literally my first order of business in spear of nation was pking the guild leader bard cuck for playing blue release instead of red when he recruited an entire guild for it
this was before guard assist, when the server was actually fun

Yes I was griefed that one time I died while boxing a shaman. Good times were jousting 360 degrees and the channeling radius being doubled or tripled you didn't have to corner cast.
I killed Casey like 5 times

Those were the best of days. Before pvp level reduction, the removal of xp loss on pvp death, and worse of all... the "play nice policy" :(
Sandbox with less sand is never as fun. Let the players decided to be nice , or not.

I feel sad arguing about this, but you should feel worse for lying or manipulating your personal memory of the events to the point where you're convinced of a lie. Lets be sad together, shall we
I'm fairly certain you only killed me once while I was naked and we were grouped in qeynos hills. I think we were traveling and I was afk.
No one has killed me five times on any pvp server, let alone beta. I don't even think any one person has actually been able to kill me twice.
The only person I recall ever killing me in beta was cwall, in rathe mountains. I was medding from hill giants and he killed me with a gatorsmash.
but hey if that's your claim to fame, by all means milk that shit. I can't remember any of your characters, and I have a pretty damn good memory.

good ole days when GMs cared?
rogean released red99 at the time because he got mad during beta and said "fuck it, i'm done, this is all you get"
amelinda, the only GM, gave zero shits about anything other than her marshmallow business that fueled constant corruption

Bingo, it also coincided with some blue content release I think? With everything going against it red still had 600 people at launch and Blackburrow was like Aleppo. Everyone blames red's failures exclusively on its community but there were so many factors playing against it from the very beginning.

It's a guarantee that people would play classic era just to dig into it. On blue and red today only stuff worthwhile is on the snow. On red99rallosrennaissance it's another game entirely and u can rock out and hunt twinks at level 10.

EverQuest would be a lot better if the focus was on dungeon crawling with most end game loot coming from groupable content, and with some sort of BOTW style durability system that keeps you grinding.
heartbrand
03-12-2017, 02:14 PM
Also towns and faction should matter more and there should be some sort of infamy system. Maybe you need food or shelter or something I dunno.
MMOs suck now.

Just want a game that doesn't boil down to clicking NPC's with !'s until max level, then queuing instances dungeons and raids until max or near max ilvl then quitting for 6 months until next instances raid and dungeon.

I don't even bother buying any new mmorpg's anymore, because they just arn't going to put out our game. there is no "market" for our game.
the only game they put out is something that a 8 year old has to be able to play. put an 8 year old on EQ, he wont be able to figure anything out, put an 8 year old on wow he will be lvl 60 in 2 weeks.

Play on grand creation, its challenge on a whole new level
currently @ omens
most people who played live are nostalgic about Omens.
thats not many people on red99.

Main thing I remember about pop is twinks patrolling the books waiting to zoom off to safety if they got even remotely close to death before the end of item loot with ldon augments.

That's why luclin and beyond is stupid.
Real Everquest especially classic there is no easy escape if things go south in lguk you are dead and most classes ain't getting back down there too easily.
Going to war in classic eq geared for victory meant a real risk it was good times and maybe best game ever. So dangerous.
