    When I was making that graph in the previous page, I thought it was interesting that illegal immigration was labeled so low. So I included all foreign born people and their descendants, coming up to 80 million since 1950 (23% of the US population). Grok pieced together regional data where...

    Anno 117: Pax Romana

    Today is the first day Ive really been able to sit down. Been playing since 5am this morning. Spent most of the morning trying to finish up the campaign, but when it took me BACK to my celtic province, I closed it and started a fresh endless map. About 30 minutes ago, I got up to tier 4 where...

    If you want to call the kettle black, just say so: -Edit for an add- Bottom Line That’s $400–$500 less per month for the average renter. And rent burden would be back to 1950s levels: ~15% of income.

    Anno 117: Pax Romana

    This is probably a good approach, unfortunately. Like.. I feel like stuff is missing but I cant quite put my finger on what it is thats missing. On another note altogether - is there a command to look at your village from a citizen's point of view? Saw some views from the trailer, and thought...

    Running this on a 4090, my computer sounds like a rocket and the rooms temperature has increased by 3 degrees in the last 30 minutes. The Ray Tracing is a bit demanding, lol.

    😂 No caps anymore? Sure! We’ll use your numbers for hp and not rebuke the dps numbers under your narrative! Stuff totally died within 15 seconds at Lord/arch/frenzy.

    I can cherry pick mobs, too! But I guess you're not counting cleric and shaman buffs that were on fucking everything! Hell, lets go a step further and strip away the fact that a lot of people didnt have an fbss, or even good weapons if theyre farming Lord - so now our DPS is even less! Lets...

    TTK is based off equal level con. The mobs from the main entrance to Lguk are 24 to 46. You know this as well as I do. I also answered your questions in particular, but now those arent good enough. Shame on me for engaging with you when I already knew the outcome.

    The subject in discussion was the increase in time to kill. Which was being discussed because of said problems I listed. Which a longer TTK will indirectly inspire either the solo person thats killing multiple low level mobs to reach out to people and group in their appropriate level range - OR...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    There just isnt enough content/itemization to deter the bullshittery of whats happening in Wyrmsbane, Ancient Crypt etc. at low levels. (Level 20+'s farming named lvl 10 mobs, cock blocking lvl 8 groups for example.) So more content will definitely help out here like you're saying. Increasing...

    This shit is a banker's wet dream. Lets say a 620 has the minimum down payment required (highly doubtful), and they can afford the payment "per income" (highly doubtful) - they'll be paying 12-15% interest. Double, if not more than what the current 740+ score can obtain. So a 150k house at...

    I had a bunch of mats and was wasting it on something in alchemy, a red recipe - not once did it succeed (before I noticed) out of 20 tries - but I never got a skill up either. However, other stuff Ive failed at light blue and it did skill up off the fail. So if I had to theorize, theyre using...

    To parachute into the thread and write novels about their disdain for the game, over, and over, and over again every time someone says they like the game is just insane to me. Especially when its an indie project game that hasnt charged anything. Pantheon, I could at least understand - but this...

    Put 30k into it Friday at its low cause I figured that was a no brainer. As soon as I saw a two candle dip under 107, I got out of it. If it dips below 100k again, Ill put money back into it again. I wish I could see "the writing on the wall" with other shit like this.

    Eastern Wastes? Or Western Wastes? Think you got the two backwards, personally. If you're talking about Western Wastes, I liked the inaccessibility of it, but only to the extent of myself and close friends. Getting the whole gaggle fuck of your guild there (back then) was fucking awful...

    I get what he's saying, though. I think - personally - that you should be able to transition between the two modes "at will". Shouldnt need to do some arbitrary achievements just to do that. The two flight modes are as different as WoW's Slow Fall and EverQuest's Levitate (in terms of...

    I dont wholeheartedly believe that these guys are trying to mimic EverQuest 100%. Especially when we're talking about the degenerate nature of what is in EverQuest in the past, present or future. So its valuable, even here because at least one of the dev's has commented here, to talk about...

    The one and only time Ive ever supported a project - Landmark/EQ:Next - and I feel like Pony Tail was the major factor why that game never saw daylight. They had the player base designing EVERYTHING - Players paying for the development of the game AND IT STILL DIDNT COME OUT? What in the...
