"Notice me sempi" isn't just a meme to some people.
True, all I know is I'd fucking lose my mind. Imagine trying to kill a boss and you got this gaggle of fucking retards trying to take the spotlight constantly and a 5 minute boss suddenly takes an hour because Billy wants to fuck off.

And people are acting like they weren't paying attention to MnM.

MnM, the first MMO with rain! Unless you include WoW since 2004

It’s a minor thing and doesn’t affect game play, but it feels good. Day/night cycles would be nice too. Every zone being locked in perpetual day time is dumb.

It's something I wonder if they regret after all these years. "Real time" day / night was pretty neat back in the day, but there is something about the way EQ did it that just felt right.

Remember when they first added the extra weather effects way back in the day? Like the sandstorms in Tanaris. It looked so good. Felt like it just disappeared at some point though.

Always so needlessly antagonistic and wrong. EQ did it since 1999.

But the changes to lighting and weather are clearly inspired by what MnM is doing. In the same way the tents are inspired by TWoW and the mega server is inspired by Ascension.

It's a good thing i hope it becomes industry standard for open world games. It's a massive improvement on the same old same old we've had for the past 15-20 years.

I'm happy if Blizzard just goes back to stealing all the best stuff from everything else.

No shit? I haven't noticed. Is it every zone so far?
The cycle time is 24 hours, so you have to really go full degen to see it change. Almost always night for me, I sleep alot during the day.

The sunrise in cow land was pretty good. I took an elf over and started from there. I even stayed in general chat for awhile. It was extremely low IQ but kinda charming.

That's probably why I'm not seeing it. I've got time to dick around in game during the day and its always the same time of day for me.

I always thought they should adjust WoW's night/day cycle to be more like 23 or 22 hours long instead of 24, just so it would shift a little everyday and people who mostly play at the same hours would get to see some changes.

That just ages worse and worse every year.
