Camping items, checking out new corner of dungeons I'm not familiar with, buffing random noobs, dabbling with tradeskills, fooling around on alts. And that's stuff I can just log in and do solo, and that most classes can do solo. I also group with guildies here or there at camps like freeti or am, nameds in kedge, etc. Soon, fear drops and will definitely not be kept cleared so that "the little guys" can't get some drops.

I play a lot, and I won't be done doing all that stuff before hate, then won't be done with hate before solro, won't be done with classic before kunark, etc.


Seriously. How do you end up feeling like there's nothing to do? Are you playing a rogue without a guild and just turning on lfg and standing there silently wishing for an invite? Logging off at the hbc camp and being surprised when you log on and there's still 1 of 300-900 other people who wants that camp? Playing for 10 hours every day and then being confused about not having enough dragon kills to keep you busy? Lol.


Mali, grinding mobs for armor quests or waiting in line for hs/Seb key pieces or sitting afk for hours leading up to drusella spawn? Lol. If all of classic eq can't keep you happy, you sure as fuck will be bore out of your mind doing those things too.
I don't understand how you don't get this. I gain some benefit from farming those things that you say will make me bored I'm done farming everything that will even interest me in classic. Got to manastone got six boxes bunch of thex daggers one guise very little use for it cuz most of my characters are dark elves.

There's literally nothing left to do worth the time it takes to do. And I recognized that immediately that it was going to be this way. Don't go around acting like I don't have friends and I'm not in a guild I am in a damn big Guild. It's funny they disagreed with me they said the same things you did and now they're bored and back to playing on blue or not at all days go by and we don't even see them login anymore.

Maybe it's because I'm retired and have a lot more time on my hands in the winter than you do when it's cold so I really don't have much else to do while the kids were in school but the the game is still very very empty to what it will be after Sol to and kunark are released.

I think it's because happiness in human beings comes from making progress, being on the journey and progressing. We've hit a brick wall so we're unhappy, no surprise there.

Also I'd say were somewhat spoiled by Sony. They kept us reeling trying to keep up with new content because they released it so fast. I watched a guy play on povar for months before I started, In This Very era I probably didn't start until a month month-and-a-half before kunark came out. The most of that time he was miserable and his complaints probably sounded a lot like ours adding in the fact that plane of hate was so broken they could barely raid it. Bill through a couple of temper tantrums that I clearly remember over that zone. He was playing at work. Lol
