    28 Years Later

    Fairly close together we had the Dawn of the Dead remake (entertaining but kinda schlocky remake in not much more than name), Shawn of the Dead (parody that surprises you with its depth) and 28 Days Later (serious, artsy but in a good way). That was a fine time to put the genre on a shelf for a...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    I think the idea is to give people more reasons to engage with the normal part of the game. As it stands everyone that isn't hopeless does all their grinding as fast as possible. That means that for a lot of players if you're trying to do stuff other times during a content cycle the only people...

    Mirror raids (using the legacy system to level another character of your same class and temporarily equipping it with all your main's gear) to take the most advantage of the additional lockouts isn't too bad during Classic or even Kunark. You can select the choicest bits and the time investment...

    People like launches. There's only one TLP server this time too. That will help the starting numbers quite a bit. Boxer kronolord types exist so they'll be there selling the epics they can sell. Retention is going to be a disaster.

    Phew, it'll be easier to find your merchant loot. As a reformed shitter I appreciate a change like this. At the bottom level of difficulty let me grind my face against the boss. The changes they've implemented since the league launched have all been fine. It's too bad they started out a...

    EQ TLP 2024 Teek (Random loot) & Tormax (Traditional) #neckbeardnostalgia

    If it was Classic through Luclin with level caps at 40, 50, 55 and 60 with a reason to try and do content at each break point (Vaniki achievements, bonus loot) plus Legacy characters plus their Resource Hunter than that's kind of something. Locking people at 50 until November 12th with no...

    Final Destination Bloodlines (2025)

    It occurred to me I really had only seen 2 through 5 once each so I gave them all another go. Watching them one after another did them no favors. I was shocked to see Ramona Flowers was the star of the third one. Even for formulaic horror sequels these were formulaic. Nice to see Tony Todd...

    Vaniki at least was advertised on the box as being a gimmick challenge server. If you were raiding the achievements were the goal. Getting enough people on board with funneling on the annual and only TLP to do content is probably not going to be a thing. Server launches Wed May 28th, you bind...

    Making alts and doing lots of and lots of epics sounds like something casuals would do but the level 50 cap is going to throw a small wrench in some of them and a huge wrench in others. Doing Trakanon for Undead Dragongut Strings is going to be a major challenge bordering on the impossible...
