Ok so I was curious as to what other moronic shit you came up with and wow there are some real pearls in there.
You're the idiot who returned to the home city just to go LFG after a raid, arent you?
Um not I played a level 1 character, alone, in a starter zone.
Here's a hint: Players are in the zones worth playing. First, there are hotzones. Is Gfay a hotzone? No, then shut the fuck up it's not worth being there.
Here's a hint, it's a starting zone for like half the races in the game, it also has the best feel and the best music of pretty much any zone in EQ ever, and it's empty, that's not good.
Second, it's basically a 2 day experience from level 1 until level 70 if you get just a little help from a friendly person.
Here's a hint, that's not EQ, that's some piece of shit noob game, no wonder you love it.
The game where you spend any time at all in any zone nowdays is called the ENDGAME,
Here's a hint, that's how you kill a game. You make the earlier levels shit for new people, you get no new people, here's a hint, the old people eventually quit one by one and you end up with a dead game.
Therefore, your bullshit rationalizion of 1 out of 1500 zones was empty is pathetic, idiotic, and I'm ashamed I have to point it out for others to see the light.
I already said, it wasn't one zone, it was the whole continent. And I didn't say the whole game is empty either. That's your 'bullshit' interpretation of it. Here's a hint, stop being a crying little fanboy bitch.
2. Just because you have to work at being good at the game does not invalidate the quality of the game.
Here's a hint, if you can get 70 levels in a day or whatever, it's hardly working for something.
If you want to suck but still feel uber, theres a game called World of Warcraft waiting for you.
WoW/EQ what's the difference?
You have to bust your ass to level 100, grind out about 7,000 AA, and THEN, possibly, you might consider yourself a good casual gamer.
Lol.
A modern raider has done all that, and farmed clickies, augs, and other tools that are still required to be good at your class. If you want shit handed to you for no effort so you can remain a fucktard, see above for suggestions.
Who said I wanted shit handed to me? Is that just your go-to defence of anything? I played EQ when stuff really WAS hard to achieve, you know... back when the game was new and challenging and interesting, before you were born.
3. You talked to a couple retards who think the game is easy. GG.
Far from retards, they are the top guild and they were really nice people, experienced with MMO's, and about a 1000 times better a specimen of a human than you will ever be in your piece of shit lifetime.
The game is easier in some respects.
Duh
The death penalty is basically non existant now.
Duuhhh
Mercs make finding groups optional,
Duhhhhdgasdghkasl;lkw[
especially if you can box an account (or 4). That is how the game has evolved.
Here's a hint, that's called devolution not evolution.
4. The graphics engine is definately older than modern games.
Duh
But guess what.....nobody who loves the game and continues to love the game gives a shit about your expectations.
Duh
The game is great to play, especially on older systems,
Duh. You only play it because you are poor don't you? I lol at you and your 1ghz celeron.
and people love how you can box 4 characters and not have to upgrade your system to uber status.
My iphone is laughing at your PC too.
And if I have to educate you on the differences between Vanguard and EQ, you really do need to stfu.
I know both games perfectly well.
5. If you don't care about making an effort to make new friends, nobody will care to make friends with you. did you honestly expect to find 6 people you used to know and go "omg it's Qwerty, lets level him up so he can play with us!"
Like I said, I expected nothing, I just poked my head in to the game for about half an hour to see what it's like these days. I didn't like it, and the 100 or so people I used to play with, not a single one of them were online. I'm sure I could make plenty of new friends, join a new guild, get to level 70 in a day and become an uber raid loser like the rest of you, I just don't want to, and seeing the replies in this thread just makes me even more convinced.
Most likely anyone who knew you then will still hate you now for your obvious incompetant rambling.
No u, you can't even spell incompetent you pathetic little shit stain.
6. Yes, theres more to learn. Nothing that a few weeks of actual learning will gain you. And you'll make mistakes and find out how truly great the game has become.
Maybe, maybe not. I doubt it.
But wait, no you're not willing to do that. Darn it!
Yuppers.
In short, the game is still as good as it used to be.
That's just like, your opinion, man. And it's a pretty fucking mindblowingly retarded one.
If anything changes, it's you.
??
If you and your lifestyle can't handle the EQ way, go to WoW or some other game that satisfies.
I hadn't thought of that. Thanks, I miss this kind of advice, I used to get it a lot in WoW from other 8 year olds.
But don't pretend to put 5 minutes into it and expect to spoil this thread with bullshit.
Ehh my one post while admittedly showing a lack of any real effort to 'get back in to the game' was far more easily avoidable than all your retarded replies.
