Why do you insist on creating straw-man arguments when discussing the viability of an authentic recreation of EQ? Consols with 2 controllers, RvR MMO's, old-school 8-bit games, Diablo II? Really? Yeah, I engaged you bit on this, but these are all straw-mans to the point that an authentic...

We will just have to agree to disagree on what the actual market for this type of game is. In regards to the constant "it has to be done right" argument. The one thing people keep missing that in order to "do it right", the cost in development would still be so prohibative that the market...

Bingo. The market is not there for 2-button console that will rival PS4, XBone, or even the original Wii. Likewise, the market is not there for a AAA-EQ clone. The market is niche as hell and the budget (and quality) will have to reflect that. Huge world, lots of dungeons, tons of classes...

Honest question: Do you think a console with a 2-button controller could get Kickstarter funding in 2014?

When most players engage in this entertainment, they want their playtime to be as efficient as possible. Riding a horse may be fun, but when the point isn't riding the horse, it's getting to the park to see your friends, people will still take the car. That's the point. You still think riding...

It saddens me to watch people like Merlin thrash around begging for the horse-and-buggy version of MMO's when we are in the internal-combustion-engine era. You keep gripping that buggy whip, Merlin. Someday it will be worth a ton as an antique relic.

If that's true, then I am forced to assume that what he went to Microsoft with was a bar napkin with his name on it and a budget number. LOL @Microsoft indeed.

Shroud of the Avatar: Forsaken Virtues - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Yup, that's apples to apples if I've ever saw it.

There is also a market for buggy whips. If they're done correctly.

They did... it was called Plane of Fear.

Nah, they'd help fund a huge portion, but would demand a royalty. They'd probably do something like $800,000 for 49% (they aren't game developers, they don't want to be making those decisions), $1 royalty for every box sold and a $0.50 royalty on every monthly subscription. That sounds more...

I've met Lizard. He saw me when I was on Craag in Feerrott at level 5 and handed me a shield and some helm. My friend and I are discussing joining a guild, but I'm a little hesitant to join people who are so far ahead of us in progression. I know they'd be more than helpful in helping us...

This server is a blast. I'm currently playing with a RL friend that played the game when EQ came out in 1999. We are loving the way this server is balanced. We are each boxing 3 chars. I have a war/clr/mag and he is boxing an ench/shm/bard. We are working our way through levels and getting...

I really hope the devs take another look at the high-end Velious raids. Going away from the "small group" progession experience will really ruin the fun of this server. Sadly, I think the devs have moved on to Luclin since that is where the high-end guilds are now. Sad that it seems they are...

Well then color me pleasantly surprised. I'm liking this server the more and more I play and get to know the playerbase and devs.

Since this is a custom server, I'm wondering if the devs will reset ST after someone let's the Sleeper loose? There are arguments both ways, but as someone who still has chars in their 20's and so far away from raiding Velious it isn't even funny, obviously I would prefer they reset ST after a...

Just wanting to welcome all the sad-face Boston fans to the thread. WELCOME! And fuck the Patriots.

It's official. Manning bros are better than Brady.

Online as Kaines. Cleric. Also made 3 other characters depending on what ends up being needed later on.

It's good and bad. Hopefully I will be able to log in and play after work, but I really can't complain too much if their sever is capped. It's a free game after all. Will definitely be disappointed if I can't but I doubt they can afford the bandwidth for several hundred concurrent users either...

DAOC-Charplan download Good character builder app. Made for patch 1.70, but should work for this server.

Just wanted to interject something here... LT = Lawrence Taylor. Always has been. Always will be. Giving rushing stats for an OLB is retarded. Stop doing it. We now return you to your useless sports arguments. (that we all love. /popcorn)

If I do play for nostalgia, I will be rolling Albion. Love me some cleric.

ROFLMAO. Go ahead and keep thinking it's UT that is saying no to these coaches. I bet you think UT encouraged Saban to sign that extension too. You are so delusional. BREAKING: No one wants to coach Texas - The Big Mac Blog

Art Briles of Baylor Bears staying, 'no desire' to leave - ESPN Another name off the list. At this rate, they will end up hiring Mac Brown back as he's the best candidate out there.

Coaches in Dallas don't matter. They are empty sweat suits. Only Owner/GM and QB matter in Dallas.

Refs were SURE when they got on the plane, it was headed to Foxborough.

Kind of like how Spygate sealed Tom Brady's legacy at 3 rings and never any more?

Refs calling Pats/Ravens game like it's being played in Foxborough.

And SD beat DEN in Denver.... this week needs to go home, it's drunk.

Neither is the number of interceptions thrown off your left foot in the 2nd half while down by 7 or less.... but if it ended up Romo threw the most, you'd see Romo haters quoting it like some kind of mutated turrets where people can only spout useless Anti-Romo stats. Romo is not a top-5 QB in...

Ok now you want to talk about full games? Romo-haters are so confusing.

If by "twice as many" you mean he has 1 more than Tom Bradey, then sure. He also has the 3rd best QBR since 2006 in 4th quarters behind only P. Manning and Brees. That's right, boys and girls, he's better in the 4th quarter since 2006 than the Golden Boy (TM). The two faces of Tony Romo -...

Interceptions go against the QB. So Romo doesn't get a pass for any of them, no matter the reason. However, this offensive scheme is totally owned by Jason Garrett. If the scheme calls for 3 straight pass plays when up by over 2 td's in the 2nd half, then the scheme and the coach that...

Nick Saban agrees to new deal to stay with Alabama Crimson Tide - ESPN

Tostito's Fiesta Bowl destroys your strategy. MIND BLOWN!!!

GoW series. Mass Effect series, even if the ultimate ending is garbage. Assassin's Creed series. Batman: Arkham series. And a big 2nd to Lost Odyssey. Loved that game.

So Baylor would potentially have to go through Oklahoma, Alabama and Auburn. While OK St would get Michigan St., Stanford, and Florida St. Talk about getting kicked in the dick because you won your conference.
