    Warhammer Online RIP

    I loved this game but when people were just objective hopping, there was no real incentive to play. People wouldn't even care to defend and would simply just go to another keep and take it. Have they addressed that portion of the game or is it simply just a restored version of WAR? I...

    Cats (2019)

    I never cared much for Cats on Broadway but it's still a pretty popular and widely recognized musical and I have no clue how at any point that they looked at this and thought they were doing something right. From the first preview I couldn't understand what they were thinking. Shame so many...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I think so but I think there was more than one little slights aimed at the film. Maybe not a Johnson personally but I had counted at least 5-6 as I went through the movie.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    You have to remember TFA was a handoff movie. The writers/directors agreed to one movie so they intentionally played it safe and left everything completely open for the next team to take it wherever it was intended to go. In my opinion that's an incredibly ignorant way to handle a franchise...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Just got back and really enjoyed it. I'll echo a lot of others and say that Star Wars fans are really going to enjoy this for the most part. What I found funny is that JJ/writers essentially did in the first 15 minutes what Rian Johnson couldn't do in an entire movie. So once you got that...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    In their defense, and maybe even my own, I don't think people want to walk away without some hope that Star Wars will go back in the right direction. It seems only natural after TLJ that after experiencing Galaxy's Edge, The Mandalorian, confirmation of Obi-wan series, the involvement of Kevin...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Your spoiler tag info is a good example to of what my friend and who he went with spoke about. I can't tell you how many moments he spoke about that referred to an EU books, video game, and other Star Wars materials. I don't know who knew all of this stuff but it sounds like a lot of deep...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'm speaking after him because I asked the same questions. For folks wanting some fan service from past Jedi's.. you got it. Snoke answers..... You got it (the answer was forced and not what we wanted thanks to Rian Johnson but you got one nevertheless) Several nods to the EU, video games...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'm going to see it in a few hours but a friend of mine went to a special showing yesterday and gave it pretty decent reviews. His words were essentially, if you are a big canon person who also played all the video games and kinda got into all the different stories over the years, you get a...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I always felt Poe was a good swap for the future. If Rey = Luke then you take Han/Leia and merge it into the Poe character (cool guy with leadership qualities and loyal). I've heard Oscar Isaac does a great job in the movie. Actually folks on both sides have seemingly voiced a lot of praise...

    On a brighter note, the Rise of the Resistance ride at Galaxy's Edge has received very high marks. lol

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    So I finally sat down and watched Charlie's (Emergency Awesome) Non-spoiler review and it makes me feel a little better. I've always felt he was honest even if I didn't fully agree with him. It appears that JJ "tried" to retcon a lot of things (even if it subtle) and make up for a lot of lost...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    While I wouldn't dare claim to be a writer or have any experience that allows me to critique their script but as a fan, I do not understand why this trilogy experienced any difficulty. In my opinion, JJ, who had only contractually agreed to one movie if I remember, did a fairly decent job...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I really can't believe how many positive reviews I'm seeing. Either the leaks are off or people are just glad it's over. What I've read, I'm not really thrilled about the story.

    New World

    New World was enjoyable, especially for a game in Alpha, and has a lot of potential. It has a ways to go though. It doesn't have a real good hook just yet and I'm not sure what would keep me playing for years or at least months. We'll see. For the sake of the genre, I hope we have several...

    Disney+ Streaming Service

    Love Robin Hood, Sword in the Stone, and others. Someone said Oliver and Company was not on Disney+? That is one of my all-time favorites as well. I haven't taken the time to look but I thought that was odd. I wish they would bring back the Song of the South. I only remember it through a...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Something that also concerns me is that there are reportedly numerous versions of this being screened which has brought people to believe that this is going to be a fragmented mess when they make their final cuts, splices, and piecing together for the final release. I had read that two...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Add Kevin Feige to this image and Star Wars might have a chance. I just really hate they somewhat tainted the original story. Honestly, they should have fan serviced the crap out of these three movies IF they were going to make them otherwise, it would have been safer to let these guys run...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Somewhat off topic but I've been seeing it pop up in different places but what are the changes they put something in regards to Brad in the game? I think it would be most cool if they have a human with green armor and two fiery swords offer a quest or something like that...

    RIP Brad McQuaid

    I think it would be more appropriate to donate to his family as well. If they want to make a contribution to further Brad's dream/passion then they can do so but ultimately, they have to live beyond video games and his unfortunate passing alone will cost them money. I say we make a donation on...

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

    Honestly, I've a always felt the game would release. My assumption is that it would take forever and would become irrelevant due to other games releasing ahead of it. Players committing to other games and not really giving Pantheon much of a chance would be its biggest issue. It also runs...

    RIP Brad McQuaid

    I'm down for a donation. As others have said, no matter how much crap we gave him over the years, I hope he understood it was because we loved the product and world he helped create so much. Everquest became more than a game or hobby for many of us. Everquest was always about people and...

    RIP Brad McQuaid

    Would be nice if we had something add all of our signatures [First Name] "Game Name" or something similar that could just be digitally printed on something nice his family may want to keep as a keepsake just so they have a token of good memories and appreciation from the community. If it was...

    Someone had shared this image of FoH and Aradune on the Everquest Facebook page. Thought I would drop it here for you folks that may have not seen it.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    TFA wasn't bad for the first installment in years and what was great about it is how opened ended it was for the next movie. Sure it was very, very safe in terms of writing but you had endless possibilities with Rey, Kylo, Snoke, and you had several directions to take the old characters. The...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    So are we being slowly introduced to old gods? Is N'zoth the only "corpse" of a god laying around? Sorry, my Wow lore is a little swiss cheese. Lore of N'Zoth, God of the Deep - Old Gods and the Black Empire

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I'm not surprised that they are pushing the scale of encounters given Sylvanas is releasing a supposed gigantic skeleton king looking shadow. I'm guessing Shadowlands is going to have some massive beasts so N'zoth is just the beginning. (Not saying that its a bad thing but an interesting...

    Archeage

    A few friends and I were considering playing Unchained once the LoL season ended but I've been reading lately that server pops are dwindling and gold farmers are becoming more and more prevalent. Also, bugs/exploits were a major issue as well. Got a MMO itch bad but nothing seems to be very...

    EverQuest - If you could design your perfect TLP server

    I'm a nostalgic fool so don't judge. I would like to see Agnarr but with seasons of some sort the revolve around lore and custom events. Zones could become raid zones with special gear/rewards (cosmetic) that would become collectible somewhat. You could have a season around Unrest, Sleepers...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    Second hand source told me that they really took a swing at a Lost Ark feel but isn't sure if they were able to execute or not. Hoping to find out more later but most stuff they were showing off and some of discussion around the room felt very Lost Ark and not so much Diablo. To my...

    Archeage

    With the LoL season about to end, we were kicking some games around to add to our mix as we wait for the next season. This game has come up 2-3 times now and the enhancements intrigue me a bit. However, I've heard a few P2W comments... any truth to that? Can a small group of 5-6 friends...

    Everquest II

    Yeah... agreed. I really over condensed my statement. I think EQII did a lot of stuff right, especially in terms of little details that made the game fun and memorable but yes, in typical fashion, they really wasted a lot of time, money, and resources doing it. When I mentioned the voice...

    Everquest II

    This is one of my favorite pieces to any game. I like when folks congregate places. It was a major part for EQ to me. I would see characters with new loot and such and it motivated me that much more. It was so fun to stop and talk to people and just hang out or travel together. This is...

    Everquest II

    Somewhere down the line someone though progress / character progression meant go to instance x,y,z and get currency A or B and by stuff. Literally that was EQ2 for years. I got sick of it really fast. EQ2 still has the best AH in my opinion in addition to the best housing. It's still the...

    Playable World - Upcoming Sandbox MMO (Raph Koster)

    Yes... I meant to have a mod fix the typo. Playable Worlds is the company and I noticed the Hartsman was touting them on social media the other day as well. So it doesn't sound like they are very deep into development. I was really sure how to post it but you are correct, Playable Worlds is...
