I still play EQ1 at times. Usually a couple months every year. Just looked at Throne and Liberty. ugh no. "Player roles and abilities will be dictated by which weapons the player has equipped, and you are able to equip two of them, swapping betwee…

I've read and listened to a lot of litrpg books. There are a lot of great systems in them, but wouldn't work for today's games at all. The biggest reason is the AI that runs these games. They produce the unique and dynamic quests, balance the econom…

I still regularly play backgammon and cribbage. Also Yahtzee on my phone.

DAoC with an updated engine so movement isn't so atrocious, and of course no ToA.

People will go where the cheaper price is. What epic needs to do is make deals with other companies. All the steam games I have, not a single one was purchased through steam. They came from places like Amazon, humble bundle, etc. that gave me a ste…

The car analogy had me thinking. Even buying a car is kind of like getting a MMO. To use your car legally, you still have to pay a subscription (registration, car insurance), and still get hit with micro transactions in the form of gas and maintena…

When I've seen lite used with MMO, it was used for the MMORPG and referred to the RPG aspect in being light on the roleplaying mechanics, not on the massively multiplayer part. Also the term I'm seeing used a lot more now is MOGs, multiplayer onlin…

Got it, not a prime member. I was maybe 4 years ago and get the free trial whenever they offer it to me, hehe.

I always liked a variety of BiS items. In EQ, sure there were BiS items, but when they added focus effects, 1 item might be clearly the best for a slot, but if I had that effect already, it wasn't really best for me. I remember having 3 pieces of a…

Lol, ya you beat me to it, got distracted at work before I hit submit. I guess you could have went alphabetical, heh. Or list them by release date, lol.

I think maybe people should do a "search page" or look at the list better before saying something isn't on there. City of heroes, Horizons, Matrix Online are all listed, lol

I find it funny when people say going back to old school is de-evolving. Most of the newer games only have a fraction of what the old games had. The games have been cut and watered down, streamlined for moving from 1 location to the next, but beca…

Hmm interesting. I always thought the MMO should have been released first. When KoA was done first instead, my first thought was that the studio probably wouldn't last long enough to produce the MMO. The single player game was just 1 of many in a …

If it is a game I intend to buy no matter what and play on day 1, I don't mind preordering, especially if I benefit from it. I'm rarely disappointed from those orders. If I dpm't plan to play day 1, then obviously won't preorder. A definite preorder…

I do need massively multiplayer. Also it really isn't that hard to define, or at least narrow down. It does come with a bit of context and will differ for people but not drastically. For example, let's take vanilla WoW, and make it even smaller to …

I hate scaling, but there are some things that involved it that I found to be interesting. I liked the mentor system in eq2, where a high level character could lower there level to group with friends and gain exp, and be slightly stronger. I think s…

I wouldn't mind a game that had everyone start out with no magic, but spread throughout the world are orbs that imbue people with a line of magic like lightning, water, plant, etc. Locations are totally random, and maybe there are only about 10+% of…

It is probably better you watched the movie first. I read and listened to the book, and when I watched the movie, I was like WTF. Some things I understood needed to be changed because they couldn't get the rights to use it in the movie, but others w…
