As a diehard EQ1 fan who at the time mistakenly believed that EQ2 was made for EQ1 fans and not entirely different playerbase - the game sucked for me since launch.
I thought that EQ2 was EQ1 with better graphics - didnt realize t…

Unfortunately there was only one true Asheron's Call. All other games did things like group drops into colors and have specific drops.

Of course while the 3080 and 3070 will be coming out soonish, the 3060 is next year. Essentially if you plan to make a build this black friday, you'll be able to get the 70 and 80 but not the 60.

I do think it's technically possible for nVidia to do. I think nVidia held back a good bit on Turing on the tech side (and tried to make up for it on the price tag, ((excuse my poor joke there))), and…

My wife and I ran into the "milk police" yesterday.
The store had a sign saying only one milk per customer.
The clerks told us we couldn't buy two milks. I pointed out one was no fat (for my wife) and one …
That is some dystopian society if it is forcing everyone into cyborgization/digital reality. I can see it being something that is offered -- I mean a lot of people would want the added lifespan etc, but I don't see it being forced on anyone.

AAA won't touch this market until there is a sufficient saturation to justify it, and mainstream people won't buy the headsets until there are games that they want to play on it. Adoption will take longer than people think.
Both companies decided that consumers have to pay to get what will be considered decent performance and that mid-range is now $400 in the new normal. I don't see this changing except potentially in the upward direction if the market will bear it. …
The main reason is the lack of the ability to pause the game. If it could be paused for just a small amount of time each day, then a lot more people would be comfortable grouping and a lot of the bad experiences of grouping today wouldn't happen. …
Meh -- it is the lowest common denominator and we are not it.
Always makes me feel like Abe Simpson:
"I used to be with it, but then they changed what it was. Now what I'm with isn't it, and what's it seems weird and scary to me, and it'll ha…
The thing is, crafting is more like an NPC thing in flavor than a PC thing if you want to look at it as a primary class. I mean you could have a PC crafter have his own storefront. He could make quests that would hire adventurers. Heck, he could …

A few things about Daybreak:
- Their experts on developing cash shops.
- They know how people spend money.
A new Everquest will be based around this.
Money first, game second.
Heck the firs…
I prefer a system to not put artificial boundaries on a player -- IE in everquest you could get EVERY trade skill. It was insanely pricy difficult and time consuming to attain such a goal, but if you were crazy enough, you could attempt it, or more…
Character building is definitely one of the primary things that I enjoy. This, expressed in narrow channel gear management and zone options, is why I tend to dislike the endgames of MMOs. It is a lot more fun while you are building the character u…
The thing I find odd about the genre these days is before 100,000 people playing was a success -- now it is a dismal failure. When you need 5 million people playing just to break even, the kind of game you can make becomes far narrower. It has rem…

The "MMORPG" credentials of the folks running this site?
A bit like walking into your local Chinese restaurant only to find out no one working there is actually Chinese.
There is a chinese restaurant around here that is…

Sign of times.
Generations age, and younger folks take the place we used to hold 15 years ago.
Personally, if there has to be reviews to be made, and read, I think you need to have writers that can cover both perspectives…
