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

    did none of you guys read their newsletter?? omg guys they're only redesigning the entire game from the ground up yet again for the 9th time, obviously it's going to take longer to develop than some AAA studio.

    So a guild mate made me some imbued tin pieces. Like chest and a shield, cant carry too much wt yet at lvl 11, but oh man what a difference ac makes in this game. Going from like 50ac with random dropped pieces to 225 ac changes combat so much. Went from only soloing 1^ to comfortably soloing...

    first and last time i dropped money on a kickstarter game. it was sold as something awesome and became minecraft without any of the charm and even jankier combat.

    So halt (class defining marshall skill) is literally just an aoe root spell? We get no other cc abilities, and since there is no graphic for party members to see that mobs are rooted, it only works as cc if i am the only tank (so i can back up and drag the kill target away) or if i pull or...

    marshall is almost 9 now, finished all the quests in starter zone (I think? idk) and moved on the northern one. game is a janky ass eq clone and i love it.

    well marshall is now 4, and i learned that if an npc guard gets a single hit on a creature that you dont get xp or a corpse. took me 5 min to find a bear for a quest, get him down to 2% and a guard runs up and steals my kill

    Yeah that's what i'm going for. I was leaning towards Brigand since I assumed Marshalls low popularity meant they weren't good. I have a brigand only lvl 3 and am making a Marshall, question though are they able to solo (with this latest change)?

    Was finally able to pick up this game and some jogger stole my name? I saw him running around last night too. If you see a Sylas thats not me. Tell him to suck a dick. Trying to decide on a class atm, marshall or brigand?

    Crowfall was going to but it failed. Was supposed to be eve + shadowbane but ended up being minecraft + shadowbane. Its sad cus the whole battle royale concept was theirs but by the time they released their game shooters had already stolen the idea and subverted it.

    WandaVision

    Eh to each his own but the point of the show was addressing it. Like inception, it leaves the viewer asking, was it all a dream? The movie never asks it, it never addresses it, but it leads the viewer to ask. And it ends with the spinning top, leaving it ambiguous. Legion begins in a mental...

    WandaVision

    See that is kind of the point. David is a mutant with multiple personalities and each personality has a different mutant power. Were any of the different characters real? Did any of it happen? Was he in a psych ward the entire time imagining it all? Did he just create a personality that...

    WandaVision

    Legion is the best comic book show ever but its a mind fuck. Its Noah hawley, same guy who did fargo (tv series), so if you like his style you like the show. Also if you like xmen mutant stuff youll like the show, even though the connection to the xmen universe is ultra subtle.

    There is this misconception that there are PVErs and there are PVPrs, like they are two separate groups of people with no overlap, and if you only do X you can convince one to enjoy the other or vice versa. A few weirdo outliers aside, players enjoy both. Players are both. Its the context...

    Im not saying for certain thats what happened but you are dense as fuck if you cant see how easily it can be done. Much easier and cheaper than stealing an election for example. Lets say CM did 150mil in domestic box office, which matches the enthusiasm /engagement/ etc for that flop of a...

    Yep thats the rub. PVErs want their PVE to make them better in PVP. all pvp games except for 1 have went this route and every single one of them failed. Talking about wasting 10 year dev cycle on games that last a month tops, this is the way to get there. See above comment. People will...

    Your talking about level 60 and pop, so like 3-4 expansions in. Rangers werent soloing shit in vanilla eq. I could be mistaken but im pretty sure there were huge level gaps where there were no animals to kill for exp. Surefall glades, karanas, then like nothing. In early eq the solo classes...

    I agree its a stupid discussion not sure why ossoi decided it was a hill he wanted to die on. Deadpool and his antics are as much in the mcu as she hulk. If she is canon then disney plus is canon and the entire universe is just a series of movies and shows written by soy faggots, blue hair...

    i'd be willing to say half and half. If you are talking could solo kill a blue mob (which granted exp), under a certain set of circumstances. Actual, productive soloing? fuck no, like 4 out of what 12? Even when they added light blue, some classes could not solo them.

    Don't want to single you out and break down your thought process but this is why these games fail. You say you want them to build a PVE game and add meaningless PVP on top of it, but include open world pvp...but normalized so gear is irrelevant.

    Black adam is by far a superior movie to thor 4 or strange 2. Id bet its superior to eternals but i never saw it. It was miles better than cm or bp, but both of those films are vying for worst films in the mcu. It was better than shazam and i liked shazam. Id put it on par with aquaman...

    You're talking about the guy who almost missed his audition for superman cus he was raiding in world of warcraft. I'm sure the time spent in the makeup chair for the witcher is a point of pride for him. I'd bet its the bluehairs shit talking his baby while doing his makeup that bothers him.

    Not only are the core design principles of pve games and pvp games are fundamentally different, but if you put the player bases on a venn diagram of who wants both systems in a game, there is virtually no overlap. The core tenet of pvp games is equality, skill based performance. This is your...

    others have mentioned Eve Online already, but i'd like to point out that Eve Online had more subs (550k) than EQ1 (450k) at their peaks, and held more subs for much, much longer than EQ1 did, and that game has been around since 2003. So a dedicated PVP fanbase exists just not for a game that is...
