what keeps you playing?
 
between the lag, shitty raid scene, rampant RMT, hackers, slow moving content, and the fact that this game is already 14 years old, what keeps you hardcore kids playing? this is a serious question, because I, like many of you, love the game. however its just so dreadfully boring once you hit max lvl that i cant bring myself to play for more than a day before uninstalling and going back to the other games i play. what gives?? am i missing something?

Captives generally come to identify with certain aspects of their captors. In this specific case: Pain and Suffering.

Why do people play chess? That has been around for almost 2000 years.

Because it is fun.

Who cares if it is old. It is still fun.

People who go out and buy a game which is essentially the same as many games before it are just caught up in the marketing. EQ classic has almost the perfect balance of difficulty / Fun and re-playability.

People still uninstall games in 2013 when their HDDs are multiple terabytes? :confused:

i dont mean what draws you to eq in general. my question is more directed at the people that have been here for awhile and stay through all the bullshit. i understand what makes this game fun, its just after maxxing out, getting bis, and attempting to raid, what else is there?

Grief and cockblockery.


I killed everything at least once. I got my nut. Everybody else can have a pump of the prostitute
