    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I'll be honest... watching Zaide's stream gave me a little more hope that there actually is a game there, but ... I'm not going to candy coat it... those graphics looked like crap. Lord of The Rings Online has better graphics than that game, and it was made in 2008. That tank character with...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    The one thing I can say about rogue is that you get the best gear with the least effort because nobody plays them. You want the best in slot weapon that drops for a rogue on week one of an expansion for minimum DKP? You got it buddy.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    You could always level as many clerics as possible on one account and then create a rogue on the same account to have 100% bonus exp :P That would make it way easier seeing as a cleric can get a group with their eyes shut, hands tied behind their back, and telling everyone to go fuck themselves...

    ^This. It's the standard, and if you play a monk in a raiding guild, you will be highly encouraged to do so as well.

    Oh is it not the same guild? I assumed it was the same "we roll deep" constant spamming guild as on the last few TLPs.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I'm not going to lie. I like the heirloom rule and some of the expansion unlock rules are interesting for the long haul. The experience gain thing is designed ass backwards. The way it should work is the following: Experience gains should be expansion locked... meaning you don't lose your...

    As much as I do NOT want to help the idiot who came up with this FTE idea out by playing on this new server, the reality is that my brother is going to drag me there kicking and screaming because he still has nostalgia with EQ. /sigh Someone just shoot me now and get it over with already. So...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Almost everyone goes to Unrest. It will have a lot of picks open for it. The experience is fast, but... and this is a huge butt, there are so many people there and the spawns are so few with long respawn timers that you end up fighting for spawns a lot. If you can get a fairly empty Unrest...

    Yeah I remember binding there in classic. The one in BB is not there, but you can bind in that location if you have a friend with you that can bind you.

    I'd play day one just to stream it, but honestly, I get more viewers on average from streaming Lotro than I ever got from streaming EQ. I say that because I don't think people actually realize just how small is the EverQuest community. It isn't going to take many back-to-back bad TLP years...

    That is fucking hilarious right there. Monk pulls mobs on to you, FDs, and the mobs attack you but you can't damage them. Gold status griefing incoming lol.

    It's not like anyone told them this was in fact the stupidest idea ever conceived in the history of stupid ideas conceived for EverQuest.... oh that's right. EVERYBODY TOLD THEM.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Reality is they are never going to stop making bad business decisions when it comes to their games. It is what it is... that simple. The best thing that could happen to EQ is everybody stop paying them for anything and let the game die already. Maybe a decade from now someone will buy the IP...

    Evil Dead Rise (2023)

    Brother and I went to see this last night at the movies. We both commented after words that it was good but not as about a 3 to 3.5. It definitely was not the same not having Bruce Cambell in it, but it was good enough to stand on its own if you don't knock it for not being centered around...

    Are there any decent web-based turn-based RPGs out there right now?

    I have it on my phone, and I play it from time to time when I get a second. The problem is that it still is "action" oriented in that you have to physically run the character from fight to fight. I'm looking for something that literally is click to move to next room, click to search, click to...

    Are there any decent web-based turn-based RPGs out there right now?

    I'm looking for a web-based game that I can play while working, so it can't be graphical and action-based. I'm looking for an old-school web-based turn-based game where you can take a turn, alt-tab to do some work, and then alt-tab back to take another turn once in a while. Is there anything...

    I enjoyed the stress test a lot. This game is the closest any game has ever gotten to making me feel like I am playing EverQuest on day one. Just so cool.

    Two monks working together could train a horde of mobs to both sides of a zone line that they know you are running to, and you will be dead before your screen refreshes and can start Selos.

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I just wanted to point out something along the lines of this thread. There is no perfect MMORPG for everyone. There's rarely even a MMORPG that is a 9 out of 10 for most people for more than a short while (after the new wares off). The thing is, we pick the MMO that we play based on how...

    Odyssey, A Blizzard Entertainment Project

    I really liked Valheim a lot. It was a great game with a lot of potential to me. I've always wondered why nobody has modded it to make the giants look like those in Attack On Titan because the mechanics of how it works with them attacking your settlement and all could easily be modded in to...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I used to be a big proponent of group-based content, but as I get older and have more responsibilities in life, I just don't see requiring group-based content to progress in a MMORPG as being sustainable game design. It only truly works for the youngest of players (or no lifers) that have no...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I think the issue with the MMO industry is that they're trying to make games that last a life time ... because that's what we want, but reality is that we shouldn't expect a game to last 25+ years. No game can be designed with a multi-decade life span baked in with out certain parts of that...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    It sounds stupid, but one of the best things a streamer can do is always stream as if hundreds of people are watching you EVEN IF NO ONE IS WATCHING YOU. If you only entertain when you see people watching you, it feels extremely fake. You want the viewer to feel like they came in to an...
