    You mentioned no fast travel or "punishing downtime". Aside from the fact that groups in EQ (and MnM) actually really dont really have much downtime at all - its more of a thing when you are soloing, or camping named mobs and not worried about exping - I actually agree with where you are coming...

    Yes, however the "tedium" can have higher level effects outside of its direct effect that influence the extent to which the "world" works as a world and not just an extraction moba or whatever. Its the whole is greater than the parts bit. This doesnt mean everything tedious is good and...

    The tedium is only relevant if it is necessary to create the environment that you somewhat outlined in your 1 and 2 points. In that sense, the people shouting about tedium being bad always and why cant i just solo and do what I want when I want miss the point just as much as the people who want...

    This is why i usually roll necro. If kids are asleep etc. then i group up and whatnot, but I short afk alot and dont feel like its fair to a group. Can pop FD and afk whenever i want. Also why I despise the WoW constantly moving style of lvling compared to the EQ sit at camp and chill style.

    If I had to guess, id say a decent amount of those quit for the reason you are saying. However, alot of that is controlled for because most people trying it out have probably looked into it or watched youtube videos about it before joining in. I have had a couple friends who just dont want to...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I think you are correct, and IMO they are overcorrecting the issue of classic EQ which is why even make a melee until velious or luclin. Having caster dps be less than melee in a group environment while casters also have the option to solo (melee not so much, some can but not as well) i think...

    Fighters are just absolute monsters currently, i dont think any class touches the amount of dps they can pump in in a short period of time. Wizards do get a self only mana regen buff and also a substantial spell haste buff, and are really strong at soloing - which is something the fighter...

    I think people are attributing far too much of their own bias to the under 5 hour number. I'm sure some people loaded up lost their lvl 2 corpse and quit - but I wouldnt think that level of aversion to challenge and lack of curiosity is as high as some peoples on the FoH boards.

    WoW is garbage until end game, which was some of the best raiding ever. I say IS because when it came out it certainly wasn't garbage; it was new / novel and the whole being a solo hero, getting new quest at every new area every 4-5 lvls and replacing gear every 4-5 levels was captivating to a...

    You are correct, it isnt a one to one to most your statements. I like to think of it as more descriptive of you in general though. Anyway, you loot box enthusiast fast traveler fans can all keep posting we will all keep playing. PL offer on the table whenever you decide to give it a go.

    I dont know why the dark is still being complained about the gamma slider nullifies it. Dont even have to blast it just turn it to 75-80.

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    You guys have fun playing MMOs? In general for me its about progression and competition in the context of needing many other people working together to achieve those goals. I enjoy an open, competitive environment where items are scarce and hard to get as well, whether that be through skill or...

    Waiting for things to cook is never a bad thing, however there is actually quite alot of content - and ALOT that people have not even been able to touch yet due to lvl/difficulty. I know taking pantheon as a standard is probably the worst thing to do, but there is more content in one zone here...

    Im all set on the therapy part, but if you want to try out the game you type about let me know and I can PL you so you can see stuff outside of the noob area. Then you can type about the actual game content and mechanics.

    Depends on the class you pick as well. 1/3-1/2 of them can solo just fine.

    no they have the dates posted for the next two or three 5 day open alphas. Characters will remain through those atleast (im guessing they wipe when it turns into beta that is just speculation though)

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    I do PVP on the open alpha to mix it up, as the closed alpha is PVE and my main one. They shut down the closed alpha server when the open alpha tests happen. Those drops are in general BIS though from wyrmsbane, and on the PVE most casters camp wyrmsbane for the no drop class armor pieces well...

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    PVP server wyrmsbane loot def worth, because ranged / offhand slots are not lootable and all the no drop class armor is from there. In general, other than that idol being a BIS for a while there is also a haste cloak and mini hiero cloak like item that drops there

    who is paying? ive tried to pay them, they wont take it. Edit - seems you mean during EA. Perhaps they will charge monthly sub then, however at that point it will probably be warranted unlike pantheon. I mean, just one zone (Fallen Pass) currently has more content than all of pantheon pretty...
