It does seem shitty to have all this shit in the beta that the streamers have been showing off to people. Some bait and switch shit going on.

I don’t have an issue buying some quality of life things in the game. I also think if they get enough backlash on things that they will end up back peddling.

I can see quitting after those changes were snuck in. Absolutely bait and switch.

Wow truly shocking that they would go with the phone game monetization scheme nobody could have seen this one coming.

So it's not as bad as the people who were saying they would charge for primary race/class unlock tokens were saying it would be. It's worse?

I don't remember any tutorial, just getting dumped into Greater Faydark as an Elf or Freeport as a Human.

This is like the beginning of metroid where you get to play fully powered up and then something knocks you back to 0.

Now that I know there's going to be some modernized p2w mechanics to take advantage of I've just ordered 8 copies, going to 8box some mythic+ raids.

While the bait and switch does suck, what is there is still super enjoyable to me. I’m on Halas if anyone ever wants to group up.

How did we go from being able to carry like 10,000 items for free in Anarchy Online to paying for 25 slots

The sad truth is that the whales won a long time ago. Even Vegas doesn't care about the plebes anymore. It's a pay to play world.

In this genre, they’ve definitely won. Others valuing action per second like fps, league, speed running…the dollar can not trump the high tism players. Sadly, games are going to keep shifting towards more of a pleasant hotel stay vs a wild ass contra fight into mother brain’s anus. We were truly blessed to grow up when we did.

Left out this part:

As if this wasn't enough, they reduced exp a week before pre-order launch. Then reduced it even more for the pre-order. This may not be their intent but without solid communication and transparency, what are people left to think?

How does the xp rate feel now? Guessing it's so they can sell xp pots and bring it back up to what you had in beta. Also weren't 'loadouts' their solution to not having alts? It's not 1:1 with the alias system, but what does that mean for swapping out multiple classes?

I am having just as much fun as I was hoping for. Three people camping a Dervish Cutthroat camp in North Ro, classic. Level 10 mnk/shm/nec. EQ with all this QoL is exactly what I wanted.

There are probably a few demographics from the standpoint of a forum like this.

1.) people who haven't played eq a lot since the 90s and recently retired and don't want to pay for official TLP

2.) longtime eq Tlp players that hate boxing

3.) ???

4.) profit

Is this game any good and worth investing time into? So far I've made it to level 2 and everything is new and weird and scary. I'm an old ass dad gamer now I need my security blanket of knowing how everything works.
