    The NSA watches you poop.

    So Snowden has applied for Asylum in the USSR. Had Obama just offered the guy a pardon right off the bat he and his laptops would be sitting happily in D.C. instead of Moscow, the NSA story would be dead and we'd all be talking about the idiocy of naming your baby North West instead. Fuckin'...

    There has to be some soloable content since it is a FTP game. I'd expect some variation on the Vanguard: 1-6 dot mobs as opposed to EQ con-mobs with grouping required for dungeons and the rougher outdoor areas.

    Bought a used copy of Winter's Tale (Mark Helprin). One of my all time favs.

    DCUO was a blast until you hit level 30. But it wasn't really an MMO. Anyway, EQN needs hotbar combat, preferably EQ-like with a limited number of selections 8-10 max. I'll agree 10 hotbars of 10 bars each gets ridiculous. Anything else means a shitty game no matter what else it has.

    No you can't. EQ the FPS is not EQ. It's a completely different game.

    Hell no. Fuck twitch/FPS combat in an MMO, especially in an Everquest MMO. Go back to the Wildstar thread. Also did you not read the StoryBricks BS - that replaces questing.

    Legends of Norrath

    Anyone playing this, these days - finally tried it and I'm actually enjoying the little scenarios. Haven't gotten heavy into deck-building yet. A bit pricey but I have unopened packs from past days playing EQ -_-

    Yes, you can't keep doing it forever without getting horribly bored. Unless things along the journey are constantly changing.

    Great. So instead of 1,000 variations of l3g0l4s we get 1,000 variations of Dr222t D0urd3n or wtf is the name of the RAS character. -_- Edit: Yes I know EQN won't allow leet speak names. Didn't want to bother inventing unimaginative names for examples.

    Assuming a decent leveling curve. You should spend weeks /played on the ground more then enough time to understand the zones. I'm talking about after hitting max level. I'm not suggesting we return to VG's or WoW's pay a dollar and ride the griffon.

    I'm dubious we'll find more than bacteria - but this is pretty reasonable. The problem is the Universe is implacably hostile to life. Mars is a perfect example. Mars is in the right place, had running water for a while but is as dead as a doorknob because the atmosphere escaped and the place...

    They've already got the physics for warp drive. They just need negative matter or negative energy or some other exotic unobtanium - you can google it. I'm sure we'll have it working in fifty years or less if we don't blow ourselves up before them/get hit by a massive solar flare/etc.

    I'm a trusting soul so I'll take you at your word that you've got a friend at SOE. I won't link to the video because I don't feel like it - but for a game to be wildly successful it must combine both old and new elements. The question in everyone's mind is this: did EQN go too far? Is it...

    Actually, this is exactly what SOE is doing wrong. We all know (if not necessarily admit) that EQN is not going to be EQ1++. Instead it will be some possibly awful combination of EQ/EVE/Minecraft/SBricks/Pizza/FreeRealms/WoW/VG and Planetside2. Folks who are hoping for EQ1++ are going to be...

    NO. No. Noooooooooooo. Stop with the bulshit. They get everybodies data and analyze the exabytes+ of data. i.e. data mining. Which is why people like the Tsaernaves were completely overlooked.

    Another Kreugen Thread Bomb "KTB" (tm). The thing is an MMO is more than the sum of its parts - so even if Creedy is describing TSW maybe the TSW system will work better in a game with Storybricks instead of Quests and +1 Vorpal Swords instead of guns. We can talk about...

    Yep. Sucks because dedicated roles promote emergent gameplay. You have to learn to master a class' abilities instead of fucking around with the FOTM skill build.
