Hell levels and corpse runs don't exist anymore. Raids are instanced in addition to the open world (or at least they will be on one of the two servers), so you don't have to compete against anyone if you don't want to. Much of the crowd here will go hard because we're masochists in an abusive...

June 6th I believe

I agree, Alex was one of the more pleasant RLs to listen to. Dude was always super chill, even 3 hours into a quick Eye snipe clusterfuck. He stopped sometime in Velious I believe, but he still pops into Discord every now and then.

Oh shit, looks like they finally got around to deleting that press release. Preserved for future generations: COLUMBUS NOVA ACQUIRES SONY ONLINE ENTERTAINMENT

This whole thing is hilarious, they're trying to shuffle things around to make it look like it's not a Columbus Nova asset. The day the sanctions were announced (April 6th), someone at DBG tried to edit their wiki to remove references to being owned by CN. Someone over there should really let...

It has zones.

I agree, I do think people want the kind of game Pantheon is shaping up to be, but a lot of the skepticism has more to do with Brad than with the game itself. And to be fair, that's not unjustified - the original Kickstarter was a disaster and a lot of people around here were extremely hyped...

My first EQ character was a human starting in Qeynos. Somehow made my way to the tunnel between Qeynos Hills and Surefall, without a light source, and it basically looked like this. Teenage me knowing fuck all about adjusting gamma, tried pressing random arrow keys for 5 minutes before I exited...

Feign death is in the game, in the Cohh stream awhile back where he was playing a monk it showed him FD splitting on pulls and other shenanigans. Enchanters are in the game and I believe they said bards are planned post-launch (take that with a grain of salt I suppose). As far as losing your...

Has the progress website just not been updated or is Phinny still the only thing dead at this point?

Joppa mentioned in the Cohh stream that they received early feedback from testers that the pace of combat felt way too spammy and spastic and they toned it down when they introduced the endurance system, so it makes you wonder how bad it was before. That said, I'll reserve judgement on that...

Animations are definitely a bit stiff but I imagine those will be getting attention later, and if not that's pretty far down my list of concerns. I did think the spell effects and general atmosphere looked a hell of a lot better than the earlier streams. Visuals aside, listening to Joppa and...

What's the server pop at launch look like compared to Phinny & Agnarr?

In addition to the Cohh stream they announced another stream scheduled Tuesday at 8 PM PDT featuring Halnir Cave on this guy's Twitch: The latest screenshots don't look half bad, it'll be interesting to finally see these zones live. Hopefully this is an indicator that they're picking up the...
