Lot of people who never understood the SK, and never saw a good SK player work their magic, are speaking out of their asses here. Take the win and accept your new generic game the way you like it. But don't for once think that you have any clue what you are talking about.

That's fine. They can make any game they want. But the bait and switch doesn't work for me. I liked the idea of playing an old school SK in new areas. Playing an emu is boring. Been there and did everything in those zones already. Why the fuck would I want to go back. That's for retards...

The only reason I had any interest in this game was to play an old school SK. I''ll try the new changes during the next free play session but I'm very doubtful that I will have any interest in the class. There is nothing else about this game that I think is worth the price so probably will be...

Criminally underrated band

And there was nothing else like it at the time. Captive audience. Now there are tons of mmos to choose from. The only real question is if there are enough players in 2026 who want that throwback EQ game and are willing to support it.

If they get the gameplay loop done correctly then people will get hooked. EverCrack was a real thing there for a while. But most new mmos never quite figure out the right recipe for that. It seems like over 90 percent of new mmos fall flat. Probably why they don't make them anymore.

Original EQ models had good animations which made most of them preferable to the later model updates which had horrible animations. If M&M can improve the animations of their low poly characters that will go a long way towards improving the game. I'm not much of a WoW fan but their low poly...

Lol, after being wrong for all these years the desperation of the Bradmads is just sad and pathetic now.

Many of the people that use those hacks probably feel they have to because "everyone else is doing it". It's the go to excuse for the type of person who rationalizes their bad behavior. Of course, some people just hack because that's what they do. Unfortunately, many games are so hacked that it...

A lot of energy for a mode that over 95 percent of the people playing this game will never try. I like pvp, but not in a game that isn't specifically designed for it. Having said that, I also don't like instancing. Yes, that means some people may be upset when they lose a mob.

Bah, just saw that the Troll race may not be available in EA. Bummer. Was counting on being a Troll SK. Played a goblin SK over the weekend. That was kind of fun. Guess I'm going to be green and mean now.

So played over the weekend, mostly a SK. But did try some of the new classes (not long). Probably will play this when it releases. Playing a shadowknight in a new world, was fun. And they definitely have that old school EQ vibe figured out. But what may end up killing my long term play is the...

How often to they wipe characters?

Wipe happening soon, with new systems, etc.

I really enjoyed the first Highlander film, iconic. The rest made no sense to me. Couldn't stand the show except for the Joan Jett episodes. Hercules and Xena weren't really my thing. But the few shows I saw came from the right place and were watchable. They certainly aged better than most of...

Saw them with Guns and Roses I don't remember how fucking far back. Was a good show, but Axl pulled his usual bullshit and forced us all to wait two hours after Metallic did their bit. Didn't sell my youngest for the tickets though.

Can't bring myself to care about this movie or anything after endgame. Superhero fatigue is real.

FTFY. Welcome to the human race.

Yeah, Netflix getting it would have been a disaster on so many fronts. But the amount of debt Warner Bros and HBO will have to absorb is going to crush them for years. Hope it all works out but the golden age of good content might be behind us with all of these mergers turning every creative...

Nobody gets cancelled here because of pronouns either. Does make a good story. We do love to spend other people's money on stupid shit though. Name me one government on the west coast that isn't billions of dollars in debt because of the virtue signaling progressive idiots that keep getting...

It's pretty hard to beat Cali's level of regressive stupidity. I live here and still can't believe how out of touch most of the voters are. But we're also pretty good at exporting that stupidity, especially up the west coast through Oregon, Washington and all though British Columbia. Should...

I'd like to order a Ham and Bear sandwich. Make it a thing. Momentum for new Chicago Bears stadium plan moves toward Hammond, Indiana

First thing I learned to do when playing EQ was training the zone at Blackburrow on my lvl 6 rogue while running for my life. First time I did that I zoned back in and there were corpses everywhere. I laughed and kept doing it until a GM told me that wasn't cool. I thought it was part of the...

Kind of agree. But think it's mainly what happens to most streaming series in the last ten years or so. They just milk the concept for too long and it gets boring. Even House, which was one of my favorite shows, stuck around too long for me and I never watched the last couple of seasons. As...

WoW was a new type of game for most people who had never played EQ, or MuDs, etc. But WoW is way old now and the vast majority of players don't care about the old stuff. Even most of WoW's playerbase moved on to newer games and game types a long time ago. If they wanted more of the same then...

The boomer derail is taking up valuable NFL discussions and insights. I'm a boomer, proud of it. American boomers won, AT EVERYTHING. Y'all just jealous. Now let's get back to arguing about the important life changing NFL topics of the day.

Most first rounders are a bust. So, like every other sports fan, go back to the hopium pipe.

Only great moment of this year's superbowl. Even better than the patsies losing.

False equivalence. And if you know anything about the Raiders and their fans, we are never fair weather. Although, I will admit to being very tested when they hired that idiot coach from the Patriots and then gave fuckwit Brady part of the team.

Frankly the format is stale. The cost to create a mmo is so high that innovation rarely happens. And the people that play mmos have invested years of time in characters older than their kids (who are in college now) so they refuse to leave ancient geriatric fossilized games. And the younger...

Sometimes the herd mentality of this board reminds me of the karens protesting ice.

Not necessarily. All that really matters in modern business is who can afford the better lawyers and how long you can afford to pay them. Any business worth anything is usually in a lawsuit of some sort. And typically more than one. It takes a long time to get a court date for business lawsuits...

Couldn't finish the first season. Too fucking preachy and forgiving of the Soviets. Ended up fast forwarding to the moon parts and then gave up. I like much of Apple TV's other scifi though.

Same, only seen a few episodes. Great premise, kind of hilarious, looking forward to the rest. I'm new to Apple TV. Surprised how good most of their Science Fiction is. Woke casting but they don't preach for the most part.

Finally got around to trying Apple TV a couple months ago, mainly to see Foundation. Didn't try this show at first, seemed goofy. But I ended up really liking it. Something about a Republican constantly having to save idiot liberal hippies from themselves is endlessly funny to me.

It will be interesting to see what happens with this. Whoever is in charge now will want to continue developing the game. But with all the original devs gone and with the possibility that they are farming it out to cheap overseas devs, it doesn't sound promising at all. Especially if the people...

Just a guess, but it sounds like he had to give his outside investors more than 50 percent and they voted him out. Back stabbing at that level is very common, Steve Jobs was ousted from Apple by the CEO he hired away from Pepsi (or Coke?). Took years before the Apple board realized their mistake...

Starting a new IP on kickstarter, World of Furry Elves. $1000 (per month) buy in. First alpha sometime after 2099. Don't wait! Send your money NOW!

It's probably just normal layoffs for a gaming company. Most devs are not needed for the whole development cycle. Money management could be an issue to though. Right now at 7am pst mid week, Ashes has more players online than ESO and Ashes is just an alpha game. But doom and gloom is par for...

The tuck rule is calling. Fuck the refs.
