    Ya, I hope Smed's comments about EQN's difficulty are true and not just bullshit posturing.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I think this has proven that indeed, there is no more market for a classic EQ clone. I'm pretty sure the last groups of people who give a shit about that era of MMORPGs are located here at rerolled and on P99. It's probably about 10,000 people, and not nearly enough to sustain a studio-backed...

    Ask him when he played it, because I'm under a very different impression. Also, Flight's post consists of a disgruntled ex-coworker expose. I never take those seriously, and neither should you. The dikumud source code stuff is even more ridiculous now than it was then.

    Well that would require people do some actual research before they post. As of now, this whole exchange reminds me of a fucking tabloid. It wouldn't take much to do the argument justice. Someone who played both early EQ and Sojourn could easily post an analysis of similarities between the two...

    I agree, but if you are gonna trash someone's reputation, at least have the decency to do so with facts. All I've seen put forward are some very loose correlations between some EQ Spells/items (which Brad didn't work on, btw) and entrenched RPG systems found in everything since early DND. So...

    Oh come the fuck on. The kickstarter failed and the project is a joke. There really is no need to attack the guy's whole legacy. It serves no purpose, and is just shitty.

    I levelled to 10 quite quickly in one of the beta weekends without doing a single quest past that prison breakout place, iirc. Just ran around killing things.

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    @Stave I totally agree. Wildstar has almost everything on the market beat in the 'flavour' department. That's probably why I'm having a hard time enjoying it. I really dislike the setting/flavour, and that's the thing they are implementing the most effectively.

    I agree that the combat doesn't feel very good at all. I've gotten used to it though, and I find it quite a bit less noticeable. I still think the game they created within Cyrodil is quite engaging and well done. You're right though. I wish campaign switching was behind a very severe real money...

    I think you need to look up the definitions of quantitative and qualitative. Especially since you responded to my post with 100% qualitative information. Im perfectly aware of the importance of fun when playing a video game. Saying that 'fun' isn't quantifiable isn't an insult to the game...

    WoW 'killed' the genre? WoW grew the MMORPG player base from ~750,000 to 12million+... Blizzard responded to what their customers were telling them, and have sustained their product for nearly a decade. Nobody else can boast that. It wasn't WoW that killed the genre, it was the copycats. Can...

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    I doubt a GTX 760 would be taken full advantage of by that old of a CPU anyway. If Landmark is gonna be your primary game for the next little while just go with a GTX 750 ti. Should be just fine for it. My GF is rocking a GTX 650 ti BOOST, i7-2600, 12gb ddr3 and she's seeing consistent 30fps...

    Using Kickstarter's own infrastructure to send notification emails to its subscribers redirecting them to your private crowdsourcing site, disguised as a 'kickstarter campaign update'... before your campaign is over. You stay classy, San Diego.

    Their biggest mistake was not screening the KS page with rerolled (or at least a small focus group) before launching. I'm 100% positive that if the had gone that direction, this thing would be looking at meeting stretch goals instead of failing. The stretch goals... pledge tiers...
