    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    I'd play day one just to stream it, but honestly, I get more viewers on average from streaming Lotro than I ever got from streaming EQ. I say that because I don't think people actually realize just how small is the EverQuest community. It isn't going to take many back-to-back bad TLP years...

    My brother and I have started doing something... different... on the unofficial Hardcore Mode server, Bloodsail. We started characters that are NOT using the Hardcore plugin. While we will play other characters WITH the Hardcore plugin on this server, we also wanted to play characters in old...

    That is fucking hilarious right there. Monk pulls mobs on to you, FDs, and the mobs attack you but you can't damage them. Gold status griefing incoming lol.

    It's not like anyone told them this was in fact the stupidest idea ever conceived in the history of stupid ideas conceived for EverQuest.... oh that's right. EVERYBODY TOLD THEM.

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    Reality is they are never going to stop making bad business decisions when it comes to their games. It is what it is... that simple. The best thing that could happen to EQ is everybody stop paying them for anything and let the game die already. Maybe a decade from now someone will buy the IP...

    Evil Dead Rise (2023)

    Brother and I went to see this last night at the movies. We both commented after words that it was good but not as about a 3 to 3.5. It definitely was not the same not having Bruce Cambell in it, but it was good enough to stand on its own if you don't knock it for not being centered around...

    Are there any decent web-based turn-based RPGs out there right now?

    I have it on my phone, and I play it from time to time when I get a second. The problem is that it still is "action" oriented in that you have to physically run the character from fight to fight. I'm looking for something that literally is click to move to next room, click to search, click to...

    Not a horrible idea, but I'm not sure having a gameboy out on my desk sends a good message lol.

    Are there any decent web-based turn-based RPGs out there right now?

    I'm looking for a web-based game that I can play while working, so it can't be graphical and action-based. I'm looking for an old-school web-based turn-based game where you can take a turn, alt-tab to do some work, and then alt-tab back to take another turn once in a while. Is there anything...

    I enjoyed the stress test a lot. This game is the closest any game has ever gotten to making me feel like I am playing EverQuest on day one. Just so cool.

    Renfield (2023)

    Went and saw it at the theater last night. It was good. Had it's moments that made me laugh. I would have given it a 3.5 if the ratings let me, so I went with a 3.

    Two monks working together could train a horde of mobs to both sides of a zone line that they know you are running to, and you will be dead before your screen refreshes and can start Selos.

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I just wanted to point out something along the lines of this thread. There is no perfect MMORPG for everyone. There's rarely even a MMORPG that is a 9 out of 10 for most people for more than a short while (after the new wares off). The thing is, we pick the MMO that we play based on how...

    Odyssey, A Blizzard Entertainment Project

    I really liked Valheim a lot. It was a great game with a lot of potential to me. I've always wondered why nobody has modded it to make the giants look like those in Attack On Titan because the mechanics of how it works with them attacking your settlement and all could easily be modded in to...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I used to be a big proponent of group-based content, but as I get older and have more responsibilities in life, I just don't see requiring group-based content to progress in a MMORPG as being sustainable game design. It only truly works for the youngest of players (or no lifers) that have no...

    Fires of Heaven and our continued disappointment

    I think the issue with the MMO industry is that they're trying to make games that last a life time ... because that's what we want, but reality is that we shouldn't expect a game to last 25+ years. No game can be designed with a multi-decade life span baked in with out certain parts of that...

    EQ TLP - Oakwynd (Evolving Ruleset Progression Server)

    It sounds stupid, but one of the best things a streamer can do is always stream as if hundreds of people are watching you EVEN IF NO ONE IS WATCHING YOU. If you only entertain when you see people watching you, it feels extremely fake. You want the viewer to feel like they came in to an...

    Holy shit. Look at that. I've still got the most replied to thread (non-pinned) in the Veteran forum! Suck it bitches! For the record, there were some really nice ideas posted in that thread, and some actually got implemented in the game. So... in a way... I am responsible for EQ being a...

    Honestly, the worst part about this game is not being able to guarantee that the card you base each deck around actually gets pulled in your hand at some point in the game. I can't tell you how many times I have played a deck and never gotten the actual card the deck was designed around to be...

    There are a number of ways to make FTE not suck as bad as it probably will. Here's some off the top of my head. Only certain zones are FTE enabled Only named mobs will be FTE enabled After a short time between FTE lock and no damage done to the mob will drop FTE lock immediately with out mob...

    LOL I just thought of a FTE nightmare some idiot will most definitely try at some point. Get 5 levels as a human bard in Freeport area, then go to the newbie yard and kite everything for hours on end, so not one single spawn can be killed by any new players just starting out.
