You don't know how sick it makes me to see Mark Jacobs do something better than Brad. Do you guys even remember Jacobs at the end of WAR? That dude went off the deep end a few times. Is Scott our potential last hope? Too bad he's tied up in damage control.

I would love to be a fly on the wall at the VR office... or wherever they get together.

I don't see how people are missing the point? We all know it is not earth shattering in terms of the actual game or gameplay but it bring a level of uncertainty within the team itself. I mean, come on, this was dumb. No use watering it down. It was like they didn't even try. It could be...

Brad... we need something my friend. Give us something to lift our spirits. It is a downward spiral and something to make us think this is all ok would be great at this moment.

That's what i'm saying... I know it is too late but I don't understand why it was not thought of.. They need to limit the amount of blame they can expose themselves to as possible. I say this only because the information they are releasing is all we have to go on. It isn't like these...

I think thought... Since Brad is trying to put this hands of gamers, why don't he put up a poll for every class name? Easy fix. If they claim to not be KS pros and just developers, then turn it over to the community and save yourself of embarrassing and potentially damaging moments.

You can't say anything on the KS comments. They everything so literal or they don't get it at all. I'm waiting for the PCGamer article..... still

Money dropping below $180k

You have to think that people are going to be sensitive to the ebb and flows of this because the money isn't real just yet... However, in about 30 days, people are actually going to lose money out of their bank accounts. Thus, before it gets real, people are going to be very sensitive to the...

Aradune is up now and out of the lurk. Let's see what he says.

I'm not even going to chance reading the KS comments. I'll probably end up freaking out on someone.

At least it wasn't Sailor Moon :P

Works for me.... As I said earlier and others have now said... the name is just rooted too deeply into our pop culture. They're the pros but man, they may need to bounce everything off a text crowd before posting. I think this took them a couple of steps back. I'll probably reduce my...

So true... I had made about 3-4 negative posts so I thought I would try to bring some positive light to this... Side note... 20 years old and it is still the best RPG ever made IMHO.

I was thinking "Green Arrow" instead of a Ranger

In their defense.... Final Fantasy IV (II US) had Dark Knights, Dragoons, and Paladins. I will forgive them if they implement all 3 classes.

I'll save their artist some time and money...

I'm getting close to the fence now. I'm overlooking a lot because I think they have some great foundational ideas but some of this stuff is getting annoying.

Why a "Dark Knight" ? Could they not come up with anything better. No offense but in our pop culture, that name just doesn't hold much water. It just seems like a rip-off or overly generic. Not disappointed with the class but this seems like a lack of effort and/or creativity.

How difficult to get into just to group casually and have a good time?

You and me both. Brad.. Let us know when you need us to begin on a design doc. Lol

Yup... This x1000! If we get to where we can talk about a PvP server, let me know. May as well hire Flex, Jil, and I as consultants haha

The aforementioned conversation is EXACTLY how I want things to be. I directions like that and I honestly don't think you can have true high fantasy with a GPS. If you want an in-game map that reveals upon discovery and you can make notes on that's tolerable but in no way do I want a mini-map...

Is there even a server worth of players right now to get groups and level up? I honestly thought about loading the game up since I haven't played it since SoE took it over.

Do we really have to bring him up in this thread? It's bad enough he's associated with the EQ name anyway.

I think the KS reaction post PC Gamer article will be very revealing. They may have one other solid chance after that to captivate the consumer but they need to make their shots count from here on out.

I never went back and played VG after SoE took it over. Curious what it is like all these years later.

I like that idea as well. Seems like it would be easier to develop that idea as well.

Just a question regarding Brad's Q&A3... Brad, you mention that the planes will "at times" collide with the existing world, not always, but when they did things would be noticeable different. Without drawing comparisons to Rift as a "rift" would seem to be a lite version of what you are...

He really did the majority of my favorite zones. Unrest? Wow. Sebilis? Wow. Paludal. Wow.... Even the EQ2 zones were good ones. This is something worth touting. It may not mean much to some of the new gamers but us old folks this is the type of guy you want to see as part of the team.

You are a beautiful human being for this statement.

Wonder what it takes to get servers up for a few thousand people? When I did software administration we actually housed everything in our own datacenter but we had affiliates that "leased" part of cluster. Just curious what they are planning to do logistically with getting office computers...

Can't do LT subs on KS I thought?

Looking at the screen shot you know what I thought would have been cool if they could have (i'm sure it is too early for this suggestion) reconstructed Guk or Sebilis with this new engine. IF he's going to play around, I would have liked to have seen them literally walk through an upgraded...

I guess that just shows everyone has their preferences. While i'm sure it is the minority preference I would choose EQII visually over WoW. EQII always felt a little more real to me allowing me to get more deeply immersed into the game. However, I never felt they used it to their full...

Yes... PvP was the best. They eventually messed it up but was a great time while it lasted.

Very true. I remember that well. Me and some of my closet friends played both and I raided through WotLK but toughed out EQ2 all the way through. Honestly, I look back and enjoyed EQ2 so much more. I think it was one of those rewarding moments of "seeing something through" because in the...

Camp Check?

Update #6

My only concern is where this is such a targeted group that their niche audience isn't going to be enough to pull this KS campaign off. Those of us that know and like what Brad is saying probably know about it and have made their decision. I'm hoping i'm very much wrong. This week will tell a...
