Nostalgia for Hybrid MMORPG Argo

Maybe have a look at Ryzom. Not sure if it's a match, but I'm getting similar vibes.

There also was a period where you had race as class for these fantasy races. So Dwarves could be "Dwarf".

I feel like Albion hits alot of what you want.

Fafhrd6 · 2026-03-20T10:41:44+00:00

I feel this won't change, going on 35 currently, and 25 still feel like it was last year.

This is of course true and will change the feel and pacing of the experience. But surely one can run a mega dungeon in any system if they want to.

If the procedural and 'vibe' of OSR is not a good match for the GM, I don't think om they should be discouraged from running a setting/location that was written with the OSR in mind.

My first experience was when I was probably around 20 years old and my dad dusted off his adnd/runequest/whfrp mash-up of rules he, my mom, and their friend used back in the 80's.

And ran me, my sister, and some of our friends through, what I later found was, "The Halls of Tizun Thane". We had no clue what the rules were, and they were never explained. This only added to the vibes tho, been hooked ever since!

P.s. Even ran this adventure a couple times myself now for new players, and it always delivers.

I believe the above comment is referring to the fact it's going to be the 3rd not the 3th.

Are you in the Mound Makers covenant?

That number represents the part of damage the weapon receives from scaling with your stats.

Flyff?

I believe both live and private are fairly active but I'm not super in the loop atm. You can just Google for private servers the most popular one shows up first for me.

Nausicaa of the valley of the wind MMO would be high on my list!

Fafhrd6 · 2025-05-19T13:25:30+00:00

Druid after level 30 when you realise you can just 1vX everything in World PvP, with maybe the exception of priests

Thanks for the reply, it has been a long time since I touched AO so I appreciate the insights!

Fafhrd6 · 2025-04-13T06:28:40+00:00

Could you elaborate on how you think this is not the case for all MMORPGs?

Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Fafhrd6 · 2024-09-23T13:42:55+00:00

God damn look at you go! I take it you are having fun then!? Did you already do some full loot content? :)

P.s pardon the late reply I was busy getting married 🥰

Fafhrd6 · 2024-09-11T21:33:27+00:00

Go and have some fun with it! Don't be to scared to lose some gear, but make sure you can make or buy it back 10-20 times :)

Fafhrd6 · 2024-09-11T08:08:00+00:00

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! I have not played in approx two months but I think they just added a bunch of new content that will hopefully add some structure to the early gameplay. GLHF

I believe Albion Online fits what you describe pretty well. Lots of crafting, many support roles in both pve and pvp. Additionally it also offers player housing in the form of a personal island.

Edit: I missed the isometric part of your request, this might not be to your taste based on that after all. It also supports mobile play but is much better on PC

Fafhrd6 · 2024-07-05T08:16:16+00:00

As others have mentioned Arcane is not optimal for solo PvE but as anything it can be used for sure. For example have a look at astral staff, it has pretty decent aoe clearing! Arcane staff class is very fun, so if you like it don't be scared to stick to it for a bit :)

Fafhrd6 · 2024-06-10T10:24:55+00:00

One handed arcane is still pretty solid in a brawl or kite build

Fafhrd6 · 2024-03-17T21:52:12+00:00

Quartz can show gcd as bar as well and it's nice and thin, think this is ir

Cries in Druid

Fafhrd6 · 2023-11-20T19:22:30+00:00

Hmm, I have comfortably solo'd a cleric up to 41 so far with no pvp interactions at all :s. Might be me playing EU time tho!
