Consider Project 2002

[Lorian]

The most striking difference of the P2002 pop compared to P99 pop is the maturity and friendliness. Casual rather than competitive min-maxers you will find here. I imagine P99 was like this when it first started.

Min-maxing is orthogonal to maturity. It's possible to be adult about sharing in a video game while still being all about maximizing your toon(s). And it's a different environment when you don't have 2000 people competing for the same targets. One thing I'm sure of is that come Velious, there won't be a 90 person line for the holgresh camp or 40 people all poopsocking Scout Charisa, Lodizal, and Stormfeather. P99 is a great case study of widespread mental illness.

Yes, P99 is a victim of its own success. With 7-800 prime time players and Luclin models I might still have played here, but I will never be able to invest enough time to be able to enjoy some of the best content because of the overwhelming competition. And because of this there is a steady stream of people migrating from P99 to P2002.
