Impressed? Maybe I am older and more jaded than I thought but nothing about that was impressive. I mean, they are making progress and I am not calling it a total piece of shit, but I just don't see any appeal to that type of game anymore. Not sure enough others do too but maybe I will be eating my words when this released in 2020.

I mean, if you're not into this type of game then I don't think it will ever work for you.

Right now it's just like w/ the last stream, everyone is pleasantly surprised and there is some good chatter about the game. In a few weeks everyone will be back to shitting on the game.

The current combat is in a very basic state and the characters they're playing are only level 13. Personally, it already looks fun but when they continue to add more abilities for players and mobs with better AI or "mob dispositions", I can see combat being surprisingly addictive to even those who don't like it at first glance.

I mean just the ability to die and actually lose something alone will make success in Pantheon more enjoyable than current MMOs.

It's okay to not be impressed with it, as it is more of a redux of an older form of MMO. I don't think it's really trying to be very impressive. It's really a game for us old time EQ players that no longer have a place in this genre. I'd say it IS impressive that they've done so much with like 4 people.

Yeah, kind of like velks meet crystal caverns.

Definitely had the same feel given ice, vertical, etc, I thought the environmental graphics in that dungeon were pretty impressive though, especially when the group was at the top looking over the edge. It looked really far down yet they were still able to see the dimmed lighting effects of other players' fighting down at zone in. That was good shit.

It kinda reminded me of GW2 with some of their jumping puzzles.

Dungeon looked pretty good. I liked the darkness as well. This is definitely for a very select audience but they are hitting the right notes so far. Brad has always had good ideas. Let's see if he can actually get a decent functioning game by week 2 or 3 October 2020.

I just hope that what they have so far is enough to get sufficient funding for this project (like real money, not paying the rent and the electric bills money).

I have zero problems with people wanting to make a spiritual successor to EQ. That's fine.

What I do have a problem with is Brad being part of the project. Brad's nothing but a $2 crack whore that will steal your money away from you. If that one kickstarter isn't enough to prove that to you, nothing will be. But god damn it, I'm going to sit here on the sidelines loving all the tears that come falling. They will wash over me in a glorious stream.

Brad should just go away. Go off riding your fucking dirt bikes into the sunset like one of those 80's movies. Fuckin' failed marriages, failed games, stole EQ from Sojourner, shitcanned (read as fucked) everybody that worked at that studio. Meanwhile, still snorting Oxy. It's hard not to look at this as a slow moving train wreck that you can't pull your eyes from, especially with Brad at the helm.
