I wouldn't say the pre-max level was amazing. There were points where you ran out of quests, grinding was just terrible etc. There were some really fun parts though for sure.

I look forward to another beta weekend to see how things have changed. Has anyone played a templar?

You failed to see my point. I'll give him all the credit in the world for creating a 3D graphical mud for the first time. However, my issue is that all the gameplay elements he just took and played it off like he came up with all of them. Blizzard never claims it invented WOW in a vacuum and...

Sojourn took stock CircleMUD code and revamped it. For example, Waterdeep was a re-skinned Midgaard. The Tower of Sorcery north of Waterdeep was another stock zone that was just reskinned. The real problem people have here is not that EQ took everything from SojournMUD and made it 3D. The...

I think the marketplace is ripe for a challenging persistent online gaming experience. It just needs to be fun. EQ-era mechanics are not fun in today's marketplace. For example, you can take everything that is EQ but tack on TERA's combat and you will probably have a fun game. You can take GW2's...

I played SojournMUD and it's derivatives (Duris, Toril, Darkover etc.) and when I went to play EQ is was EXACTLY the same thing except it had graphics. It's a good thing it was copied because it made a new experience. But it was copied 100%, there wasn't even any iteration on gameplay.

TERA was a really shitty game but the only reason people played it was because the combat was incredibly fun. That system alone carried the game.

Tera has very tight bands of attack for a lot of the abilities, and not everything is mutli-target.

From what I see item quality gives full factors of strength over basic items. Significantly more than a rune page.

Three posts in a row. Is there a button I'm missing in options that allows me to self cast spells?

I really like this game's mechanics of the map. The heroes are really boring though, especially for a studio that already has a fleshed out MOBA. My problem is with these crafted items and shit. I just don't know how they are going to curb that with match making because you have to combine a...

I'm sorry, but I went up against players with full rune pages when I was leveling up in LOL (I was playing with Gold players at the time) and this was nothing like that. Runes give you a small amount of extra power in the first few levels of a game, but not that much of an advantage. This guy...

What other "conal action RPGs" are you talking about that have had PVP?

I just went up against a Moxie that had some legendary item and just got wrecked. I have no idea how hero balance is, but essentially it was retarded. Fuck this game with that shit.

One of my weaknesses in this game is ego and patience.

Yeah, I saw that the other day. I played a game late last night and got dumpstered on by panth because I thought I could tank him early and I was retarded.

For some reason I want to learn how to play irelia. I think I watched too many wickd vids.

EQN is probably going to be a fun game.

What an odd post.

I just found lolbuilder.net the other day. This site does the same thing as probuilds but takes all challengers and all high diamond players and mashes their builds together. It's really interesting. I love trends/stats though.

Did you get a beta key? Gonna hit this up tonight with Mike tonight I think.

I know Tuco is planning on starting a family soon. Just a heads up Tuco: Welcome to CasualLand! Get your poopsock in while you can!

50 is a number I would of guessed. Cool.

They seem to have only 14 heroes right now, what do they plan on launching with and how does that number compare to other games?

Hey Tuco, how is PRX handling PVP vs. PVE? In GW2 you could completely ignore the PVE stuff and level up just fine in WvWvW. I believe in ESO you'll need to do PVE to get skill unlocks, gear and levels?

I love the idea of the system, it seems really awesome. I'm just skeptical of how they pay to win system comes into play. I don't know anything about the system yet, so I won't get rustled about it.

I just assume that customization will lead to some OP situations that happen whenever mathnerds get their teeth into the theorycrafting stuff. Then that OPness will lead to people needing to buy gems over and over to maintain their item. Especially those legendary items. Maybe you're right...

Let me know if I got this right. In this game you can use components to craft items or make items more powerful, but they only last for 2 weeks, but you can buy gems to make them last longer? Is that the money scheme in this game? Is it essentially going to be a Pay2Win system where you just...

Watching a stream right now, and the UI looks really bad. Everything is so big, lots of wasted space on frilly borders. Do I really need a giant keyboard key next to my skill with lines under it? Just copy DOTA2/LOL UI and not the LOL UI from 4 years ago.

I'm looking forward to trying this tonight (got my key yesterday). Does anyone have a secret potion of "put your 10 month old daughter to sleep"? I'm happy to see it's getting positive reviews.

This game is pretty good, but I really hated the itemization (I have like an hour or two in the game on the hardest difficulty). It was too much equipping stat sticks. Might get better down the road I guess.

That's a pretty good scheme, because you can get something like that up and running really cheap that can only keep 10-20 people online at the same time.

I would think offering it for $20 would be a better price point. Start a new character and toss in $20 to get to 90. $60 seems prohibitive.

The only time a (proper) thread was moved was HEX from this forum to the Other Games forum where it properly belongs.

Let's be really honest, I have no game development experience. After seeing this thread, I played around with some free tools. Except for the concept art work that was done 2 years ago for another project, I could of produced everything you've read and seen in the last month in a single weekend.

Primarily this. Also, these simple screenshots are essentially wank. They are not impressive and essentially should not even be part of updates because of how stupid easy that stuff is.

Action Combat is a thing. As in, there are key elements that conjure up when you say "Action Combat". WOW and EQ combat are in the same family for the most part. Autoattacks, tab target and completely reliant on dice checks and math to do damage with a few exceptions. Action Combat is...

Better word would be increased "tempo".

No it's really not. Action combat means, at a basic point, that you could miss if your aim sucks.
