    EQ sells xp pots and giant bags, and has for decades. Who the fuck are you racing against? Any argument that xp pots are buying power is fucking retarded or bad faith. Growth has an end point. When you reach it, you reach it. If you want to sprint there and pay extra, go for it. It doesn't...

    Everquest Legends

    In a lot of cases that may be true. That is one of the mechanics gacha games use, which is why I don't play them anymore. EQL is EQ, though. Yes, DBG has an ROI they expect from all this, so they do have to monetize, but it's also based on a game that had camps that took weeks and months to get...

    They don't change their habits, which is why they blimp up immediately afterwards. If you aren't going to be on the medication for life, it's just a temporary bandaid. There is no escaping from the science. Eat less calories. Permanently. That is the only way to get to there and stay there.

    They are small, slow, and incompetent. That is why this will never see an actual release. The incompetence starts at the top, and goes all the way down. Joppa has ADD, which is why nothing ever gets fully fixed or finished. There is no management at any level holding people accountable for...

    No. Pay to skip tedium != p2w. Honestly, if you find the in game way too tedious, that might be an indicator you might not want to play it. Tedium is 125% pure EQ, and why we all remember the epic quests. So far, I haven't heard anything that would make me not have fun, but the proof is going to...

    Everquest Legends

    No, but it makes it unique. Tedious and p2w are subjective terms, so whatever you are meaning by that probably should be clarified. The only thing I have heard about is xp pots, which... not p2w in my opinion. There is no benefit other than saving a little bit of time getting to cap or farming aas.

    I did pay for bags in THJ. No ragerts. Will happily pay for bags in EQL if that's on the menu. The general sentiment here means fuck all, because noone here has played EQL yet. I am ignoring the hype trains and doomers alike until I get a chance to try it out. I would like to get into beta to...

    Take the wife out for a camping trip then. Or if that's not her thing talk to your family. Dad, uncles, cousins, nephews, etc. Find someone who also enjoys that kind of stuff and just make a plan to spend a weekend doing just that.

    Everquest Legends

    They are making a game. Until it is released it won't be better or worse than itself. You can compare it to other games, but that is irrelevant. If they want to offer $$$ unlock options, that's fine. As long as the in game method works, that has nothing to do with me. Long ass camps for rare...

    The emu community better hope EQL succeeds too, because they are in the crosshairs whether it succeeds or not. Its success is the only way DBG is going to allow them to continue. They only care about $$$, and letting people run free servers doesn't put any in their pockets, and ostensibly draws...

    Keeping it separate from all access is fucking retarded, but it is probably to test the waters and to specifically monitor how much EQL brings in.

    It was also unlicensed and as such illegal. That's why it is gone, and this is being attempted. It might suck giant floppy donkey dong. It might be better than THJ (unlikely, but non 0% chance). If they want to charge a sub it better fucking well be better than TLPs.

    I would imagine with a few bits of +10 gear it will be trivial for most classes. My first alias/persona will be a brdcuck, even if I only get to have one pet. The pet AAs and slow from BST will be additive power boosts for MAG pet no matter what. So I have to clear to isle 7 PoSky no matter what...

    Tokyo, Japan

    There are regional foods in every state in Japan. If you want to do 2-3 weeks just join a tour group and see the whole country. There are probably specific foodie tour groups that do just that. If you are going to do 1 week just focus on Tokyo. It is fucking huge, and one of the major culinary...

    It was massively easy on THJ. But they did take DTs out of all zones. Pop your DZ and just mow everything down. Quest bits dropped like candy. There is still a good zone write up out there for some reason.

    I'm sure Tom Holland will be sucking Zendaya's feminine penis somewhere in this abortion of a movie. Nolan specifically chose a feminist reimagining of the original story as his starting point. It's just mustard holes and DEI all the way down from there.

    It's also OK to like enough to play once in a while then unsub until they release a fun update/xpac. That's how the TLP model works. It's how Diablo and WOW and FFXIV work. If EQL sticks the landing and is fun enough to play, it will be fun enough to put in whatever rotation you have. Play until...

    Time will tell. Min/maxxing in THJ was a thing, but in the end most folks could do everything regardless of build. Some builds took longer, sometimes a lot longer, to get there, but everyone could get there. EQL is going to have personas, so if one build is lagging, you can just hop onto a...

    That's fine. I will still be able to clear Fear, which means I will be able to get anything I want from the zone. Solo remains a viable option for everything, which is the important thing for a game trying to suck in as many THJ whales as they can.

    If they have proper instancing this is a moot issue. It's just a difference in time to end game, not access to it. Aliases are just whatever they are doing with personas. That is a perfectly cromulent way to alleviate any need for alts on the same account. You can have up to 15 on live, so one...

    It's just hard to eat any carbs while maintaining correct calorie intake. On the plus side, it's the second easiest thing behind sugar to cut out. Replace them with vegetables or protein and you will get a lot more food for the same or less calories.
