Not a lot of gameplay has been shown on this one yet, but we should get to see a lot more in the coming week as the kickstarter backers get our hands on it. Here is some of the music track though which has...

Right, because saying, 'People are still spending money so it must be going great!' is much more intelligent. What it actually means is they have done a great job hyping the shit out of this game (and they have), and good news, no game hyped to hell has ever been a disappointment, right...

So we should conclude that since people spend money on gym memberships, but 67% of them go totally unused, those people are totally are satisfied with how they look? People drop literally billions and billions of dollars every year on shit they don't need.. hell even shit they don't want...

It's a lot more than that though, how many hours are they going to burn trying to balance their FPS experience, how many hours are they going to burn developing the boarding party experience, or capture mechanics for ships/cargo, or guns (loot) for the first person shooter experience? All of...

I am a big supporter of this game, but I gotta say, i am with Quaid on this one. I get that there is going to be a lot of additional 'features' that they are going to include due to their massively expanded budget, but all this first person shooter shit is just getting ridiculous. It would be...

My laptop was out for repair so I loaded it up on my old PC with a 480 GTX and it runs smooth as silk so I doubt it is an issue with being spec related. When you say 'crashing', what is it doing? Locking up? Kicking to desktop? I noticed that if I alt-tab out of the game it shits the bed...

Hmm must try this. Good find if that is the case!

Survivor. It's rough but certainly not unreasonable. Not sure if the mobs themselves are harder than very hard on this level, but the ultra slow health regen definitely makes death by attrition a real risk. That said I have not met any of the truly ugly shit like Deathclaws yet so it may get...

Ditto. Seems solid so far (went 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 8, 9), though still early days. Game overall seems great, if a bit buggy. Really hate that they have key remapping restrictions though, I use number pad for all fps style games instead of wsad so being locked out of remapping those makes me rage.

At this point, I truly hope balancing pay pay to win is their biggest issue. Seems like every week, we get some new piece of news about more features they are planning on adding with very little progress seen on those already promised. My prediction is even more grim, I bet that we end up with...

Tried adding you, but steam does not appear to like your ID... that or I don't know how to add friends in steam, either is possible. Try adding me, steam id is same as this id 'Raign'. Still downloading (of course), but over 50% now!

Lol, ditto here. Currently 1% and crawling.

Gonna necro this thread since early access starts in two days and it looks friggin fantastic: https://swordcoast.com/

This. Both are great. Wasteland, the story was a bit more engaging, PoE, the combat and classes are better. PoE is the harder of the two. Both took about the same amount of time for me to beat. Both are great and worth the money.
