Well if you don't get some there is always burning wood to look forward to, they are not that rare there if you can clear the fort reliably. I must have vendored 20 of the things leveling my necro.

The last time I checked their forums Wollay had a no official mod support stance. That said there is a mod section on the forum filled with cosmetic stuff that people have created so who knows, maybe he will change his mind, I can't find any concrete statements either way. All that I know...

Given the fact that this is barely a two person dev team who are also against modding I have no hope for this game actually releasing any content in for foreseeable future. The only hope is that modders find a way to release gameplay content besides the cosmetic bs that I have seen floating...

Was there a poll or something that I missed about segregating all EQ related threads here or what? EQ should stay in MMO General, who cares if there are multiple threads it's not like there are many other games worth talking about in there that they are detracting from in any way at all.

Ending it all in the third book would be a bit abrupt, hopefully the story will catch up to his present and then continue.

You know what I mean and given how simple (yet fun) the gameplay is the lack of map variety really hurt the replay value after awhile. Especially the glorified corridor maps like the flooded street.

I wish they would take the opportunity to add in more features from the original game like multiple bases or at least skyrangers/teams, larger urban levels and enemy invasions into the base. It appears that they won't though and the only thing that is really nice (for me anyway) is more maps...

Well it's an ending and I can respect the author for not wanting to drag it out but it wouldn't have hurt him to add in a bit more story and less of Jorg doing whatever he felt like without undesired consequences. That said this is obviously what it sells itself on: a dark protagonist doing...

Thanks for this one Zaide, funny stuff.

Did you try EQ Atlas? The old maps are out there and its pretty easy with all of the paths and other landmarks. If you can't cast invis or can't afford pots then run through loio, preferably after begging a sow in FoB. I can still remember how much I hated the run from Cab to Dreadlands...

Nope I didn't and I bet there's an interesting story behind how this got on TV but the show isn't for me, to each his own.

I tried to watch the first episode and just could not get through it, didn't find it funny at all. Has it improved any or is it still incoherent? I got the impression that it was intended for an intoxicated audience or strange children.

It's never a good sign when every character on a show is more or less equally unlikable and/or uninteresting; the only guy I'm moderately curious about is the PTSD copper thief. Come on AMC you started out with such promise, who cares about a mystery involving the death of some guy we will...

Book two was a bit excessive in the I'm awesome department, especially Dances with Adem. But we have some bad/humbling events on the horizon that have already been alluded to + the state of the narrator. Hopefully when the story catches up to the present Kvothe won't get conveniently "fixed"...

I agree and feel that the main things that make this book worth reading are Shen and Kaladims chapters. The other PoVs help with the world building and the set up for future books but they are not entirely relevant to any major events in book 1. The more ominous events to come are covered by...

I have seen episodes 1-8 and so far as period royal soap operas go it is alright; mainly because the tumultuous events it details are a bit interesting (if nothing new). It has the power plays and shifts in fortune that make this kind of story enjoyable however, its main fault is that all that...

From what I saw of it the combat in TESO felt like Skyrim without shouts to me which is a bit meh considering the combat was the least interesting part of that game. The world, quests, epic moments and dicking around with shouts were all fantastic. I did not like the mob pack system very much...

In the end it doesn't really matter what they have implemented at the moment. What does matter (to me anyway) is how they decided to present the game and which of their limited available features they decided to highlight. Things like double jump, auto pilot parkour, OMFG BBQ particles...

I always called it Qey-nos, no k. Kunark was Ku-nark also. Couldn't watch that vid for more than a couple minutes before the narrators voice coupled with super serious interviewees drove me away lol.

Seriously, I rolled my eyes when I first read that scene and was quite baffled after reading some posts by people who seemed genuinely confused of his fate on various book forums. The only thing that I found confusing was if you are going to stage a coup why in the bloodly hell would you do it...

Both. There were Jedi and Kings but they have both been absent until... they came back. What is your most terrifying dream that you can recall?

Okay I really like this one: Illogical Maze Creation http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/I..._Maze_Creation The user can create mazes that defy logic and bend space-time in a way that doesn't make any sense, such as making door A and door B both lead to door C and door C only lead to door...

Make your permanent campsite close to a Beefalo pasture but not directly in it or they will kill you come mating season (fun night time surprise that was). Also make sure you camp adjacent to 3-4 bunny holes and plant those traps at the edge of each hole for a steady meat supply (that way you...

http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Hope_Constructs The power to create constructs out of the emotional energy of hope. Sub-power of Hope Manipulation. Apparently the magic meteorite turned me into Barack Obama.

The last I recall the people he answers to were happy with him and their system because despite all of their fails in the gameplay department SOE is turning a profit and has been for a long time. They actually manage to make enough money from their MMO life support suite and now PS2 to keep...

What I meant was that they could have made much more of an effort to give the existing world a feeling of life and change from time to time. The addition of new quests, npcs, mechanics and the discovery of new dungeons & other content periodically would have been very interesting if done well...

Thanks for this Fedor. I found this quote particularly apt: "SOE games are not developed to be fun, creative, or rewarding experiences for the player. They are made to drain as much money from them as possible." I realized this for myself after many years of EQ play and much time wondering why...

Sol Ro here also, I joined Destiny about two weeks before they disbanded but never moved to Paradigm or BoR but I do remember a few of your names. Also definitely remember the time zone wars.

I always thought that it would be wonderful if players could take over level design once SOE proved that they weren't up to it. I can't think of one truly memorable dungeon past Velious that isn't pretty much just a series of nearly identical & bland corridors/rooms. Obviously the playerbase...

If you guys really want to have fun and get fast exp then build a charm group; mage, enc, druid would do nicely in most situations, could even roll with 2 chanters if you feel adventurous. Charm killing is some of the most fun I ever had in EQ, did lguk farming and 50-60 charming on my necro on...

At least we will always have the books.

Exactly and thousands of people still play this game both on the official servers and on emulators because it has gameplay and mechanics that a decent number of people find enjoyable and even superior to those of modern MMO's. EQ was never mainstream but that doesn't mean that it wasn't a good...

I haven't played in awhile either but what was true on live is still the same here afaik. KC isn't the best exp but its probably the easiest place to get pugs in for a couple more levels then move on to Sebilis. If you have some people to play with though go to the Hole, Chardok or Charasis...

I just started playing this yesterday and so far it is fairly fun, well written and definitely gives off that Oregon Trail vibe. Good stuff.

A fresh P99 server would be a lot of fun, it's a shame that they still guard their db/code so jealously even after so many years.

Maybe they are going through the Greenlight process still, who knows. Anyway the game is losing its charm for me after a good many hours played now, the +gooder item / level grind is really showing through and the lack of advanced skills beyond -0.01 to a skill timer is a bit of a bummer. I...

Yes bosses can be a pain, especially wizard and ranger versions because its super hard to dodge their attacks. Think I've had a fight take around 25 min to complete non stop before, I ended up just pulling him to a rock to wall tank it and run from his spells while healing. Levels and gear do...

QFT - I found an island with a castle full of +4 orcs and a boss, every spawn I get a couple yellows and many purple/blue items... it's pretty neat. I just wish that long swords weren't so damn rare.

I hope that they add an incentive to attacking red enemies, +10-15 exp for killing a skull bull at level 5 was a bit lame. I really wish they would support modding, it would just make the game explode with content.

Once you get past the frustration of not knowing wtf to do and wiki some things it is fairly fun in a grindy way. Playing as a rogue pissed me the heck off (especially fighting bosses) until I figured out how to spec to ninja. It took me awhile to figure out that the class trainers can't...
