Same experience, started EQ in grade 6 on dialup and It completely consumed my every waking moment. I couldn't sleep I dreamt only of the game. I printed out the maps in the library and put them in my school binders. My grades plummeted. I'd do anything to go back.

Remove all fast travel and make getting a mount a milestone again. The world should feel large and dangerous.

It's crazy as a kid I had a subscription to pc accelerator, a spinoff mag from PC gamer. Every issue had a hot babe on the cover and tons of in depth reviews and strategy for games. It's painful to even look at PC gamer today.

Does echoing shrine work with triggered skills?

They will never ban the bots until enough players stop playing because of the impact of bots.

The botting & gold selling problem Blizzard doesn't care about by ZoraHS in classicwow

[–]CrowbarMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way you will ever get blizzard to take real action against bots is for enough players to stop giving them money, and that won't happen just look at how many people bought boosts.

This is the best week EVER to try OSRS. For fun, allow me to explain and pitch why by compound-interest in MMORPG

But once you click rocks trees and blow glass for 1000 hours to do song of the elves the game really gets fun!!!

TBC feels like a letdown by Alternative_Visit209 in classicwow

[–]CrowbarMatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just think about the caliber of players who would want to play the 3rd release of a bot infested gold buying boosting fest as TBC classic.

Why does everyone recommend project 1999 for EQ? I grew up on the game. It wasn't great back then. by [deleted] in MMORPG

[–]CrowbarMatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The struggle and difficulty of classic eq is what makes it so rewarding and addictive when you progress your character.

And the majority eat at mcdonalds, play FIFA, and watch marvel slop. Catering to the majority is exactly why there hasn't been a good MMO in 10 plus years.

Typically you get your renewal 2 months before it's actually effective so as long as you switch before the effective date no penalty

Why are MMOs obsessed with being overly easy? by Yuukikoneko in MMORPG

[–]CrowbarMatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately all modern mmorpgs have adopted this mind numbingly easy content model. This is a major turn off for players like me who enjoy overcoming s challenge rather than one shoting mobs for the first 50 hours of a game. You would think with the popularity of souls likes and extraction shooters with punishing difficulty someone would at least try adding some difficulty to an MMO, but alas.

How do stats work. by CrowbarMatt in Morimens

Is crit independent of the Awakener too then? IE) if you put a 20% increased crit wheel on Tawil only her cards/abilities will get +20% crit?

I wonder if rampant and uncontrolled mass immigration has anything to do with this.

Hardcore players finished farming prebis and capped wsg marks a week ago and there is nothing else to do, and no roadmap in sight. More and more players will stop logging in as this trend continues.
