I wonder when the beta will be on going? Constant stress tests are a bit lame.

Can't wait until they get past the stress test phases.

Its nice to see that the game is actually in the works now, rather than being a concept thing. But it's probably going to take a good 3 or so years before it's ready, unfortunately. All my hopes are still in Wildstar at the moment.

Whelp, I think I'm going to place all of my hopes and dreams into Wildstar until we know more about this game. It definitely doesn't seem far along enough to know anything really concrete.

So I've heard on GAF that dungeons are procedurally generated? I don't know how I feel about this. Also, have they decided to use instancing or not yet?

I'm still curious as to if a high tier and low tier player can play together. Nothing more annoying is deciding to play a game with friends, but you can't because he out levels you or falls behind you. That shit is aggravating.

I have a feeling that a trinity will emerge anyway.

Yeah, I'm not to worried. I like most of what they've shown, so there's that. The weapon system sounds like the Tales of series for some reason. And sort of jacked the system from the Sword Art Online (MMO anime) too.

I guess this is the best example we can realistically come up with. In the end, it's all going to depend on how good the AI is.

There really should be a hardcore server, where the enemies have more HP, hit a lot harder, and there are old penalties like losing your corpse at death, etc. It would probably go a long way to please everyone.

When is the next stress test, by the way?

To be fair, it's more like they've threatened to go in dry at this point. Hopefully they see the backlash and don't. I don't see why they don't just jack Wildstar's combat. I mean, the non-trinity thing could work if the AI is really good (storybricks), but I don't think I trust SOE to get...

Same here. Also, gear apparently will give you abilities, which is cool as well. As for them ditching the trinity, I do not know how I feel about that.

Aaaand that may have killed it for me.

If anything, even if it doesn't live up to the hype. At least it's different. Fucking tired of WoW clones.

I wonder if Halas can be destroyed after it's built? Or moved, perhaps? So many questions.

Just read about storybricks. Holy shit, why has this not been used that I know of yet?

To be honest, this happens to single player games as well. Doesn't mean that these games aren't good. Hell, Bioshock Infinite was missing a lot of stuff shown at E3, yet it was still a great game. Not saying EQ Next will be everything people are hyping, I seriously doubt it. But it could...

They did a good job with PS2. If not, there's always Wildstar.

Anyone else feel like the name should be changed? I think it would confuse people that might find the game interesting. Something like Norrath Online or something would probably better suit it. I also wonder if high tier players can help out low tier players? I wonder if they can group...

Well, considering the game's assets should mostly be done (they've scrapped this game like 3 times, apparently). It's putting together the continent, dungeons, combat, tradeskills, etc, that will take the most time. But still, having most of the assets done should take a lot off of dev time...

The humans look fine, and I would be willing to bet that the other races do too. But that Kerran face is retarded.

When is the class presentation happening?

Someone should ask if sir names are in again. First and last names are something I miss in MMOs. I wonder what else they're going to bring back from classic EQ? Hopefully more than just a few familiar areas, items, and names. I'd like to see some old spells come back as well. I'd be down...

What if a high tier player opens up a hole into a t3 area, but I try to walk in? I can understand not being able to break t3 ground/terrain/objects as a t2 player, but if I'm blocked off artificially, that would be dumb.

But doesn't the gear have effects, rather than stats? Like haste and what not, rather than direct + 10 INT, etc. I might still want to make a Dwarf, just to have a Dwarf, and give him some gear to beef him up.

This has me a little concerned then. Will higher tier stuff be blocked off from lower tier players? That shit was annoying in EQII when it first came out. "You must be level 30 to enter the Thundering Stepps." That shit pissed me off. Would piss me off if it's in this game as well. Also, I...

Don't know how I feel about these two things. I think the best stuff should be BOE or BOP, but some stuff shouldn't be to allow twinking and stuff. I also don't quite understand this tier thing.

I still think Path of Exile's cash shop is the best cash shop. All effect items, except for storage. You can buy more storage, which is fine.

Well, I can see how it could be used. Imagine going into a multi-level dungeon where you have to avoid using floor slamming abilities, because you might cave your level in and fall into a massive amount of monsters. Think Sebilis, but instead of traps, you have weak floors which can be broken if...

Yeah, EQ's lore got kind of WTF after a while. But I guess it's the nature of MMOs. Even WoW's lore degenerated a lot. I hope they keep the locations and some of the lore in tact, though. From what I heard during the conference, Ogres aren't stupid in this one since the curse hasn't happened...

I wonder if there are ore nodes, or do you just dig until you get to the layer of stuff you want? Like, maybe digging on top layer will get you fertile mud, but digging deeper gets you clay, and even deeper might get you something else. If it's just nodes you run up to and mine, that would be...

Should we be glad that Iksar hasn't happened yet? Lol

I wonder when this game will actually ship? Early next year maybe?

Agreed, the face needs a more realistic lion face. Then I think it'd work. Also WHY THE FUCK DO MY DARK ELVES HAVE HORNS?

I will say that Landmark looks pretty fucking insane, though.

I'm pretty impressed, EXCEPT for the combat and the character models. Seriously SOE, what is with you guys and character models? If they're going to go the sort of cartoony route, they should take a few pointers from Bioshock Infinite. Also, that Kerren model needs a revamping, badly...

This is neat and all but I want to see the game god damn it.

I would shit a brick if this was free to play.
