Everquest is going to go down in history in terms of name much like your Quest for Glory, Kings Quest, etc. It's probably slightly more recognizable than those titles but it will suffer the same fate by having other titles just overshadow its name. It did it's job and it really is a shame the...

I'm not saying the game will be good or bad but I wish I had my $100 back. I'm just not seeing this game evolve into the game I had in my mind. For some reason the more I read and watch I see Rift. Not that Rift didn't have some good ideas and ton of potential in the beginning but they blew...

With Legion being pretty positively received, OW appearing to do well, and I bet, Blizz is looking at their next big thing or at least really devoting their best and brightest to moving it further along, I would say it was just a good time. He probably didn't want to go through another major...

Maybe the newly formed Bonfire Games will purchase it.

It could be anything... they're going have a bit until they film again and it's not like they won't have access to the greatest make up artists in the world that can make him look like whatever they want... he could be making room for a new face piece/mask due to an injury he faces in VIII... I...

Thanks... may jump in on my lunch break and at least do that much.

Grad class last night, work today, and then son's football practice (sigh... RL) but anyway, what do I need to do when I log int this evening to get started. I hate losing all this time but can't be helped. Glad to see such positive feedback thus far from several different sites. MMO's (and...

1. StepBrothers 2. Monty Python and the Holy Grail 3. Robin Hood Men in Tights 4. Walk Hard 5. American Pie Honorable Mentions: A Mighty Wind, Spaceballs, Van Wilder I think Christmas Vacation and Elf are hilarious but they're "Christmas movies" to me but they are definitely very funny movies.

The video just reminds me of moments where people would just hang around and talk. Random moments either waiting for raids to get together or when your name came up on a list, in the mean time you just would hang around. I would travel between Qeynos and FP time to time and run into all kinds...

A lot of truth here.... I haven't experienced any danger in a MMO for years. There are a number of moments I was scared to death in EQ. I was thinking about losing my corpse, experience, and curious if I was even putting other people's time and energy on the line. Being a cleric my entire...

It is easily one of my favorite MMO's as well and had some really solid couple of years that many people missed. I believe it is almost my most disappointing MMO simply because they made such great strides and fell on their face pretty harshly and quickly. I'm probably inappropriately direct...

Actually very little with the exception that sometimes less is more and also, don't be afraid of an idea.... you never know when you'll accidentally create a game that nearly 20 years later they'll be message boards filled with jaded old people reminiscing of the good ol' days of your game...

Speaking of NPC grudges.... Dorn. That turd.

EQ simply existed in a world where there was no standard or expectation not to mention was being played by a niche crowd primarily that had played single-player RPG's, table tops, and a host of other games that took work and patience. We were just happy to be in one place, a virtual world, with...

Sad no MMO will ever have these conversations tied to it. I'm not sure where it all went wrong but it was nice to have a smaller pool of items, quests, and mobs. Everything was more notable, memorable, and sought after. Instead now, everything is so generalized and I couldn't tell you a...

You don't know how many times I have tried to get this started but i'm really just a "design" kind of guy but i'm pretty weak in the programming aspect. All the programming I know is extremely dated and I simply don't use it anymore except when I teach Unity classes (I do very basic C#...

It use to be so much fun to speculate and theorize various items, mobs, locations, etc. I would look at the EQ map all the time back in the day and wonder when they were going to add one zone or the next. Rathe was always really confusing to me. They had some really oddly named mobs and...

Great! See you guys online!

I'm hoping to get online this coming week. Still in Rerolled so will send someone a message. Looking forward to the expansion actually and getting back into gaming a bit. Work has been absolutely crazy and hating these 12-14 hour work days.

The writers and directors have discussed their frustrations and seem to know Thor is a weaker movie within the MCU. They say the problem, at least in the beginning, is trying to keep Thor's world toned down as they are trying to slowly move the audience into this world where people are gods...

I just think it's awkward that MMORPG.com would even want this unless it was just deal that involved minimal risk financially for them and simply left them with nothing but to gain some people to generate a little more traffic and/or ad revenue. If they're smart they'll attempt to weave the...

Netmas comes early!

This is really a spot on assessment and I echo just about all of this... so proceed with this spec with caution. I use UI stuff and very little macro but even with my method you're stuck with a few macros that make life so much better. I think I found a few of them online on a forum where...

Played out my trial week they gave me and still couldn't decide on a Priest spec. Will resub sometime next week after work slows down. What time I could play I just couldn't determine what would be the most fun as I do like to PvP but still dungeon crawl as well. If the guild needs a...

Is everyone still on Hyjal? or is there a particular server where all the fun is happening? They did implement some of the cross-realm stuff though if I remember correctly? The server me and friends were on (Drenden) is essentially dead and 50:1 Horde I believe someone last said.

Very helpful... thanks! However, still baffles me that have made Paladins such strong healers. It may be the EQ and old MMO player in me but I think that undercuts your priest classes a bit but no biggie. I'll probably stick with my Priest and go between specs based on where everything settles.

I've heard they are still running a lot of the numbers and balancing is still to come but how is the healing working out? I'm more of the pure healer type but do more groups than raids honestly. I think I may actually pick this up after all.

I think the biggest thing was people was wanting the hotbars addressed in addition to thinking a little bit more out of the box due to the repetitive formula of building X currency by running dungeon A, B, and C 1000 times to buy armor and weapons. Essentially ponytail kept ignoring and/or made...

Have they ever discussed their stance on housing and guild halls? From what I have seen/heard garrisons are not a fan favorite and i'm surprised they haven't done something that's appears to be a more popular choice among MMO's. There are several people that I know that play some MMO's...

Ponytail has always been slightly delusional in regards to his own work. I can't think of one thing he has spearhead that has work especially long term. He can claim to be a gamer for gamers or whatever but he's not. He's constantly working a gimmick. EQEmote, LM, whatever. It's always this...

Ok... Is this expansion worth it? The last couple i've bought simply to experience the opening day rushes for old times sake. However, I don't know if I have it in me to drop the money to quit after a few weeks. I think i'm simply getting old and honestly, I already invested in Crowfall which...

Looks like a good place for a Lure.... this has definitely taken over our town. It's nothing to see groups of people around our parks and Post Offices. Can't believe just how many people are playing this in our area. People that don't play video games at all are doing it while they walk I...

That's me... even if it is the biggest part of the end. They need to have a 20+ minute battle where Vader absolutely annihilates everything. They do that and this thing will make a ton of money.

Agreed but that's what so frustrating about Nintendo. It's not like they can't fix this... I just can't tell if they're in denial or just don't care. There are moments I think they believe they can roll out a Smash Bro., Zelda, or Pokemon and make all the money they need to stay afloat...

For those wanting a summary of the speculation, rumors, and/or Kaplan's previous discussions here is a decent video. Just hate the guy who narrates the Force Gaming videos. For some reason his voice makes me want to punch him but you get some nice images from the PTR.

PS2 just had a library that just didn't stop and everyone was hooked. They really handled their console well. People bought in and they just didn't stop rolling out the games. SNES is probably my favorite console but it's got a lot of nostalgia tied to it. My favorite console games were on...

Want to chime in on a couple of things.. Destiny 2, I want something similar to what was "originally" shown E3 many moons ago for Destiny. I want 3 factions all fighting over Public Quests, materials, etc. I think they should have 3 towers or 2 at least, making the world as competitive due...

Honestly, it's probably the most used system in my house. (Have XBONE and kids 5 and 8). While there are some games my kids like on XBONE, i'm typically on the PC and then we play WiiU as a family and when friends come over. Nintendo has more selling power than just about anyone. If they...

So.... Norman Reedus looking to Kickstart Ghost Rider... Thoughts? What's your best Ghost Rider crossover or tie in? Anything you'd like to see that could possibly fit in the current cinematic universe? http://www.avclub.com/article/norman...-reboot-237930

I don't think the Mouse would allow it to get this far out of shape. I do think it's possible they may run into some continuity issues and maybe they're having people in the know of the lore as being promoted by Disney to ensure everything flows. They're jumping all over the timeline over the...
