wow, i didn't realize draegan was the swamp donkey...

how exactly is wanting a game with relevant content, meaningful loot, diversified classes, and sprawling dungeons that aren't just one giant corridor a step backwards in game design?

most of the people posting here played EQ for 4 or more years. so if EQ sucked so bad, yet you played it for that many YEARS, then you're either: A) a fucking retard or B) a fucking liar (and you actually liked the game) so, which one are you?

i love it when people like you use the word nostalgia like it's an insult. maybe you should look up the definition before you try using it? nostalgia is a word which precisely encapsulates how i recall my time playing everquest. you know what word comes to mind when recalling my time playing...

well, you WoW nard danglers are just as hilarious if you think there was anything even remotely difficult about raiding in WoW. neither game was inherently "difficult." winning the masters is difficult, playing a video game is not. but at least in EQ, if you sucked as a player you may not be...

you'll probably bash me for saying this, but your game, the game that you want and are describing, is everquest. this is essentially what made everquest so great. you want the best loot? join a top raiding guild and get it. there was no other way. there was no pandering or catering to the weak...

bingo. this was the point i was really trying to convey. i don't see any reason why you can't do both. i think EQ did both very, very well. not initially, as there wasn't really much of an end game before ROK came out. but ROK and SOV had a great mix of excellent end game content as well as...

i really don't get your vitriol over longer leveling curves. if the game is fun and challenging from the very first moment that you log in, then why is longer leveling curves a problem? i had a blast leveling through EQ and it never felt like a chore or something that i hated (except for the...

true, but at the same time i fail to understand why so many people believe that a game like EQ could not be successful in today's market. i find it ironic that so many people who played EQ for so long can't even comprehend the reasons why they liked the game so much in the first place. in my...

so what you're saying is we should just learn to lower our standards instead of expecting a game to be good like EQ was? newsflash: there were plenty of cheat sites available even when everquest first came out, so your theory of why games can never be like EQ again doesn't even make any sense...

i agree with you completely. the thing i loved about EQ right from the start was the fact that they just dropped you into the game and let you go. i started as a high elf in felwithe and just started running around, exploring the game. even from the very beginning, when i was just going a few...

are you fucking retarded? most hardcore gamers are teenagers to people in their early to mid 20's. that is the main demographic for all games, not just MMO's. and those people have plenty of money (even if it's their parents) and plenty of free time. most of the hardcore players who were there...

wrong. just because the majority of people who may post here have gotten older and don't have the same amount of free time, doesn't mean that all gamers everywhere are older and don't have free time. newsflash: most games are made for KIDS, and there are hundreds of millions of them out there...

i whole heartedly agree with this statement. it's the only logical explanation as to why anyone could possibly like the star wars prequels.

it was star wars and bioware. that combination alone should have been enough to have over 10 million subs without even trying. the fact that the game is almost barren already probably makes it one of the biggest flops in video game history. SWTOR is the "gigli" of MMO's.

call me crazy, but i actually really enjoyed raiding in EQ, even when we had 100+ on some of the raids. trying to kill the avatar of war, dain, yelinak, clearing fear, etc...those were some of the most fun i had playing. i personally hate the thought of raid caps. if you have 20 man, 30 man, or...

i'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks that the red glow around the targeted mobs is gay as fuck. it got on my nerves just watching the demo. i couldn't imagine trying to play the game for a few hours with it.

i'd like to see a screenshot....

hard factions fucking suck. i don't care that they made it 3 instead of 2. you know what's better than 3? NONE!

the problem is, we all know what we wanted when it came to an elder scrolls MMO, and this pile of dog shit is the exact opposite.

friends of mine bought me and my twin brother a copy of "akira" for our 15th birthday party. still one of the best birthday gifts i've ever received. we were so enthralled with watching that movie, we didn't even want to leave to go to the party.

no, vanguard sucked. but it was still light years better than most of the crap that has been released in the past 5 years. that's how bad things have gotten.

i haven't played a MMO since vanguard, so for fuck's sake can someone produce something worth playing? i was looking forward to this one, but nothing i've seen so far from TESO has given me a chubby. in fact, it's left me about as flaccid as looking at pics of swamp donkey...

ferrell has had more strike outs than home runs lately, but he's still funny as shit. talladega nights was funny as hell, so was step brothers. the other guys wasn't very good, but it had some classic moments (when the rock and samuel jackson jump off that building may be the hardest i've ever...

not trying to be a dick, but what do you mean if RVR is done right? seriously, how many times can you play capture the flag or storm the castle before you're bored to tears? what would actually make RVR really viable in a game?

i keep hearing people say "the game mechanics that made EQ so addictive wouldn't work today." why the fuck not? you mean making loot meaningful, harder to obtain and having a death penalty that made you want to play smarter and actually care about staying alive wouldn't work today? having no...

you forgot about car washes. black athletes, for whatever reason, like to open car washes.

i know nothing really solid has been released about the game yet, but the more they talk about it, the more it sounds like another darkfall or mortal online, and that makes me want to puke.

honestly, the most surprised i've ever been at an animated movie was probably "aladdin" just because i was a freshman in high school and thought cartoon movies with singing were completely fucking gay, but i went with some friends and our dates and the movie we wanted to see was sold out so we...

this game would have failed no matter what, because from all the vids i've seen, it was an exact fucking clone of WoW.

i did the VG beta and up until just about a month or so before the game was released, it was so fucking bad i hardly ever played (and neither did anyone else). it was seriously an unplayable piece of crap. although the game at release was still an "almost" unplayable piece of crap, considering...

i'd gladly pay $10 or $15 (hell even $20) a month over having a free to play game with a cash shop. if the game is actually worth playing and i'm having fun, then literally 50 cents a day is no sweat off my back. i don't live in an impoverished country where that is a big deal to me and i'd...

look up the definition of the word except, and you'll understand what i said. if i say "i had millions of dollars and spent it all and now i have nothing to show for it except for the memories," then see the word except is excluding something from the nothing i am referring to. it takes about a...

well, what i meant was what they had actually completed after nearly 6 years and hundreds of millions of dollars should have been able to be done in a month.

the fact that every single post you make includes you using the terms "neck beards" or "hipsters" invalidates just about everything you have to say. either find a way to increase your lexicon or stop posting because at this point you just sound like a parrot.

i'm not happy that 38 studios failed, i'm not rejoicing in what happened to curt schilling as i'm sure his intentions were good, and i understand completely why moorgard would want to say positive things about his employer and friend. what i am more than anything is completely and hopelessly...

another animated movie that i really enjoyed was "howl's moving castle."

WALL-E surprised me because i wasn't really expecting a movie with that much depth. i mean, it was a movie about robots. so i was impressed by just how good it really was (not just as an animated movie, but just as a movie in general). also, rango was surprisingly good. went into that movie...

i always liked val. his role as doc holliday in "tombstone" was epic. i also liked him as john holmes in the movie "wonderland" which was a great film that never got the notoriety it deserved.

as buggy as vanguard was, i had more fun playing that game than any other MMO in the past 6 years.
