View Full Version : Is It A Total Waste Of Time To Play Project1999?

Yes
Yes

Why bother? The result of so many hours leveling your character, trying to get pre-raid pieces to be able to get into a guild to raid, is just getting thrown into the juvenile shitstorm that is the raid scene. The people who run raid guilds on p99 are, and always have been, some of the most petty, obnoxious, asinine douchebag dipshits the MMO community has ever had to deal with. They'd rather disrupt the ENTIRE fabric of the game instead of compromising on things. Playing here is an entire waste of time, moreso than a video game is intended to be. The endgame goal in EQ is to raid, but the raid scene is infested with fucking idiots.

You stayed in school and retired by age 35-40, right?
You didnt just fuck around in your youth playing video games, right?

Or just enjoy playing and leveling and getting what gear you can without raiding significantly

It's always someone else's fault.

Why you cant enjoy a video game.

Why you cant figure out how to use the internet.

Play until about level 55 and P99 is a nostalgia wonderland. 55+ is the only area of the game that needs adjusting

55-60 on a class that can solo is still a wonderland because there’s all kinds of places you can go. 55-60 on a class that needs a group is maybe fun the first time you do it; after that you’re just doing the same 2 or 3 dungeons over and over again

If your goal of Project1999 is to beat project1999, then you're probably playing this game for all the wrong reasons..

Beating the game involves handing out Lendel's Lagers to poop sockers, leading groups of drunk level 4 halflings into daring raids on Runnyeye while waiting for a rez, chilling killing low level mobs for trade skill components to make tasty treats.

<Dept of Fun> & <Cracked Staff Artisans> have both beat EQ/P99.

I used to look up the best possible piece of gear per slot for my class that could be acquired without any assistance or raid (basically via plat trade), and while it wasn’t BiS there were a few that were pretty comparable if I recall

Also I believe one can buy MQ of SS or thurg pieces w/o needing to raid. So basically u don’t have to raid to have raid quality gear but you will have to farm hundreds of thousands of pp.

EconomyQuest is p99's greatest crime

You win the game when you loot a cracked staff. You lose the game if you keep playing.
