You pretty much had to want to seek out lore, in EQ. I'd say most people got to 50 without knowing EQ had any lure at all. I don't remember any. Then again, I gave it up a little bit into Kunark. Not sure many people where into the questing part of EQ back then.

I don't think you need an " invite ", you just signup. https://account.monstersandmemories.com/

Make sure you all are watching your temps. I got a massive GPU temp spike, with a 3070 ti, just having the server select open.

Thats one of those things I believe every online game dev wishes they had an answer to. I have never seen it done well to this date. The rebirthing might work for a while but I'm sure most will get bored with it after a few times. I play a lot of these rebirthing games with my kids on Roblox...

The rebirthing(reincarnation) system isn't rewarding enough, it's just annoying. The cube cheese, alt merc swapping, + loot stuff, and auto sell bags are nice, but the rebirthing is a game killer for me. I'd rather just be classless. But I guess that's why its Chainbreaker. Lots of good stuff...

Neat. I always enjoyed these. I guess it's time to dust off my fishing pole and grab some worms.

Good enough, I guess. Just ended up grabbing the DC upgrade for $6. You can buy it through the website, for some reason it's not available from the app.

Did they just change it to the normal version? boo.

Perfect timing, I was looking to buy the death stranding director cut just the other day. Glad I didn't pull the trigger. Merry Christmas and God Bless.

Pretty sure EQ2 had instancing, " pick zones ", and time lock raiding based on when your character entered a zone, which came out before wow. iirc.

I'm glad these guys are doing this because, it will show how much interest there is left in a 99 EQ type game. I have my doubts. And I have said before that I hope this is 100% a passion project and is not something that they are hoping is going to pay the bills. I always wondered how many...

From what Jeff Butler said in that 3-hour interview with Shawn, Brad wasn't truly happy with EQ, anyway. Brad wanted the game to be about exploration, more of along the lines of a MUD. The game didn't have to be hard but punishing, if that makes sense. The way MUDs were. Where you'd learn the...

I wish there was a free to play mode that didn't involve V, Jack, or the main story, which sucked, where I could just do my own thing. I also wish I could make a fat slob character, like Wilson, from the gun range, or Dex. You can make a dude with boobs, or a chick with a dick. but not a fat...

And who knows what would have happened if all those zones came out together, at the same time. I'm sure people wouldn't be as brainwashed as they are today with " MUH Guk ". Guk was the place to be because it was what we had at the time, the gear was some of the best, it was easy to access, and...

Just have similar items drop off of different named mobs and bosses. Drelzna drops Jboots, and some Named female Centaur, let's call her Kate, drops Kate's Hoof Boots, Hboots, etc. Instancing is just a combination of laziness, being in a rush, and poor game design. Not sure why a game like this...

I went through the whole game on normal, with ease, as a street brawler, annihilation spec + tech to be able to unlock doors. Shotgun's knock down, and gorilla arm's stun lock. Did most of the fist fight " boxing " quest line on very high threat because of the stun perk in the street brawler...

Decided to give this a go at 15 bucks. The main story sucked, boring all around. I get it " bomb " in head, Shadowrun esque. Ending was boring. The world is awesome, nice looking, and detailed, the best part of the game. It took me about 30 hours to finish it, doing some of the side stuff, and...

I seriously think this is how the show will continue to play out. Powerful women and " browns " saving the day, while " white male " characters, continue to be portrayed in a negative way. Weak men will create the evil rings, and power women will step in and save the day. It was the first things...

All these brave powerful women warriors, so defiant, so strong, independent, talking down to and saving their weak men/sons, proving them wrong throughout the show. They should rename to the show to, LOTR: The Women of Power. Don't forget the smartest of hobbits, is a strong black male. The show...

I can already foresee all the bugs, exploits, crashes, glitches, and good times. 100% will play it day one.

I see they made being a trader a lot easier, and now with easy nanites! You don't have to leave your capital ship at all. Just Warp sell/buy the trade goods, from the ships trade post add-on, scan system for the nanites, from the ships scanner add-on, repeat until you get bored.

What a pain in the butt trying to get the Hospitality quest to work/done. I really hate forced multiplayer stuff. Had to warp to get the other guy's Capital Ship to show.

I used to play on Survival, made it to the center, a few times, an achievement only 1.2% of players have done, Kek. But now I just play on normal, less inventory management, easy weather and easy sentinels, just to relax while playing.

If I was blizzard, I'd disable that spergs chances at a 5star gem for laughs and easy money.

Same here. Loot being based off of paragon level is a game breaker for me and if they do this shit with D4 fuck that game too. I can stand the p2w, because I really don't care about being #1, but being limited by paragon level to do anything, like finding better gear and upgrading gear, is just...

Nope, now he needs to socket that 5 star with a 5 star.

They will once they reach battle pass cap, grinding paragon levels sucks without it. Gear and upgrades have a required paragon level. Haha, I'd say most of the people in my clan of 100 people have bought $15 the seasonal battle pass. seasons last about month.

Battle Pass caps at rank 24 unless you pay for more ranks. Gems are the main thing that makes you stronger. There is a thing called total resonance, +% to all stats. it's based off how good your gems are. 1 to 5 stars, also gems can be ranked up. You can also awaken gems, giving them a gem...

Leveling up the battle pass. Grinding instances that give you 20 battle points. Leveling up your Battle Pass doing activities. Battle Pass exp increase with character level. It's better to save up activities and pop them at higher level or when you need them. only took me about 20hours to get to...

I remember exploiting the shit out of this with my blaster, flying under the map, and killing things from below. Good times.

Many such cases. Stuff like this used to trigger me, but this stuff happens everywhere, not just in the gaming industry. To what degree it happened at Sigil and Visionary Realms, I don't know. As always, two sides of the story. It's sucks, and I can't say that I'm not guilty of taking part in...

That doesn't make him wrong. How many games, in that time period, got more funding than Vanguard, it wasn't just SWTOR. His biggest complaint was not having the money to hire enough talented programmers. No money, no talent. Followed by the scope of the game. What would Vanguard have been like...

Huh, Not, sure why I didn't/don't remember that. Maybe because I spent 90% of my time mining (was one of the highest level miners, on the server) and crafting than I did in combat. Don't remember doing much combat at all. Not really sure what the point of combat was in Horizons. Since, i...

People want to see what they want to see. For me It currently looks like your generic unfinished classic RPG that's years away from being anything. my biggest observation? Way too much brown. I want to say it looks ugly as shit even compared to 99 EQ, but I'll hold off till later to make that...

4th post in this thread, been following since the beginning, been following Shawn, on twitch, before he thought about making the game and have watched their recent proof-of-concept game play, play testing. Still not convicted that they just want an EQ clone. A classic style mmo, sure. It always...

Seems about right. It always happens every time a dev team comes out and says that they are going to make " Classic Fantasy MMO ". I clearly remember this bullshit with Vanguard, and Pantheon. Will MnM be an EQ emulator, with new assets? might be? and if they said that somewhere, please do link...

Explain how sharing an idea, in a thread, on a game that is under development, years away from being finished, is derailing that thread. because you didn't like said idea. You know what derailing the thread? this bullshit, and you crying like a SJW because someone said something you didn't like...

okay, and? just because someone talks about their ideas that you find unappealing, or they trigger you in some way or another, doesn't mean you need to reply, with a shit post. I did you see your suggestion about " I like EQ warrior, auto swing, taunt, bash, kick " but yet, I didn't get filled...

He did, he said he was a gamer before anything. I guess that is part of why he wasn't happy and left Sony. He must have hated not being able to game all day and have to take orders from Sony executives who were non-gamers. Brad too? Seems fair. I would not want to take orders from someone who...

And you have a better idea? I would like to hear it, or are you just and NPC, without thoughts on anything, outside of " this is good, this is bad. " You know what shits up these boards? People like who just chime in with replies like that, which adds nothing to the conversation, much like this...
