Not edgy just pathetic.

Rolien is the guy who quit EverQuest but still orbits it like a fly on a pile of shit. He swears the game is dead, yet he’s in every thread, every day, foaming at the mouth about how much he hates it. That’s not conviction, that’s mental illness. He’s the digital equivalent of the ex-boyfriend who drives past your house every night just to see if your lights are on. Without EverQuest he’s just another nobody screaming into the void, so he clings to it like it’s the only thing that gives his life meaning. It’s not the game that’s pathetic here. It’s Rolien.

Take a clue from Frozen and "Let it go"
Okay

I enjoyed it for a while, but with no good guild options for my play time and the level 50 cap I eventually lost interest and dusted off my Teek characters and am happy there.

All they had to do was not limit people to below 55 for months and it could have been successful. 55 Would have provided enough extra challenge without making it tedious and encouraging bind rushing.

The hotzones are a great idea but could have been implemented a bit better, too many repeats or useless zones getting bonuses.

Character based lockouts are great and should probably be the norm going forward.

Another swing and a miss from Daybreak.

2015 Daybreak had taken over Everquest. That's 10 years ago, in that 10 years what has given you hope that Everquest will get better?
Phinny, VP and VT Key changes, Selo, Mischief, Vaniki. DoN and Omens combined. LoY and PoP combined, classic enemy models added, personas, Storms Medallions changed, Epic bottlenecks fixed, Superior Banner.

Excuse me if it comes across as rude because I'm truly not intending to come across as rude but as someone that has played tons of MMO's throughout my life.

10 years and that's what they've accomplished, that is pathetic.

Classic enemy models are normally just in a different folder that still in the everquest directory you can see this with old zones such as Lavastorm and Commonlands I'd assume the same goes for enemy models.

Combining expansions these are literal common sense things like what dumb fuck was like Yeah let's have a month of LoY after PoP because that will sustain people. LoY is a filler expansion that adds leveling zones and the best race of all.

Bottlenecks fixed? They don't do shit about bots so you're instead bottlenecked by bots woo.

Like come on bro seriously.

The changes that matter never will, they will never enforce their own rules and that's a change that could actually matter, how about eliminating botters? How about eliminating people that use 3rd party software to turn their box's into bots, how about eliminating people that use MQ2 to teleport or track things so they don't need a ranger. How about literally doing something that fucking matters?

Never once did I pop onto a TLE and go "Wow you know what would improve my playing experience classic enemy models"

Also persona's are just pay 2 win teleporting buy enough persona slots to where you can call back to your home.

10 fucking years, do you know the types of changes most mmo's make in 10 fucking years? "Oh well they don't have the team size as WoW, FF14, GW2, Ect" Then fucking hire people, start with hiring people that will actually enforce fucking rules the main game doesn't even matter at this point the only reason people buy the expansions are for the single feature that will work on the TLE's.

That 10 years of "Change's" is a fucking joke.

Again I'm not trying to be rude and I can understand how it can be seen as being rude but seriously if you see those changes as worthy of 10 years of progress you need to set your sights higher and expect more.

I didn’t read your whole post but it sounds like you only care about them banning cheaters? That’s never going to happen unfortunately. To get a clean launch on Teek it was actually easier to go to the MQ devs and convince them to brick MQ on tlp for a week than it was to get Darkpaw to do anything about cheating. It just won’t happen.

In the words of one dev “a small number of devs have a few hours a week to work on anti cheat but tons of cheaters have all day every day to work on cheating”

As for that list not being enough. They’ve also released ten new expansions. No one here cares because FoH is TLP centric but yeah the devs produce brand new content on an annual cycle. No one likes it, but no one liked the shit that came out for like ten years before that either. In fact the last expansion that didn’t suck balls on launch was Classic.

"Setting your sights higher" and "expecting more" is pretty reasonable. Its also EXACTLY what zaide does, with tons of posts and discord messages and even podcasts where he is critical of devs on various issues and explains his desires.

This is a very far cry from "What I want is the game to die and the people that ruined it to lose everything" isn't it?

If they refuse to ban cheaters why even have the rules? All the rules do is piss legit players off. The reason they intentionally post rules like 2 box max for Fangbreaker was to lure people in like myself (I admit dumb fucking decision on my part) thinking it will be different this time because they specifically stated it. Needless to say it's the same old shit. They have no problem suing an emulator for lack of players and profiting off their IP, but they're okay working with a 3rd party cheat program dev that's destroying their game that's not just pathetic it's scummy.

As to devs only have a small hour to work on it. I sent in 20 fucking video's to Daybreak mind you this is what they tell you to do because you're not allowed to talk about it on their forums or Discord and you know what was done. Not a fucking thing it's not that they have low amount of hours to work on it, it's a blattent fucking lack of giving a fuck. They simply don't give a fuck because they see a person that pays 15 bucks a month verses someone that's cheating that's paying 90 dollars a month + exp potions and they go "Man fuck that guy that only pays 15".

The list isn't enough because the new expansions are trash Warlords of Dreanor had more content than the new Everquest expansions I bet Yandere Simulator Dev does more work than the Everquest devs.

"Setting your sights higher" and "expecting more" is pretty reasonable. Its also EXACTLY what zaide does, with tons of posts and discord messages and even podcasts where he is critical of devs on various issues and explains his desires.

Yeah it is very far but it doesn't change how I feel. The game has become nothing but cheaters and the game has been legit ruined for legitimate players.

If someone cheats you remove what they earned because it was earned through unfair means, Everquest is ran by cheaters now remove the game and take everything they got.

Personally I don't see saying that as that bad. I'm not calling for doxxing, I'm not calling for physical harm, I'm not calling for these cheaters to be harassed for cheating. I'm just wanting them to lose everything via fair means such as Everquest dying.
