We get it. We got it 7 years ago. You've said your piece over and over. Many people agree with you, many people think Brad deserves a second chance. Move on.

He probably gets a EQ quest completion sound everytime his kickstart gets another 1k and it probably went off ten times in a row.

hah

Not sure why you would. This community is obviously attached to this project.

I always thought it'd be funny to have ebay-like user ratings and reviews of players. Would be terrible but still funny.

Are they a must? I feel like LFG and guild tools streamline the process by removing a huge part of the social aspect. I also don't see why a gear score filter on a LFM UI doesn't make sense if LFM/LFG UIs a must.

The big things that made EQ take a time commitment in EQ were: 1. Camps. 2. Really slow combat, buffing periods and regen. 3. Getting to the content you wanted took a long time. (either because it's at the bottom of a dungeon or the world is large and there's no fast travel) 4. Most content...

The communication from people here about Pantheon is great. I think Aradune/Machail thinks they can put out a PCGamer and IGN article and word will get out. Which is pretty misguided.

That plus the subreddits for a particular game have the selection bias where most people like the game. /r/gaming doesn't have that problem though.

Pretty much. Reddit is a great community website. It has its flaws but for distribution of desirable information to the internet it's king.

He's heard your shit, drop it and in three years if things go poorly you can smugly claim that if only he followed your advice everything would be great.

People have been making the same complaints via the surveys for almost a year now.

If I play there is no other group of people I'd want to roll with more than this community.

If any Pantheon guys (Or any game developer) wants a poll we can merge it into this thread. Making a new subforum would probably lower visibility and hurt discussion. Like Draegan says if a forum community forms around the game we'll make a new forum for it. And if it's successfully funded...

If Machail/Aradune hasn't made accounts and posted about Pantheon on the twenty or so MMO sites by the end of this week they don't really want it enough.

Silva's only successful technique in the first fight was his leg kicks. It's silly for him to say that Weidman wasn't prepared for the leg kicks that time. But A. Silva is brazilian so I guess he has to say things like that. Either way I'm glad he's feeling well enough to talk shit.

The best combination is having fights with simultaneous ground telegraphs and sky telegraphs.

Would love to see even a sketch of a layout for a non-instanced map that shows they're for real on old-school dungeons.

Re: Professional farmers and bots, from my experience they exist in very easy, very infrequently trafficked areas. If you put all the good gear in the bottom of dungeons like guk they won't be able to access it so easily. Instead they'll be farming hill giants in Rathe Mountains.

I saw no foreshadowing in the trailer or the books about Joeffrey / Tywin. Joeffrey was a dead man walking as soon as the character was introduced, but Tywin really took me by surprise.

I feel like long-time EQ and VG players are pretty happy with their current games and are generally unwilling to switch to another game

"We're excited to provide EA fans with content the way they want it."

I thought it could go either way. Many game worlds are randomly generated or made with really rough tools and filled in. The line between hand built and auto generated can get thin and blurry.

You had your chance to make a solid prediction. And you made a terrible one. Either way you're the prototypical person that mkopec is talking about here. Talked shit for a year about how bad Xbones would fail and here we are and they're fine.

What was your sales prediction for the contest?

I agree that people here should fund this game but you're creating a false dichotomy between WoW clones like TESO and Pantheon. Also if people believe this game, if funded, would produce a poor entry into the 'old school MMO' genre they should be afraid that it would poison the well for several...

Are you talking about the zone connection between North Qeynos and Qeynos Hills?

TEXT!! POST!

It's going to be tough for my rig to take all that cloud computing that was going on in EA servers.

I'm not a huge lore guy but yeah the collection of fallen planes colliding together in an earthquake doesn't really grab me. Personally I'd prefer my MMOs start out pretty grounded with a few blips of irregularity tucked away. If crazy shit is happening all the time I'm afraid my fairly normal...

The one thing I never got is why stretch goals are linear. I get that the price difference between the previous goal isn't necessarily the estimated cost but if UI Mod functionality was near 200k and gnomes were 200k who would pick gnomes over UI? Same with player housing vs mobile app. I...

I agree with this 100%, and would add that it needs a section update like: "How will Pantheon be different from other MMOs?" I know personally I only have enough desire and time to get invested in one MMO every year or two, and I need to be re-assured that the next MMO I play is...

GW2 tried soooo hard to get it right even to the point of giving underwater breathing, super fast swimming, crystal clear underwater vision and OP underwater abilities. But it was still a hassle. There's just nothing that underwater combat brings to the table.

KS looks pretty good. I'll throw $45 at it. You guys talking about how the pledges won't add up to the funded amount are forgetting they can add more and that having a lowish number gives a sense of scarcity.

What izo said.

It all depends on the info that comes out. Right now there's a huge derth of good MMOs and the current MMO on the forefront (TESO) is an expensive disaster waiting to happen. People in general are pretty tired of the WoW clones that have come out. In general the gaming scene is pretty ripe for a...

I get the feeling that the shakeup by the end of the books will be enough that Robb making Jon an heir won't be as big of an impact as say, Jon being azor ahai, being able to ride dragons, or generally doing whatever heroic shit he does if GRRM revives him like we expect.

Randomized timers means camping mobs and having tracking classes parked everywhere, forget that. I doubt I'd ever PVE raid again but if I did my preference would be to have weekly resetting instances for 75% of the mobs and the other 25% be outdoor mobs that respawned at set times (preferably...
