I will absolutely play the new TLP server for nostalgia's sake.
Swish, I like you man, but what a naïve point of view. I get the you will stand by p99 forever, and that's cool, but what is nostalgic about this server? The years spent in kunark, or future years spent in velious? The item flooding and inflation that has item prices nowhere near what they used to be in live? Or the fact that as a normal human I cannot partake in the raid scene here due to the fact that I have real life commitments that preclude me from being tethered to my computer?
I played live on Prexus, and up until about late velious/luclin the raid scene was very organized and shared. We had scheduled days for scheduled raids. Top tier guilds actually worked together to enjoy this game. That to me is classic. that to me is nostalgic. And it doesn't exist on p99.
The nostalgia I'm after is being able to experience the content that I enjoyed 15 years ago. Back then all my friends and I played EQ, so it was fun to be hardcore because I was 14 years old and didn't have much else to do except school and EQ with my friends. Now I've got a big boy job with commitments. Is it so wrong that I'd like to be able to see end game mobs again without having to devote my life to do it?
I like you swish. You make me laugh and generally are a good contributor to these forums. But you do yourself a disservice with these posts.
