    Avengers: Endgame (2019)

    Time travel is the worst plot device ever. Cap bench paradox? Who cares, if Thanos abandoned 2014 to go forward a decade? Meanwhile I just couldn't shake how truly terrible, like basically evil, snapping people back but 5 whole years later would be. You get to come back to a world that would...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Selo is not the ideal market for farming krono. More hardcore players, far less hardcore spenders. There is a reason the rmters went for mangler - you would probably make more kr hustling hgs solo on a pet class than even aeing on selo.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    I disagree with it being a problem at all, though. Ae groups are fine. They require more setup and coordination and actual human attention to the game and as such are healthy social experiences. The people screaming bloody murder about getting trained are just being dumb, as these are pulls...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    No. Everquest is a cool game because it has cool gimmicks, and imbalanced items, and quirky pathing, and crazy exploits... One of the absolute last things we really need are blanket nerfs for game balance sake. Sure, your nerf will stop ae groups in their tracks. It also stops a multitude of...

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    P2W mechanics are more devastating the more persistent your game world is. Mmos are not hamstrung because "kids these days" nonsense. They are not built to capitalize in the current trending marketplace, and that's on the grown ass men. Even before cash shops many were crippled by RMT and paying...

    You don't need to cater to 30 minute play nor do you need to make it easy. Just have SOMETHING to do in that time.

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    A successful future MMO absolutely does not have to copy WoW, but it needs to still address the same issues that it did in some way even if differently. Being able to log in and be productive with under an hour window to play needs an answer, even if you don't take WoW's casual approach of easy...

    2 years later... the almost sad state of MMOs in the new era

    The key draws to playing an mmo are a social atmosphere and persistent world. This results in difficulty playing for short times or stepping away easily, and an ever growing barrier of entry for new or returning players. Wow addressed these with piles of easy wqs and instanced pugs + complete...

    Everquest AMA with Holly Windstalker

    A big concern I hear from a lot of people on tlps is veteran rewards, usually mentioned with the same "too much to be able to catch up" sentiment that prevents people from jumping into live. Would it be possible to put veteran rewards on the store? This would allow returning players on a new...

    Ms. Longdale, you run a fantastic company here. My wife and I play your game every day. I like the announcements you tweet, and the missus thinks your forum posts are quite humorous! I have a question for you however this is not just a praise post. My son is about your age, he will turn 19 in...

    Everquest AMA with Holly Windstalker

    Holly, Everquest and especially these TLP servers have become a haven for people with fairly noticeable mental issues and/or antisocial behavior, while other games seem intent on taking steps to either drive out the least socially adjusted or to desocialize interactions such that players can...

    Keep a record of who won gnome mask(s) and/or sceptre(s) of destruction. Inform the owners that it's nothing personal but if one ever goes up for sale they will be required to prove ownership and will be kicked and even reported to daybreak if they can't. Chances are the people who won them are...

    I liked loot council too, but once you introduce split raiding and have batphoned off hour snipes with skeleton crews I no longer want it. You simply need the stability of a point system. I will contend that even for this selo race which was the epitome of needing funneled loot and a council...

    I just want to apologize to you for being awarded ancient aego instead of you last night due higher raid attendance, causing you to rage quit when asked to stop bitching about it being awarded and not randomed. Reading this and your other posts it is clear that you are a very important person...

    It's on the rare list I'm pretty sure. The problem is that 2 times garbage is still mostly garbage. Very very glad I did that on a mage box early before the rush, apparently it's a ks clusterfuck now on top of rare.

    Ironically, while there ended up being some crazy shit out of game, I thought the in game race was both the closest and cleanest of any. My first experience with this shit was stromm and then various tlps, and it was never either so close or so few being dirty. Like we apparently had a hacker or...

    As far as dkp goes I liked blind bid a lot. Open bidding isn't ideal for me but I do respect that it dampens the underlying/secret collusion aspects by making the whole thing public - for example if the 2 rogues never upbid each other we all see it. I will give it its chance. I used to prefer...

    The race is over. No need to stay hostile. I grouped with a couple faceless last night, friends from past servers, and it was fun and pleasant - and both of us got shards. I'll watch the one dude stream his ff race in a week. Some of you guys need to detach and wind down. Let the hostility go...

    I've volunteered with autistic kids. I suspect a good portion of the tlp ballers are on the spectrum. Mabbu doesn't strike me as autistic, quite the opposite, he just seems spoiled and antisocial. Autists do shit like farm a shit camp for 14 hours and then wake up to do it again, mabbu...

    I had extremely similar complaints to Mabbu, basically every complaint he had I also had this past week. The difference is that I took my complaints to the officers, mostly Drillisen, in private. My complaint that the nonracer loot system sucked was met with an announcement of a noncemptetive...
