Do you remember why you played EQ?

Used to watch my big brother play and he let me make a character. Instantly amazed by the game until they ruined it around PoP so i quit. P99 aint perfect or classic really at all but it kinda feels like home.

Pretty similar here except it was my little brother who played.

When Ultima Online introduced Renaissance in March-April 2000 an essentially turned it into an really crappy looking 2-D version of everquest, I figured I'd try the better looking one. Before the Renaissance patch, Ultima Online was pretty much like a red Everquest server, only you could kill anyone at anytime an loot everything off peoples corpses. Ultima Online was the reason they made red servers. Only towns were safe in Ultima, if someone attacked you in a town you could call guards, the guards would instantly teleport an instantly kill anyone openly attacking another person. Best game ever made.

UO really was special. The item\loot system was perfect because there were no fundamental must-have items. A vanq halbard was awesome, but you didn't *have* to have one to win in PVP. You could recover quickly after a devastating loss. God I miss it.

Not to mention the housing system which no modern MMO has ever replicated. EQ2's instanced housing was so god damn lame by comparison.

if I was a billionaire I would love to pour some money into a UO project but it might rival with diablo 2. And if I am stuck here forever I need to have a crappy easy fun game like diablo 2. But I can't play video games these days, due to paranoia. Its video game character names and I am mostly afraid I will think I made the name on purpose to offend my ex-boss, even though I didn't and never have. It started from being afraid of offending sjws with names like "VikingKingofRomeandWesternEurope."

its also annoying they stomp on my ceiling to the rhythm of my breathing. When I visited my dad my lungs wouldn't inhale because the autopilot system in my brain had been shut down. I have had to deal with stuff like this for 14 and a half years though so no use in whatevering about it. Also conversations in life are too complex for the average person.
