dont depress me with reality asshole.

Its absolutely people who pay money for shitty games fault. People who put 5-10 dollars into a shitty F2P game only creates more F2P/P2W bullshit.

I doubt it. Explain how AC was awesome. While having never played it, i can almost guarantee that it wasnt because of the story. No one looks back at it and was like man that story was so cool man, i play that game just for the story.

Players consuming content faster than it can be developed in the developers fault. People are now given easy content with shit tons of loot. The solution is not to just create more easy content with upgrades to all that loot you have received. I really liked the way TOV did loot. There was a...

Who the fuck cares about this complex story/quest shit. It does not improve games at all. Kill shit, get loot. That's it. It's not fucking complicated. Players do not need assistance making the world immerse, they do it themselves by being there.

So you want Wowclone#12093123801?

Rejecting new technology? Yeah, you are right, I am going to reject all new technology that puts more shitty story into a game. I will not reject new technology that attempts to create a gaming experience that creates an atmosphere where you will bond with your character, the world, and the...

So we basically need to wait for the MMO industry to "die" in order to have a good MMO?

Actually, by giving the game the name Everquest, we are going home again.

I did not imply that there needs to be a complete recreation of EQ1. Or were you stating that you don't think players need to have a connection to their character and the world to make an MMO long lasting?

Oh Theon...

Pretty tough is stating it lightly. When it all boils down to the bottom line, game companies are going to keep doing what works, and if they are happy producing the shittiest of MMO's and making max profit in a very short amount of time then they are going to keep doing it. It is not the MMO...

Who gives two flying fucks about story or storypricks or whatever? I remember nearly 100% of the quests I did in EQ. Why? Because there were so few. Turning in Orc Belts, Militia Helms, and Warrior Epic. Thats about it. The questing to level system was done by wow, and it'll never be fun in...

I am sure they have considered it. It's not worth it though.

As opposed to what? New MMO's are still wow clones. Quests hubs to solo to max level in a multi-player game. Surplus of gear at any given level making you not have any emotional connection to your gear or character. Although this game has that stuff, at least the end game is trying to be...

EQ Next will be revealed at SOE Live on August 2nd.https://www.everquestnext.com/. Nothing new happened in Vegas tmk. So yes, apparently someone was teasing your cock.

What does this have to do with anything? EQ's end game users were of a certain breed. Having those players want that type of game again is nothing abnormal. For any MMO to be around consistantly these days it needs to either cater to the niche, or develop something brand new. No more wow clones...

I still use old models in EQ. $$$$ EQ's original auction house was hoss. People had to be online and talk to each other in order to buy and sell things. Actual player/player interactions in an MMO? THIS IS MADNESS!!!!

"After raiding, the next system that Carson expounded on was the frontier system -- the unique combination of housing and PvP. In Dragon's Prophet, the two systems go hand in hand because PvP is enabled only up on the housing islands. Players can flag themselves open for PvP and fight other...

This is a fundamental problem in the MMO industry. Well not FOR the MMO industry itself, but for gamers who want to play a lasting MMO. F2P MMO's are developed for exactly this. for someone to spend 2-4 months playing, drop 50 bucks, then move on to the next F2P MMO. One of the reasons we will...

Leveling in Everquest was probably the most fun I have ever had in any game. It required you to group with other players, work together, and not be a socially remedial cunt. Being able to solo to max level in a MMO only makes the leveling process a chore. There is nothing fun about playing a...

I highly agree that instanced dungeons/raids took alot of what made EQ specialy to me out of the game. However what may be more detrimental to MMO's as a whole is ease of travel/exploration. In everquest, travelling was sometimes dangerous, something you had to put effort into. Flying mounts...
