Serious question

naw love makin nerds cringe and get mad. too ez. besides i got more classic changes comin through the pipe.

I actually find it easier to get groups on Red as a new player as people dont care if your not super twinked.

I just started a toon in rags, got from lvl 1 to 40 in no time at all, without playing ridic neckbeard hrs.

The groups have a more classic feel, I've been in 100% caster groups in dungeons like Uguk with everyone in rags shits fun as hell haha.

Also sayin there isnt any action to be had as a lowbie is not tru at all, I have either been able to start a group or join one within 20mins or so of loggin on every night.

Ill play wit mah 300 toxic red hommies over 2000 blue eq snobs anyday

most games have encounters that involve more than just spam ch and using walls. there are also caps on raid engagements meaning you cant just zerg down content like we do here. to say EQ takes any kind of skill, compared to mmos out there, is ridiculous. time sink != skill.

Took 9 days to do titan on extreme, 12 days to do ramuh, 7 for leviathan and 4 for shiva in FFXIV

if you havent tried a realm reborn you dont know what your missing.

Not classic, no biggie.

I dunno what you were saying about final fantasy online, is it hard or just take a long time to do stuff?

EQ takes a different kind of skill, but no MMO takes the really "skilly" kind of skill like a game like street fighter requires, or real life achievements might acquire. I play R99 (when I play) because it is the most enjoyable MMO still.

And to Malevz I am saying a large pop on red server, blue server remains blue despite high pop.

Really though I don't think anyone claims that everquest is a high skill game. It takes dedication, some game knowledge and devotion all of which are in short supply in most players, so most players fail.

Because the 4th time is always best.

Real players like to progress where they aren't going to get dumped on. Half or more of playable content is totally empty because of nearly unsustainable low population. Makes the game sad. Level 60 game here is pretty solid, the real game (level 1-50) is not.

Sounds like Gustoo wants to bum around in newbie zones and talk to low level players. Great, wow, that's one thing you can do on blue to your heart's content that isn't available here. Big fucking deal.

We have an exp bonus here, people aren't low level for long. Why would you care about something like this? Go to a populated high level zone and chat with people, there are plenty of cool people here that need help.

I like more than one dimension of the game that's all. We are rock solid in some areas and others not so much. I didn't make this thread to talk about my stuff but rather to celebrate the different reasons we like red.
