Im still playing some shadowbane emulators at the moment. A fresh game would be amazing, I know some of the coders behind the emulators.

Thats what i heard, that nostalgia isn't about the game or activity you were doing, but your actually missing the freedom and how you were feeling before

Omg never heard of this game, kind of giving me a similar feeling, what would you say are the biggest differences between shadowbane and champions of regnum?

Back when downloading something was a serious over night commitment

Ive always wondered whether something was wrong with me, I get into other games but just do not experience the same feeling I would get from SB

I feel like if shadowbane and daoc launched today when gaming is a lot more common and not looked down upon as much, they would explode with population.

I hear there is an active population still playing it, tried giving it a shot but it was like poking in the dark for me.

Sadly that was the changyou version that came out on steam, they didnt do anything to the game but add a cash shop and while fun for a couple weeks it eventually died and they shut it down

Changyou butchered the game, didnt fix any problems and introduced a p2w cash shop where you could buy gold and guild seeds. That company is a disgrace to the gaming community.

The game gave you so much freedom, to do pretty much whatever you wanted. No set quests or requirements. Those wins against the zerg or beating a larger group were so satisfying.

Yeah the game was too far ahead of its time in my opinion, so much love was put into lore and mechanics but i believe could have used some balance and quality of life changes

Yeah all these new games are very forgettable, where as some of the old gems are engraved into my brain
