Give me Trolls or I ain’t playin’

One day we are all going to realize that we are each individually a Tyenbot and have been the whole time.

Blood Mage Disciple Vanguard Bard All three should have been implemented or at least attempted before Archer

You’re thinking of MnM 2

Agree wholly on Wizzy/Ele/Ench/Nec rolling into three classes. Same with Ranger/Bst/Archer/Spellblade should probably be 2-3 classes instead. Personally disagree on Dru/Shaman just because I think only have two healers would be lame unless your plan would include a new healer.

I think if you wanted to spin up new classes IMO it would make way more sense to spin off an OP class like Enchanter, maybe make a class that does charming/crowd control and another that does buffs/debuffs.

Archer really should not have been spun off from Ranger. It’s actually impressive that they took arguably one of the shittiest classes from Classic EQ, and spun off two separate classes (Archer and Spellblade) that probably could have just been incorporated into Ranger to make Ranger not suck.

I'm not a Radiologist but I know a few. When I've asked their opinion, open MRIs produce garbage image quality and should not exist.

Another year, another chance to catch @Foggy on TV while watching Texas lose

I hear they all play in 3rd person too

The best part is the look on that dude's face just before the chaos, he is truly enjoying a fantastic bite and then BOOM

Can we rename the thread to this

Hmm, been wondering whatever happened to Johnny49

I am the dude that said first person was important to the game’s “magic” and I absolutely despise 4 hour boat rides buddybear.

I heard there was entire Coheed album about how Sylas played in 3rd person and they had to redesign the game around his uber strats

This forum does tend to fall into the grumpy old doomer demographic I don’t see any reason to deny it lol

This could turn it around for StoryBricks!

Well bro it was fun while it lasted. On the bright side at least we got the legendary announcement for fan favorite closer Chas McCormick out “Chas working on 4 days of rest!”

Look you may have very well played that way but I do honestly think you would have been a small minority. There’s no way to really prove that to you I guess but for evidence I would point out that we only really have one “modern” server that uses an old client with the janky f9 camera and that...

Just give ‘em Das Boot

That sounds like the worst house party in the history of house parties

Mouse scroll in EQ wasn’t a thing until well after PoP, you guys just don’t remember it because p99 uses a newer client. Ironically it was a feature first brought to you by… WoW

The F9 camera switches were not the default for exploring areas because they were kinda shitty. I definitely used them in super open areas to kite though

Third person is definitely lame and misses a lot of what made EQ great.

If only we can have a game that brings back the spirit of such smash hits as p99 EverQuest, Vanguard and Shadowbane in 2025 targeted at a group of 40-50 year olds without wives or kids then surely a critical mass of players will be achieved lining up to pay $15/mo

Agreed. It’s pretty funny actually that 80% of “hardcore EQ players” that try TAKP immediately quit because it uses an older client that’s too classic and won’t let them scroll out with the mouse lol @Nirgon where you at on this, third person is pretty unimmersive IMO

I’m just not as brave as you sir Lancelot

You are wrong, this might be what YOU want, but I too would like an old school game, and that is not what I mean at all. I’d just like a game with more static dungeons, first person gameplay, grouping and killing mobs.

Wanting a game designed such that one can only “thrive” in it while living off on SSI/Disability welfare while complaining about communism lol

I think there is SOME (limited) merit to what you're saying, but I don't think you can just easily recreate the magic in 2025. Back in 1999 most EQ players' homes had a single computer with dial-up internet and it wasn't powerful enough to alt tab out, very very few had a second monitor etc...

Class interdependence, group based gameplay and mob killing. Absolutely don’t miss (and don’t have time for) 4-6+ hour grinding sessions, sorry bruh

Have you ever built a house before? You should budget +20-30% for miscellaneous BS from the builder once you’re underway

$200 per sq ft seems awfully optimistic man you can’t even buy old construction for that much in my area and I’m not in some fancy HCOL city

Technically correct but they would still run trials. 1) You would never run a trial of replacing something with Vitamin C. You would run a trial of whether <insert special vitamin C compound that they can patent> PLUS standard treatment vs standard treatment. 2) Even if you did think they...

I feel like this analogy is coming close to jumping the shark for the Nirgon character lol

I’m not sure that math works but maybe I’m wrong. Sure the lowbie friends get a chance to catch up when the highbie hits a hell level but won’t the highbie just gain as much distance on them when they finish their own hell level?
