It’s not even just that. If poor game balance results in some FOTM asshole taking stuff it took me hours to get in the game, then my desire to keep playing plummets

Instead, you have to spam keywords to random NPCs until they say something “what fiery avenger?” “what strange things?” “phat lootz”

Most of the time, people who want forced PvP don’t want a challenge. They want to gank some low risk random and steal their shit

The problem with the EQ epic quests and lore was how quests in general worked in the game. Everything was hidden or not obvious, so people usually found step 10 before step 1 and most of the solving was done via brute force or devs leaking to guilds. If there was a story, you got it out of...

Unless they change their original design philosophy, I'm pretty sure they indicated it will be forced PvP with some type of rep/crime system. Which I am 10000% certain won't be exploited like every other forced PVP game that was ever made which tried to employ the same type of rep/crime system.

The irony here is the very thing you're lauding EQ1 for doing in terms of lore, everyone shat on Fallout 76 for at launch for doing the same thing

Ya, to Tentacus Prime

Transition on the new Savage fight

It's forum posters like you who have ruined your own lands, you'll not ruin mine!

I do agree that disguised grinds are better than “kill 10000 mobs” grinds. That is why WoW felt better than EQ1 in terms of grinding. The problem is disguised grinds take effort to design and mindless grinds are easy to implement

Endless, mandatory grind mechanics are bad for the long term health of a game, though. AA in Everquest are actually a great example. I'm heard they eventually changed them a bit, but at least for the few expansions following their introduction, it was pretty much impossible to ever catch up to...

Given the scope of the world (or at least what they claim the scope will be), I suspect it will be cut back significantly and they'll just release new chunks to give some meat to their updates. Either that or it will be some bland copy-paste shit that would make FFXIV 1.0 blush that they will...

The next mission to Venus that actually goes onto the planet is more likely to be a flying thing than a surface thing. The surface is a very difficult technical challenge due to the extreme temperatures and pressures. The upper atmosphere is more Earth like in terms of temperature and outside...

The worst type of feature creep is the "promised feature but it becomes hard to actually implement as promised". The promised ones are where you run into trouble, because if you over promise and under deliver, it can be a pretty rough death blow to your game in terms of playerbase perception...

No one gives a shit about the VP once they are VP, but people do care about VP during the campaigns since they can become major distractions and sabotage the campaign as a result

At some point I want to go back and play the missed content, but they've changed so much I would have to read guides. Been playing some Star Trek Online since S3 Picard got me interested in some Trek stuff. Game is pretty janky, but the space combat is cool and the Dominion/DS9 themed episode...

With the exception of really ancient shit that used isometric perspective/was effectively 2D, virtually every MMO EQ1 and onward allowed movement while melee attacking. Like others stated, this reeks of mobile game ported to PC

That honestly is my biggest concern about it. AoC seems like a checklist of "shit that personally annoyed Sorcerer in Archeage" in terms of a lot of the design and a chunk of that has proven, in the western market, to be very unpopular. Primarily, losing your hard earned stuff when you get...

But that perception extends beyond just perception in the cognitive sense. Time in the respect of how your body or materials age is altered. For example, if I am traveling at 99% the speed of light, 5 years for me is 36 years for everyone else not traveling that fast. I would have only aged...

We know mass and speed can both effect how the passage of time is perceived by the impacted subject. We've been able to demonstrate relativistic time is real already, which means if you expand it to speeds approaching light, then the effect would be magnified. It doesn't prove time travel in...

In terms of the homecoming line

lol

At relativistic speeds, you would age at a rate slower than everything else. Granted we can't do that at the moment either, but it would be another method of traveling forward in time (so to speak) One thing to keep in mind is the Library of Alexandria, by the time Muslims had shown up, was a...

Boba refers to Jango as his father, then Sasha Banks replies “you mean your donor” and they get in a fight

Ocean content was a very large and fun part of Archeage, so not surprised he wants to replicate it

Boba Fett is a clone of Jango Fett, as are all the clones from the Clone Wars

Wintergrasp was the best PvP they ever had in the game, but too many little bitches cried about vehicles and they never did anything interesting ever again

Dark Side Smuggler is kinda funny too. Like that one sith where she is like “we can bang if you help me” and then you do after killing that Jedi lol

Additional thoughts

The MSQ also had clues on the next xpac. That odd letter Krile ignores and then Thancred talks to Urianger about “the client”

Even though Tina Turner’s main career was music, Thunderdome is still the first thing I associate her with

You forget that the TOS vs TNG+ division was a lot stronger back then , as it was very much a new vs older fan thing at the time To put it in perspective, less time had passed since the end of TOS and the movie Generations (25 yrs) than Generations to now. The fan base has aged and now the...

Thing that always annoyed me about Sith Inquistor is you become Emperor…then later on in future patches they’re like “lol you got kicked out”

Lower Decks live action - curious what the crossover plot will be. Holodeck makes the most sense

SWTOR gets an asterisk for the 1-50 story depending on your class. Everyone creams for IA story, but the regular sith or Jedi or trooper ones are kinda mediocre

Im just saying if time travel was possible, a unidentifiable person taking the sword is the perfect historical event for a time traveler to slip into as the unknown man, as it doesn’t disrupt the current timeline as we know it

Perfect thing of value to get to not disrupt the timeline: the Honjō Masamune. It is considered to be the finest Japanese sword ever created and a national treasure of Japan. It vanished in the aftermath of WW2 when it was supposedly handed over to the US Army rep, but the US claims the...
