You do almost HAVE to get Paton if you play to end game or want to be able to participate in the economy. Secret farms are fun and exciting but having just signed on for Patron and built my house and farm it becomes much easier to earn gold and make…
Also play AA for about 4 months now. I'm lvl 54 and having a blast! I don't read forums much but had heard the complaints about Archage Being pay to win, and I've been PK'd enough times to know my toon is undergeared. Doesn't bother me though ad it …
What a crap company SOE/Daybreak. This has to be by far the biggest FAIL in the history or MMO's, probably even video games in general. Being a longtime EQ1 fan and Vanguard player, it's become the norm to watch this developer mis-manage and NEVER d…
The flip side to the old Metallica sold out opinion is that unlike many of the other thrash bands of the 80's, Metallica were not afraid to trying different things (like EQNext is) and to do what is NOT expected of them which was to keep making MOP …
Metallica didn't sell out with the Black Album ... Lars just couldn't play Dyer's Eve so they had to go arena rock =p
For a Metallica/EQNext comparison ... i'm going to go with EQNext = Master with Black Albums Production value.
Lets see, the black album was a simpler scaled back version that was easier for non hardcore fans to get into and sold millions ... Sounds lime WoW to me. EQnext seems like it will be more complex and deeper (literally) than EQ 1 or 2.
I like it! I kept an open mind not expecting anything too similar to the first 2 games. Remember this is not meant to replace either game. The female looked super cute to me, and the expressions were great. I see a lot of people making the Disney co…
I'm a fan of realistic graphics, but I think I really like what i'm seeing here. The world to me looked highly detailed and realistic while the player characters were stylized, yet also highly detailed. They reminded me of the few screen shots shown…
I wouldn't be surprised if there are a couple of things they look to Vanguard for inspiration. Too me EQ2 and Vanguard are two games from creative minds that should have been one. One side being Smed and one side being Brad. It's too bad they could …
Say what you want about Brand and his failure, but go ask Curt Schilling how hard it is to release a AAA MMO with a new company. At least Brad's game saw the light of day. Some people still do play VG ... and LOTS of people still check in to forums …
A shit storm of complaints would imply many were playing, which would be good! Looking forward to coming back once it goes FTP and really looking forward to seeing a bunch of toons running around that huge world.
Ok so i've had a few drinks tonight and i'm reading posts about VG and feeling nostalgic. I think i'm one of the many people that anxiously waited for this game to release. Was able to hang on past the buggy release and get a good sence off the unpo…
I'm playing and mosting enjoying the game on the FTP server. This is my third time getting into the game since launch. My main problem with the game has always been that I have very little sence of where I am in the world. Every zone i've ever been …

Voted other as i'm a "former" Vanguard player that would be excited to come back if it went FTP. Quit playing as I think it's pretty close to criminal to charge for a game with zero support. I don't think VG will EVER get FULL support so would only …
Cross-Server grouping ... this one, lol. First of all, if WoW has so many players on a server why is this needed? And 2nd, grouping with people you will most likely never see again creates ZERO accountablity. WoW has drastically decreased the social…
I don't know how much $$ EQ2X is making them, but I can tell you the one server is very active. I play, got the wife and kid in too .. each on a silver account and all just bought some station cash because of the current promo. And i'm a super cheap…
Maybe that's the reason ... the existing EQ/EQ2 player base is small, Smed wants millions of people on their games. More and more games are becoming FTP, or some other variant other than a standard monthly pay system, and with every game available t…
