I doubt I’ll give them that kind of money per month. I’m all for supporting peoples work but to me, this is a $4.99 - $6.99 at best type of thing. You include this in All Access to pump up your sub numbers or give it an “add on” level price. Again, not minimizing their work or the value, I...

So will this subscription go through EQ/DB? Honestly, I think they should just consider this a licensing fee and have any emu that gets "sanctioned" or whatever go through Daybreaks stuff and include access in their Station Pass. I don't really want to give them any money but if I"m Daybreak...

I hope it works out. This is all kind of out of order and messed up but what hasn’t been in the MMO world since 1999. I kind of hate it for Aporia and their team because I feel like this is their thing. I have nothing against Secrets and wish him the best with this project. Always been...

This is the stream they're referring to.... very vague... I wouldn't consider it "clarifying"

I think there will be quite a bit of the THJ community that will play just out of spite. Now, does it last more than a month.. maybe not but it may be enough to make them a little money. I think there's enough spite and curiosity to make it worth their while... just not long term.

I think there was a moment that a lot of folks said that... We are really not sure whey they did not or at least attempted to create something out of the box but then I think most remembered who they were dealing with. I hope this works out for their team. The more I have thought about a...

What is unfortunate for them is I don't think Shawn or probably any of their staff are necessarily use to being in these types of administrative situations. Most of these guys have been on teams or worked as designers and they may have experienced management address these situations but its...

That's really my big thing.... I'm curious how much of their audience really just liked revisiting Norrath in this way and how much of this playstyle of was realized and determined to be enjoyable enough to make the world irrelevant. Honestly, after going through a few places multiple times...

From those who brought you THJ supposedly....

Description Hollowed Oath is a heroic fantasy MMORPG where players take the role of an Oathsworn; a multiclass adventurer who resisted corruption from the Hollow by taking the Oath and binding themselves to the fate of the world known as Orrathis. Players explore a hauntingly beautiful world...

I fear that this will appeal to a very niche market but I could be wrong. I fall within that market. While I enjoy the end game, I'm not in any rush to get there. Just for the sake of comparison, I really enjoy being in Befallen, Unrest, Lower Guk, Seb, etc. I don't mind spending a few weeks...

I believe MMO's will only be fun like we remember it, is if people are willing to discover and prioritize the experience over consumption. I don't think that's the world we live in now. It's all about rushing to the endgame which has been the progression of the MMO state. Its hard to want to...

What was that supposed to do for me? That is definitely a little lacking. Unfortunate.... MnM feels more like EQ than EQ does. :(

Excited we get an open test March 27th. Would still love to see a Beta Key come through but nevertheless.... glad folks seem to be having a good experience thus far for those I've spoken to anyway.

Didn't several of the development team, some of the core developers, come out in interviews and/or social media posts? If so, did they come out for either side or are they just attempting to defend themselves? Curious how many people actually had a thought of what was going on?

Fully expect you lucky jerks that got codes to keep us posted! Hopefully to become a lucky jerk next week.... :)

Yikes...

Not that it really matters to me but am I understanding it correctly that some body of investors or board is going to attempt to continue the development of the game? If so, I would consider selling it to someone. I'm not sure how close they are to delivering anything worthwhile but it's...

I think you can go back and forth on these arguments all day and there are probably plenty of examples over the last couple of decades both for and against it. However, I think it ultimately comes down the big picture of the game. Either all the variables work in harmony to create a game that...

If I remember correctly, the Sierra games in the 90's were a husband and wife team. I loved those games. I played the crap out of Quest for Glory 2. I had to hear that about his wife. Hope the game does well.

I think I've asked this before but wasn't sure... have they said much in regard to their end game? With their heavy EQ influence I wasn't sure what direction they would lean.... raid mob in the bottom of a exp dungeon (Sol B, Seb, etc.) or a raid zone (PoF, PoH, etc.) I actually hope they go...

I think that's an easy fix but I also think you can have a little of both. Again, I believe it comes down to what they want to be as a game and if people are going play, there are some things people just have to accept. You can have world bosses, open world spawns, etc but also have instanced...

That's where I worry about this being a subscription based game. I think they need another model or make the sub fairly inexpensive to were people don't care to keep it active. Given their small team and how people consume MMO's one of two things must happen. One, people have to understand...

Stress Test Incoming!! Friday the 13th!

I haven't logged in probably since about 3-4 months after release but a friend of mine went back recently and said they have made some pretty huge strides in the game. Said it reminds him more of D3 than it used to but still not perfect. If nothing else, said it was more fun, simpler, and felt...

Guys.. we need Pantheon to happen… How else will we enjoy MnM in peace?

Could Ashes’ demise really turn it around for Pantheon? lol

EQ2 Naggy server had the best PvP for a while. They kept tinkering, balancing, and listening to whiners and messed it up. It’s still some of my favorite MMO memories.

Bill Trost was on this team correct? He's on their studios website but wasn't sure if that was up to date or not. I haven't heard anything out of him in a bit. Jeff Butler was hanging around THJ and was promoting a game he is working on. Maybe they'll stay away from MnM.... I need it to make...

So reading a lot of comments and not playing in a lot of group situations, I’m assuming they’re attempting to bring back the art of pulling? I’m guessing a core group trinity is in MnM as a foundation for maximizing group success? I’m pretty excited if that’s the case. I played a tank in...

I'm not sure what Runescape did differently than EQ over 25 years but have to give them props. I've never been a Runescape person but just out of curiosity, I checked out this video because it spoke about a Roadmap so I watched it. They seem to be willing to address mistakes, make the right...

Just to go back to the "look and feel" of the world or style... I think their trailer gives a good overview of a lot of landscapes and intentional nods to older MMO's such as EQ.

Its no offense to the boxers out there... my old man boxes two to three on EQ to this day but I hope people will give the community a chance to develop before they just roll up a bot group and chip away at the social aspect of the game. That was the best piece of early EQ in my opinion and...

Have they revealed or tested any of the end game? I can’t remember but did EQ show any of Naggy or Vox in their testing? Only thing I remember in the last phase was some kind of GM event but that’s it. We didn’t really have a lot of developed, raiding guilds at that point I guess…

If the game does not connect with your playerbase... it doesn't matter. There are plenty of incredibly stunning looking games that has not made it. Its not that the graphics don't matter it just has to be a part of the connection. Retro style games have proven that time and time again. If...

I think the charm of the graphics will come down to the connection the game makes with the playerbase. Being a good game covers a multitude of sins. They're not awful by any means and I believe they're trying to create a certain appearance and artistic direction that would feel like a game...

You bring up a great point and a core memory for me… I remember heading to upper guk early in my EQ days and I ran into two guys just chilling outside waiting on to fill their group for Lower Guk. They looked unreal and I was really hooked from that point. I wanted to look like them and go to...
