    Aradune Returns to EQ aka the EQ Nostalgia thread

    Man that's classic. I did love the night cycles in that game, seeing the trees at night with the weird light sourcing (around 2:28) brought back memories.

    The Secret World

    Are you running in DX11? This game actually runs smooth for me, using my 2 GTX580s about 60% each give or take, for 60fps outside up to 110s inside. One thing I did a while back was fix my processor speed, most MMOS are processor heavy. I got lazy and instead of building my PC I bought...

    The Secret World

    I'm enjoying the single player experience. I did que up for the first dungeon (Solomon I think?), got in a group and had no clue how to get there, and noone responded lol. But I love the atmosphere, and the quests are intriguing. I love the creepy kids tree house in the middle of a dark...

    Re... really?! That's like Asheron's Call 2 level incompetence there, what with the chat and all. + nets for you for helping me save money avoiding this. I feel bad for a co-worker, he buys every MMO and ended up buying this at full price x2 (for his wife too lol).

    Guild Wars 2

    For loot, it still sucks. In fact, I can't name one piece of loot during my trip to 80. It was all sanitized, database friendly, formula-obeying mediocre loot. There's *some* WvW progression now in the form of a sanitized Realm Rank like system, but it's really just like +.00000001%...

    I would love to see a return of the Magician class. I love me controllable pets, and summoning useful shit. I still remember the patch they added Summon: endure breath stone or whatever. It was simple, but I was happy as a clam soloing Kedge Keep. I thought the fish were giving a bit too...

    Which type of girlfriend would you prefer?

    When I was much much younger (and not married), I would literally date only on breast size. So to me the options were: A) Flat but pretty B) Huge naturals, maybe butterface. See? It's not too bad. You can't go wrong with big 'uns. Oh.. oh god my eyes. I'm starting to...

    Is this going to be like RIFT, where there's hundreds of job combinations, but if you don't pick this exact job/side job then you suck as DPS and should die?

    The Last of Us

    Purely by accident, I managed to turn subtitles on. I never found it in options, but I think I hit square during a cutscene. I need them in video games, because there's *always* an NPC that starts talking at 1000 meters away, and even with headphones I can't make out that shit.

    The Last of Us

    I'm probably near the end and been playing well over 12. Of course, I take my sweet ass time and explore pretty much every nook and cranny. The unique environments make me enjoy scavenging way more than the 'open 1 million boxes' crap of Borderlands 2. Of course, I say I'm probably near the...

    The Last of Us

    I was just talking about this at work today. Normally in these types of games, I'd see a place and think 'I wonder what's in that room', and running through a run down hotel, you can get in almost all the rooms, each different than the last. A few have cool side stories / speech scripts, and...

    The Last of Us

    Found my problem. I'm playing this like the rest of Naughty Dog's games (ie Uncharted). When I'm spotted I try to slug it out, instead of outrunning them and hiding, resetting the stealth encounter :P http://kotaku.com/tips-for-playing-t...f-us-513462640

    I'll keep an eye out for the bow then lol. Man why am I so terrible at stealth games. I'm coordinated enough for FPSs and decent MMO pvp but it must be my lack of patience killing the stealth game

    The Last of Us

    I just started, and just now facing 3-5 zombie thingies at once. I am god awful at stealth games, and completely lack the patience for it as well; this game seems to demand it. Is the whole game going to be like this? Don't get me wrong, the locals are gorgeous, I just hate the gameplay so far.

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I don't know, I wasn't remotely interested in anything GW2 offered in the cash shop. The only F2P game I've put money in is PS2. Only like 30$ though, but it's bought me months of entertainment.

    Are... are those people standing in line for a story quest?

Unless that's part of the design: theme parks...

    There were some sweet locales in that. Impressive. I've not touched this game the first go around (or this beta). But getting somewhat interested despite mmo burnout Apologies if it was answered earlier, but will PS3 people be playing with the PC Master Race?

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    Holy hell I forgot about this. Was anyone here in the FOH guild after the expansion hit? I remember fighting twin giants for like 20 minutes, then right after they're at 5% there was some shitty mechanic that didn't always work, and would wipe us. 10,20 times a night. Blargh. Yea they could...

    Yeah they definitely upped the grindage by about 9000%. In retrospect I feel stupid for paying a monthly fee to do daily 'work' (aka daily quests) just for a +5 to this stat enchant or whatever. Some things I did have fun with right after the expansion was released: * Making money...

    Less investment in the characters, community, and on top of that we're all getting older and in turn too old to be AE CC'd for 1 minute 17 seconds from an instant AE ability(or whatever it was at DAOC launch). I'm all about options for group vs zerg tactics, but not at the expense of losing...

    AHA got one! Here he is ladies and gentlemen. The typical stealther. He demands that it be rock paper scissors and admits as such. He wants that 100% chance to win, fuck a fair fight. My memory's a little hazy on DAOC, didn't they also get a 'get out of jail ability'? I know WoW/WAR...

    Yea, I always hated the nerf to fun items with no real gain aside from cosmetic. Like the EQ Dark Elf mask, or a WoW item that turned you into a random race.

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    As someone who hit the expansion long and hard, I agree with the above posts. It was a bit neat at first, but I just couldn't believe how *grindy* they made it. Just a few case in points: They took faction grinds to a new level. Daily quests would normally give say 250 or 500 a turn in...
