    Where are all the MMORPG games? lol

    Lord of the Rings Online is perfect for "drop in and drop out with out issues" and actually accomplish stuff. I'm honestly surprised more people haven't added Lotro as their long term "other" game they play because it is so solo-friendly, story-based, and allows you to make actual achievements...

    Its not going to be a popular opinion, but I'm just going to say it. I completely think that the epic quests should have been 100% doable via LONG soloable/groupable content with raids offering a SHORT CUT to completion rather than being the only way to complete them. The fact that the epics...

    This is exactly where my brother and I are right now. We played up our mains (monk and shaman), got our tower gear, and went and played personas. We're honestly having more fun doing that on this server than we had doing the raid-raid-raid we did on previous servers.

    When I mained a wizard, this always struck me as just stupid because I was able to keep non-stop damage rolling on my wizard with rain spells. It was way more mana efficient than tossing mega nukes and sitting on my ass while I regen. The only problem was getting in to groups where the...

    Still having a great time playing through the story lines in this game. My champion is level 106 and in Mordor now. I just got done doing the battle at the black gate which was pretty cool. If anybody wants to check it out, hit me up on the Gladden server. It's a *very* soloable game with...

    To Edaw's point, a lot of people (myself included) really enjoy the cooperation aspect of doing old world content with strangers that all work together. Not everybody is a "fuck you I got mine before you got yours bitch" kind of person. Sure. Some are. Most aren't.

    My brother and I have decided to go with our Shaman and Monk as our mains because we missed the initial leveling on the server and we suck at finding groups together. So, we decided to go with classes that we both like and can pretty much create the groups rather than look for them. That...

    I've gotten to the point where I just feel like every mobile game made today is nothing more than a money grab.

    After experiencing ST loot on Mischief, it makes me laugh that anybody considers ST 1.0 gear a watermark for leet skills. Every monk including alts will have a SOD on this server, and just for the record, I think it's fucking great. It was a blast on Mischief. Waking the Sleeper was a fun...

    I think this server is going to have an accelerated burn out rate between each expansion due to the tower gear at least for a couple expansions. People just aren't going to see a reason to raid non stop once they have downed everything for the expansion when a lot of the gear is inferior to...

    This was exactly how I saw Velious when I ran FB on Aradune. Killing AoW was by far the pinnacle for my guild in that era. It was the "we did it" moment. Now that being said, I had an emotional breakdown (due to a lot of things going on outside of the game at the time) and killed the guild...

    I like soloing a lot because it allows me to push the limits on what I can and can't do. It's exciting to live through an encounter that you probably shouldn't have. Sadly, the experience gain from soloing is just horrible. If it wasn't for the super low exp gain from soloing, I probably...

    People squirelled them away on Mischief thinking they would be worth money after they stopped dropping.

    The real tragedy here is that by allowing these items to be used out of era, they have effectively removed some inventory slots from being part of the game meta for the first handful of expansions of the server. There's only a few things that EverQuest progression is based on... Levels, Gear...

    Teek is going to probably be the easiest TLP server yet considering the new persona system being added, anniversary tower gear, free trade, and random loot. On top of that, it is quite literally the most populated server in TLP history at this point. I'm kind of hoping that even though the...

    Seems silly that you can have FT4 in Ruins of Kunark. I'm probably remembering wrong, but isn't one of the only FT items in Ruins of Kunark the wizard epic that gives a whole whopping 1 mana regen?

    I think really it boils down to each individual. Not everyone is going to like every story. WoW's stories just didn't interest me enough. For you, it obviously was more enjoyable.

    Where are all the MMORPG games? lol

    I think the larger issue with modern MMORPGs is that the quest formula is just fucking boring. The WoW quest model took over the industry, and for a while, it was acceptable if not down right enjoyable. Overtime, we started realizing that the quest system really was just a "do X and come back"...
