    Yep. Part of it is also what kind of neighborhood you want to live in. I've currently got young kids and chose to live in a neighborhood where houses are packed together with families who also have young kids. The closer everyone is to each other the more disruptive commonly banned situations...

    The certainty of organized and isolated backups is boring. The best backups are the accidental ones created out of laziness. Nuking the database is way more exciting when you only dig yourself out by pulling out that old dev box you've been meaning to scrap that happens to have a new enough...

    Something I think about sometimes is that it's very possible the technical people that smugly refuse to use AI today will grudgingly use it in the future and be more generally productive than people who signed up to pioneer AI slop.

    Not to derail this thread with HOA stuff, but this is the right attitude to take if you don't want to be governed by HOAs. Too many people choose to live in a clean and tidy dense suburban neighborhood that's governed by an HOA but then balk at the specific rules they don't like. If you don't...

    That's interesting. I don't know how common it is but in my small city you don't need a permit to cut down a tree on your own property.

    If I saw that video a few years ago I wouldn't think it was fake (Like, paid actors) or CGI. Even now the biggest problem is oddly the voice which has the 2026 era AI synthesized voice, which has a pretty huge industry trying to improve while having a bajillion hours of highly labeled data to...

    Not directly related to your conversation but the idea I'd love to see in a TLP (or any game really) is a system where the longer you keep mobs dead in an area the harder and more rewarding it gets. In EQ just jacking up the spawn rates by 25% everytime a mob is killed with X minutes of being...

    So you got banned from Discord for sperging out and are here raging out at randos about it. You're welcome here, brother, just don't say stupid, ignorant shit.

    You should read and think more and post less. Autistically screaming at Burren thinking he wants autoskills and microtransactions is ignorant.

    Wow, complete heal has always been an awkward spell by design. Changing it to be some kind of instant-cast delayed heal is crazy, especially if other healers aren't getting huge boosts then yeah, early EQ cleric is a no brainer.

    The negativity is primarily because EQL appears to be shaping up to be a worse version of an emulated server that DBG sued to close. In addition to questionable decisions that sacrifice fun, it appears to be moving toward a more grindy game in preparation for selling "Quality of Life" options to...

    That's kinda how I feel about non-boxing EQ before around GoD. Just about every class is running at 10APM, lol.

    Everquest Legends

    The funny thing about this is that EQ is one of the very few group-centric games. Other than online-focused coop games like extraction shooters or PvP games, there are very few games out there, let alone RPGs, where you are almost always benefitting from being in a group and can't make...

    I doubt anyone in San Diego, CA is taking kickbacks from botters. It's much more likely that EG7 / DBG just pays out bottom 3% wages in the area because they are milking the IP and they can get enough mediocre but interested devs to keep the game afloat. Meanwhile they likely pay slave wage CM...

    Hmm, not sure if I want to dump 120 pulls in to get a selector. I'm a little tired of having all the pull currency but can imagine being in a drought later. I can't tell if Gilberta's P1 is +20% radius or area, I heard it was bugged.

    New umbral monument is fun. I still have so much currency, i think 250 pulls worth.

    lol @ it being too much for the database to have alts. It's bullshit of course, but I wouldn't spend any effort or $ on a character if its data was managed by someone who believed that excuse. I'd sooner spend a weekend building a tower out of dominoes and ask a 3 year old over to keep an eye on...

    Nah it's fine. This janky ass, ambitious confusing zone is EverQuest. It's really not that bad if you can solo it or faceroll it in a group.

    Requiring PoSky for respecs seems obnoxious, but you guys worrying about PoSky being some huge slog like it's the year 2000 seems pre-mature. Everything about EQL makes it sound like it'll be trivial for anyone who belongs to this forum to steamroll the content.

    I last had fun on EQ when I played a week ago and got my new 6box team of free heroic characters up to level 125 in live. If a game isn't fun, don't play it. There's so many games out there.

    Assuming their policy is anti boxing in general I applaud this action and have been curious what a TLP with an explicit no boxing policy with limited feature would look like. I also wouldn't mind seeing /target, /assist and the extended target window being axed too. A huge risk, of course, is...

    I'll be surprised if they have genuinely difficult 8 man raid content. The EQ playerbase is full of weak potatoes.
