    The Muffins programmer from EQ1 is the best programmer in the industry. Sling that spaghetti~

    The Zone Revamps in EQ1 convinced me that they needed to fire their entire art team like, a decade ago. How on earth do you make Freeport and the commonlands *uglier* with an update. That pale-yellow woven-straw-I-guess texture they overuse for every fucking building in new zones is hideous.

    Right, but there's a difference between knowing setting dressing (Pantheon names+roles) and THE DEEP LOREZ of which tranny Mayong Mistmoore buggered to obtain the Ruby of Rugose Rogering.

    I mean, honestly, what percentage of the EQ playerbase actually knew enough of the lore to necessitate a shake-up.

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

    FOHGuild forums had an entire subforum dedicated to it. Produced very little. Was a fun place to have little armchair design discussions without derailing an existing thread, though.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Nono, you see, Wildstar transcended the Casual/Hardcore split! There is no 99%/1%! Only the 100% and the 0%! Because even the 1% couldn't actually beat half their over-tuned raid content! Democratization of MMOs through denial of content!

    My playgroup is working hard to get Argent's dev to quit life by asking a constant stream of rules questions. "Can I replace a Temporary Mage (Student faction Spell) with a permanent Mage using the Archmage's Study?" is the current one we're waiting on an answer for. Really enjoyable game...

    How could Horizons fail, YOU COULD PLAY A DRAGON AS A PREORDER BONUS (Fuck the MMO industry) AND WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING REALLY DRAGONY Logging into that game for the first time and doing crafting tutorials... as a dragon... was mildly ridiculous.

    If you put all of the incompetents in one company, the Universe's natural tendency towards spitefulness would guarantee that company by sheer random fumbling in the dark produced The Best Game Ever.

    Got Argent in last week, was a pretty fun take on the worker-placement paradigm. Hidden victory point system's a bit fiddly, though. "Workers that punch other workers off of their spaces" sounded broken as hell in the lead-up, but were fine in the actual game.
