That would be disastrous... That's why I'm not a fan of FTP games... if the game has fees and you get one land-plot per game account then that make sense. Let's hope the free portion of the game doesn't include your ability to own a land but you can do everything else otherwise (I heard that...

I wonder if you're allowed to buy/undertake more than just one land plot?

You're such a dumb ass, my dear Cinge. I don't intend to "try" this game to scratch my MMORPG itch. Because it will never do. I am trying this game since I am an MMORPG observer & an enthusiast and unlike many people I try to base my opinion on personal experiences. How can I do that when I...

Servers are down or is it just me?

May God have mercy on your soul Dahkot!

There are certain key words that makes me shiver with disgust and one of them is "dynamic events" (as in rifts) when this gimmick was announced to be the selling point for "Rift" I knew I wasn't interested. Don't get me wrong; I am sure plenty of others would love this kind of Game Show...

You know how to fix the problems with MMORPGs? is to change the name of the genre. Not only you will not attract those millions of timmies that have no place in this genre to begin with. You will also eliminate any kind of comparison and anticipation. You will also have an easier time...

To be fair there are a whole lot of good games out there. XCOM Enemy Unknown/Enemy Within. Hundreds of indie games with really interesting concepts. From the last ~2 years: Skyrim, MineCraft, and others I can't remember. TCG: Hex, Hearthstone, SolForge But unfortunately there's...

Pretty spot on. The similarities are shockingly overwhelming. Pet class system is disgustingly WoW-like (the right click to "auto use ability" even the position of the icons and how the icons looked like even the NAMES of the abilities were like WoW; Bite? Claw? correct me if I'm wrong). The...

Can't tell if serious To be honest, after learning more about EQ LandMark, I find it quite amusing (not interested in EQ Next at all). But then again, I'm someone who enjoyed MineCraft.

What also bugs me is how enraged they will get when you try to actually explain why you enjoyed game X. Such a blasphemy!

I am sure a lot of lurkers and viewers of the thread found my questions very helpful thanks to Flight and Ukerric who kindly gave thorough answers. Unlike those useless posts (just like this one I'm posting now) which serve no purpose except for flooding the thread with redundant hate talk...

This Landmark this confuses me and I have a few questions... 1. Are the servers are going to be taken down when EQ Next is launched? Or is this a totally different game that will keep going on despite of what happens to EQ Next? 2. Is this a game or just "creative mode" building simulator...

Give me an example of itemization done right from any MMORPG you played. Mine would be EverQuest. Yours is? I'm not saying EQ was perfect but I'm just saying EQ was the best so far from what I've experienced. I simply don't want to play a game with itemization inspired from Diablo 1996 or...

EverQuest Itemization is top notch. There's no pattern you can predict, no algorithm. Also, loot only dropped by rare nameds/bosses and upgrading took awhile. Unlike games that took the Diablo route where you get bombarded with upgrades every hour which destroyed the whole feeling of finally...

Do you own a Windows 8? Do you use Windows 8? I was like you until I assmebled my new gaming desktop with Windows 8. I'm happy with it. I always ask people what they hate about it; I can't remember a single legitimate reason. The "game" looks promising; I like the idea. Reminds me of...

My life has been a series of MMORPG disappointments. I'm not crossing my fingers but this definitely will be the last project I will follow (along side with World of Darkness). If this and WoD failed to deliver; I will finally rest from this torment.

Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest that. Quest this, Quest...

Lol, I should try that. Wow.... You're such an angel. Thank you!

How come I didn't get an invitation when I signed up for Beta from the very beginning?

Sounds good to me as well A small scope focused on group content.

Complaining about telegraphs in a game like Wildstar is like complaining why the sewage system smells like shit.

Is this game still under NDA?

I agree with your post completely. and I wonder, and ask everyone this question, where else would you end up with such a situation as described above without adapting a combat like EverQuest? How? How combat worked there, to me, was extremely important because there was something addictive...

Medium is good. But to be honest; I don't mind fighting monsters for three minutes. To me that's a lot more exciting than killing a monster in 3 seconds. At least I'd get to feel I've been in a "fight" with a monster... not being in a "pop". They're beings not XP bubbles. I also want to...

I'm really intrigued on this Kickstarter's pledges. It's really tricky to make them exciting without giving away too much. Question: What's your top three questions you would ask Brad for his next video?

Is there a video/explanation on what you expect to get from EQ Land Mark? Is it just creative mode where you build things and... that's all? Do you need to gather resources (at least some game there) or is it just infinite resources for you to create whatever you want? SOE lost me at...

What part of EverQuest do you see in Disney Land characters wearing Sci-Fi armor (as per the founder packs rewards)? If I see a hint of EverQuest in their Land Mark deal I would have considered playing the free "thing". But I see nothing that speaks Norrath for me.

The "survival" post was just to brain storm; I wouldn't even want Brad to delve into something we haven't tried before. As for nostalgia. Of course there's nostalgia. But you can't argue that when I say "I want to play a first person MMORPG." as a nostalgic need. Just to name one thing...

We're just discussing things hypothetically. Stop taking everything too seriously.

Question: What do you guys think of Survival Mechanics (like hunger, temperature, thirst, tiredness...etc)? Each one has its own drawbacks if not maintained. We know EQ had hunger/thirst which affects your HP/Mana regeneration. What about Tiredness; Say your character needs to sleep in an...

You're absolutely right. I really doubt Brad can even top 2 mil with his kickstarter project; not without a genius PRing campaign. And I honestly think he needs not less than 10 millions to make a game like EQ/VG unless he's getting funds somewhere else and if does I would like to know...

Good point. Player on/off combat interaction. We need different layers of player-interaction and without that a sub-based model would be pointless. No one would play a disguised lobby-arcade-game. If there's Economy, Trade, Factions, Survival, Difficult Content, Slow Progress and no...

I see what you did there

Question (trying to steer the discussion to something more productive): Do you want McQuaid's project to be subscription based and why? If you answer yes; how much $$ per month/week or even hour do you think would be a fair price?

Let's try to be more constructive here and enough with all this retarded ad hominem and unnecessary personal crap. It's very clear we can group people in this thread into two groups; One which doesn't want a game like EverQuest and one that does. Can we all agree with this? We know...

Or make the game like every other MMORPG that's been released the last 8 years where your scenario suggested above will never happen..... wait, what? You know what's even worse? it's when they try and add a new "gimmick" to sell the game. No one asked for a 10 minutes down-time. We asked...

Over hyped? There's zero hype over this title. I've yet to see someone excited about TESO and I can't remember reading any kind of anticipation on other MMORPG websites or YouTube channel. I think this underwhelming feeling towards TESO is going to be its strongest point. Many people have...

Hahahaha. I doubt anyone thinks EVERY EverQuest mechanic was flawless. I agree with you; there are many things that needs to be refined and sometimes "tuned down". But I don't want to compromise "the over all experience" just like what happened with WoW and Vanguard. They just went too far...

That's a very good point right there. Complaining about down-time in an MMORPG catering to EQ play-style is like complaining about Turn-Based mechanic in a Civilization game. If you feel you want to turn Civilization into an RTS; then you're probably playing the wrong game genre... you should...
