    I remember SWToR getting really good pre-release hype. And the Xbox One suffered more from "MS made some really stupid decisions that they retracted from but will probably try to shift in again" rather than "The xbone is going to be awful". TESO is pretty much unsalvageable at this point.

    I second the 'healers doing damage' stuff. In full healing gear with full healing spec if I stopped healing and DPS'd as much as I could I should be able to deal at least 50% the damage of a similarly geared/skilled DPS class. Same goes for tanks.

    I don't even care who knows what game I'm playing but I also abhor anytime anything wants me to start connecting shit to social media. Make it an option if you must, but allow me to disable it easily (Preferably disable it by default)

    Yeah. I don't even like the idea of new classes being stuffed into expansions. It makes sense if there's a gap that needs to be filled but I've never seen an xpac class that wasn't just a hybrid of existing types.

    Nothing wrong with liking PVP in battlegrounds. In terms of micro-strategy it's always going to be more deep than open world PVP. It's just so repetitive, boring and plain for me.

    This would be especially good if mobs could stealth up and pickpocket you then stash the gear in a nearby chest.

    Right now all we know is the guy who made Everquest is looking to make an MMO and asking what we want. So naturally we're excited that he might make what we want. Nothing wrong with that, nobody is really assuming what the game will be like yet. One the kickstarter comes out and real details...

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    We didn't make them extinct though, which is the precondition I added.

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    Maybe I'm using the word modern man wrong but mammoths were the first thing I thought of when I was thinking about extinct animals. There's also a number of animals that were native to some area that got completely wiped out when man entered that area. They'd be completely unafraid of man and...

    Useful sure but "Bee's all die = we all die." Isn't too much of a hyperbole, but you couldn't dream about saying that about anything that's extinct thus far. In fact I can't name a single animal that's gone extinct from modern man that's really been an inconvenience.

    Yeah the bee thing is pretty serious. I heard that EU outlawed a bunch of pesticides that were shown to be cocking over the bees and now their population is coming back. Personally it seems hard to believe that such a domesticated and useful animal would ever go instinct and once we figured out...

    I agree that there was no group vs solo mobs in EQ, but many areas were very ripe for kiting mobs.

    That shit happened but it was rare enough that it made the game interesting rather than ruined my leveling experience. Plus the guy doing the PLing would usually get bored enough to make it dangerous and kill himself.

    Your assumption is that if they weren't twinked they wouldn't be getting powerleveled. I would argue that they would be more likely to be getting powerleveled. If I'm a popular person in my guild and need to roll an alt, if I can twink it I can just cruise through the levels and maybe someone...

    Big difference is that in vanilla EQ you couldn't get a fiery sword of preening from a level 15 mob. One of the top twink items was a FBSS that gave ~20% haste and was reasonably difficult to get. If you build a world with no instancing and little amount of loot then twinking becomes a lot...

    Also fuck item degradation, fuck limited numbers of arrows, and fuck being unable to powerlevel and twink people. Powerleveling is another element of socialization that has been stripped from MMOs. In EQ if you needed to roll an alt and had a friend with a druid/mage/shaman/whatever they...

    There's basically three types of PVP, and generally someone who likes PVP likes one of these categories. 1. Random PVP: the shit you get where you're contending over resources with a random person in some area. Including when a high level player comes in and griefs for fun. 2. Battleground...

    Yup. First person should be limited to horror games (Where a limited perspective is hugely important) and FPS games. Just copy WoW's camera system and be done with it.

    It had no honor system at launch. The PVP was best at launch when everyone was too busy leveling and gearing to go to low level areas and stomp newbies. It's an extremely bad sign that the max level is level 17 a few months from launch.

    I imagine that he could be in the Deerfield obits or in the Miami ones too, so it's tough to narrow stuff down. I'd guess his age to be ~30 based on his pics.
