seems like it's not nodes but that one depth doesn't give something every time you dig. They show big blue crystals sprouting up at one depth and you probably need to be mining the actual crystal to get the resource you want vs just more mud that youve already farmed.
Watching the announcements for the new EQ1 content reminded me how much of a mess that game's lore was. It's hard to argue that it often wasn't just thought up on the fly, which made it more and more ridiculous and convoluted as time went on. It may remove some of the things that made EQ EQ, but I'm perfectly fine with that if it means some of the more ridiculous parts of EQ's lore are retconned out - particularly much of the stuff that came after Velious.
It could also potentially be the Temple of Cazic-Thule. Since they are rebooting the lore, it's possible that it wasn't the lizardmen on Kunark that became the Iksar, but those that were on Antonica. Or, of course, it could just be a completely new area in the game. Perhaps some Iksar fled from their slavemasters on Kunark and established a town on Antonica.
Have you seen these guys? They're all ancient cyclops. If anything, they need to hire more young people.
Because who is going to enjoy their piece of art being turned into a piece of shit once they decide to log off an go to bed?
Well, I can see how it could be used. Imagine going into a multi-level dungeon where you have to avoid using floor slamming abilities, because you might cave your level in and fall into a massive amount of monsters. Think Sebilis, but instead of traps, you have weak floors which can be broken if you're not careful.
exploits. everything would be destroyed to the last strata. inconsistent narrative. etcetc
Been open since after the announcement speech, available from the website homepage.
I used to think this until every game that has come out since WoW really has not been that much better than SOE offerings. They have also turned around several of their games for the better. Thats no excuse for how they launched but you can also say that about most MMO's so really they are no better or worse than anyone else at this point.
I don't see any conflicts so far.
Destroying stuff is always going to be fun, but more than that, it'll serve to make your attacks feel a lot more powerful. Your spell will seem to have more of an impact if it leaves a crater in the ground rather than just being a bunch of sparkly lights.
Speaking of, was anyone else annoyed that they constantly pronounced "Combine" like a combine harvester rather than the word for "to unite?" I always assumed it was the latter, because it was an empire whose main feature was that it included most of the races on Norrath. Yet, dev after dev (even in the EQ and EQ2 presentations) pronounced it like they decided to name themselves after a piece of farm equipment.
