    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    I find it funny that you are calling someone a nerd on a gaming forum. I mean... hello. Oh, and you might have missed the memo, but nerd hasn't been a negative thing since like the 80s. Welcome to 2019.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Playing the free demo for Eve many years ago for all of about 15 minutes mining an asteroid was enough to make me not even think twice about saying HELL NO to the idea of Star Citizen in the first place. I have no idea what you people see as fun in these spaceship games.

    I'm not going to argue whether some people prefer twitch game play in a MMORPG or not. All I know is that I don't prefer twitch game play in MMORPGs. And, that's based on playing twitch based MMORPGs off and on for the past decade. They are fun for a while, but then I end up longing for the...

    I like the idea of the WoW Classic servers, and I will definitely give it a shot to get some old school WoW nostalgia out of my system. The only problem I find with the idea of TLP/Classic servers in EverQuest and now World of Warcraft is that I feel that the companies fail to capitalize on...

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

    I hate the internet because they always cut the videos off right before the part you want to see every time. You know that fat kid destroyed his face, but did we get to see... NOPE! Fuck you internet.

    Hey straight up, anyone that puts 40 straight hours in to any game in order to be the first to do something deserves a congratulations. That is nothing I will ever willingly do myself because life. I do find it ridiculous though that some people think that just because Faceless competes on...

    I couldn't disagree more with you on this if I tried, and here's the reason why... I still play the God damned game 20 years after it came out. Just like all of you, I've played damn near every tripple A MMORPG that has come out of the past two decades, and THE ONLY ONE that keeps bringing me...

    To add to that, I really wish Questing as we know it would go the way of the dodo bird. Just throw out questing all together. If you want to have quests, have it ingrained in to the game itself as things you do that naturally lead to a conclusion with out having to click on any text, say...

    The MMORPGs that came after EverQuest for the most part killed exploration. It all became theme parks where you went from point A to point B, and then you went from point B to point C. Rinse and repeat. Gotta chase that questing carrot.

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    Selos is unlikely to match any patterns of previous TLP servers. It's going to be it's own enigma, and it will be interesting to watch.

    New World

    You must not have been in the Vanguard alpha then. My whole guild quit before the game came out, and left me with 15 accounts. I lost one due to telling the CFO of Sigil Games that he was a fucking idiot on their forums. He banned me. I had 14 more accounts to use. Fuck him.

    What you both talk about is 100% able to be done with EverQuest today with a designer that is willing to put the time and effort in to making it happen. This is one of the things I have been tinkering with on my private EQemu server actually. Every time a mob spawns or dies, you can fire off...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    I don't play on Selos anymore, but if anybody wants to put together an AoE group for farming plat every so often, I'd be more than willing to log my 60 Wizard in and join. I'd be more than happy to spend a couple nights a week or so farming plat on Selos in order to buy Krono for my real...

    This is where you and I differ. I don't like to crawl through dungeons. I prefer to find a spot and camp it with a group. The dungeon crawl to me always felt like a game-on-rails where you start at point A and go to point B. Lost Dungeons of Norrath added in some point C and D paths, but...

    MTG: Arena

    I think my favorite part of a new set coming out is that I get to destroy people with my same old deck from the last set while people are trying to figure out how to use the new set's cards lol. I'm like yeah you should so try out the new cards... BAM! SUCKER!

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I have zero interest in seeing any of the remaining episodes of this series now. The whole thing was supposed to be about the winter coming to wreck all humanity, and it basically boiled down to 1 battle in 1 episode. And... that's it. We're supposed to give a damn about the bitch in...

    Everquest - Selos Server - 20th Anniversary Casual Server

    That's the part that annoys me is that game companies tend to nerf anything enjoyable in order to stop a handful of bad individuals from exploiting it. It's been a repeating pattern for the past two decades. Issue: Farmers monopolizing all loot camps keeping the other 95% of players from...

    Faceless - Recruiting for Selo Server

    All the jabbing aside between Faceless and Amtrak, I have to say that I really liked Faceless from the short time I was there on Selo. I left because my static group decided they weren't hardcore enough to keep up the raiding schedule, and left to join less hardcore guilds. Seeing as I had...

    I just want PS5 to be released on Switch already. I love the game on my PS4, but I really prefer playing games on my Switch because I can take them with me.

    Path of Exile

    That's pretty much how I play PoE on the PS4... I just run around mindlessly spamming the same button over and over. It's relaxing after a stressful day at work to just slump back in the computer chair at home and kill thousands of monsters. I'm probably missing all of the things that make...

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    Ok cool. I'm taking a super casual stance this time around on the Mangler server. I only play my shaman in experience groups typically on the weekends. Raiding on Phinigel, Agnarr, Coirnav, and then the first couple weeks of Selos burned me out pretty hardcore. I'm trying to regain...

    Everquest Mangler Server - DOING IT ALL AGAIN, AGAIN!

    I'm in no big hurry to get my shaman to max level on Mangler, but I do want to get that mask for him. Correct me if I am wrong, but I was under the impression that the pre-nerfed dark elf mask continues to drop on TLP servers until X number of weeks after the Ruins of Kunark expansion is...

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

    From what I have seen in the later pages of this thread are a ton of hilarious fallen animated gifs. Don't get me wrong. I love them lol. I'm just wonder if anybody that is in the pre-pre-pre-whatever-alpha has actual information on what is wrong.

    I haven't kept up with the development of Pantheon over the years that closely. Is it really as bad as people are making it out to be? God knows I wish I hadn't spent money on this thing so many years ago now /sigh ... but I at least hope something worth playing comes out of it... eventually...

    I'd play FFXIV except for one thing... I'm not in to the asian themed fantasy realm of games. I prefer the DnD western style fantasy realm kind of games. Give me FFXIV with a western theme based on good old Dungeons and Dragons, and I might play it.
