    Soul (2020)

    It was excellent. My wife and I are both educators so it hit us in the feels. Would have loved to have taken the kids to the theatre for this but we still loved the experience with family on Christmas. I didn't feel like one of the Pixar movies that's going to have those characters that are...

    New World

    That was my issue when I went through a couple of phases of beta. Unless they're just holding the endgame close to the chest or maybe it's being heavily internally tested but regardless, there is just not a clear endgame to appease the majority of the MMO community. At least, not that I...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Can we just attempt to fight Veeshan but instead she destroys all of Norrath so it can be reborn? Think somewhat of a Fortnite event in how they handle their changes in seasons/maps. Veeshan shows up, all of Norrath attempts to take a stand, Zeb or someone zaps us somewhere else in time...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Hit 60 this morning and wrapped up Aerdenwald right about when I hit so I’m assuming I’m more than half way through the campaign. I’ve ran two dungeons thus far as well. Overall, I’m enjoying the experience. Anything was better than seeing one more tentacle or horrific vision. if you’re...

    Everquest Mysteries

    I can't tell you how disappointed I have been that EQ2 never really got the attention it needed to salvage itself. It was really a much better game than people gave it credit, especially there about 2-3 years after release (Hartsman years). They should have dropped everything and addressed...

    Ashes of Creation

    For whatever reason I thought they were much further along. I'm hoping this turns out to be the game that we need it to be. The MMO market just seems incredibly dry and as much as want to give games like WoW and FFXIV the credit they're due, I feel like they're on autopilot. FFXIV seems to be...

    So I'm assuming Pre-Patch will hit end of a September then?

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I don't think will ever face the trauma looking into the face of death EQ gave people ever again. I don't like to die in any MMO just out of inconvenience or how it may play a role in the failure of a raid pull...things like that but I was legitimately scared to die in EQ. I didn't want to...

    Lost Ark Online

    Honestly, in my opinion, no. I don't see anything really out there with any interest outside of Ashes of Creation (maybe) and if you want to consider Next Gen Consoles but I don't really consider them in the same market. Diablo 4 possibly.... but who knows?

    This is where I'm supposed to say Pantheon right?

    Lost Ark Online

    I'm afraid this game is going to miss it's chance. If it could have made it to US 2019/2020, it would have done really well. I still think its an incredible game but the window will probably shrink in terms of how much any will care if it continues to delay its release. They may not even care...

    This looks like Star Wars Galaxies to me.... lol

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    True but at least FFXIV has a little flair to it. I'm beginning to see images of purple tentacles and eyeballs in my sleep. I feel like WoW really got into this theming and went overboard with it. I've been literally stuck in a nightmare for months and I can't take it much longer ... lol

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    So far, I think they have done a good job with this trial. I had forgotten just how beautiful the looks and sounds. I love the FF classes as well. I'll probably start doing a little instancing tomorrow and see how that goes. It's just been so long, I can't remember how it was when I played...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I always find it interesting that when you read or watch the "top" or "favorite" character, moments, and/or games of Final Fantasy you typically see FF2/3 (FF4/6) at the top of most lists yet the modern console FF's are the furthest thing from them in terms of story and character. I always...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I always want to jump in time to time but always afraid it's simply too overwhelming. It's probably where we are so invested in our guild calendar on WoW and I really don't have much left for another MMO but FF XIV is a beautiful game and the story is a lot of fun. I'm a big FF person and miss...

    New World

    Agreed... when I played it, I felt some early game polish but it slowly dwindled and I could not see any sign of anything that would keep players long-term. It's not bad but during the 2-3 phases I played, I couldn't see many people staying much longer than 30 days. I haven't kept up with it...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    So incredibly sad to hear about Hutch. I can't tell you how much time I spent in SolA/SolB and of course Neriak. I think it's a lost art and we are seeing a lot of this in schools. You don't have kids writing/creating adventures, looking out in windows and imaging worlds, and the pursuit of...

    Everquest TLP - Aradune and Rizlona Servers (Now with real customer service)

    I really enjoyed Agnarr and PoP is by far my favorite time in EQ. I honestly enjoyed getting the taste of Classic, then Kunark, etc. but that experience has somewhat passed and I'm not sure why they would do that again. In my opinion, they should have entertained possibly doing periodic wipes...

    I read this today.... Dumbest thing I've seen come to an EQ game. They have completely lost touch.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    I believe you're right and if I was in their shoes, I would really try a little harder to get a "presence" out there. It never really felt like it existed in the first place but at least Brad was a face and a decent cheerleader to some extent. He could almost have you cheering for him no...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    This is probably not the right attitude to have but knowing Brad isn't a part of this and will not be around to pop in the server when this opens to the public one day and see all of this come together just completely took my interest out of this game. The only reason I had any hope was just...

    Everquest - Live Servers

    Holly was always really approachable and I thought fairly honest. It's just difficult to tell how much is the lack of vision/talent of the people or mismanagement/lack of resources of Daybreak.... maybe its both. I stopped keeping up with most of these folks but I still wish someone would get...

    Warhammer Online RIP

    I loved this game but when people were just objective hopping, there was no real incentive to play. People wouldn't even care to defend and would simply just go to another keep and take it. Have they addressed that portion of the game or is it simply just a restored version of WAR? I...

    Cats (2019)

    I never cared much for Cats on Broadway but it's still a pretty popular and widely recognized musical and I have no clue how at any point that they looked at this and thought they were doing something right. From the first preview I couldn't understand what they were thinking. Shame so many...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I think so but I think there was more than one little slights aimed at the film. Maybe not a Johnson personally but I had counted at least 5-6 as I went through the movie.

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    You have to remember TFA was a handoff movie. The writers/directors agreed to one movie so they intentionally played it safe and left everything completely open for the next team to take it wherever it was intended to go. In my opinion that's an incredibly ignorant way to handle a franchise...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Just got back and really enjoyed it. I'll echo a lot of others and say that Star Wars fans are really going to enjoy this for the most part. What I found funny is that JJ/writers essentially did in the first 15 minutes what Rian Johnson couldn't do in an entire movie. So once you got that...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    In their defense, and maybe even my own, I don't think people want to walk away without some hope that Star Wars will go back in the right direction. It seems only natural after TLJ that after experiencing Galaxy's Edge, The Mandalorian, confirmation of Obi-wan series, the involvement of Kevin...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    Your spoiler tag info is a good example to of what my friend and who he went with spoke about. I can't tell you how many moments he spoke about that referred to an EU books, video game, and other Star Wars materials. I don't know who knew all of this stuff but it sounds like a lot of deep...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'm speaking after him because I asked the same questions. For folks wanting some fan service from past Jedi's.. you got it. Snoke answers..... You got it (the answer was forced and not what we wanted thanks to Rian Johnson but you got one nevertheless) Several nods to the EU, video games...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I'm going to see it in a few hours but a friend of mine went to a special showing yesterday and gave it pretty decent reviews. His words were essentially, if you are a big canon person who also played all the video games and kinda got into all the different stories over the years, you get a...

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    I always felt Poe was a good swap for the future. If Rey = Luke then you take Han/Leia and merge it into the Poe character (cool guy with leadership qualities and loyal). I've heard Oscar Isaac does a great job in the movie. Actually folks on both sides have seemingly voiced a lot of praise...

    On a brighter note, the Rise of the Resistance ride at Galaxy's Edge has received very high marks. lol

    Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

    So I finally sat down and watched Charlie's (Emergency Awesome) Non-spoiler review and it makes me feel a little better. I've always felt he was honest even if I didn't fully agree with him. It appears that JJ "tried" to retcon a lot of things (even if it subtle) and make up for a lot of lost...
