Comparing the history of competitive chess to a 20 year old elf sim with Mario Kart races and a wiki with "all the answers" is the bad logic here lol

I'll get you a participation ribbon to grant recognition for your next 16 hour poopsock Detoxx.

There are other servers for that though.

I think that instances kill servers and some element of competition is important to maintain a player base. People would be able to get their EQ closure through personal 'pixel fulfillment' and move on with their lives, though.

Thats like saying the first game of chess that was won over 2000 years ago is the only one that matters and all competitions henceforth meant nothing.

Its very bad logic.

They really don't mean anything. What's left to innovate in chess? It's a supercomputer away from being solved.

People still like to play chess, even though it has been solved computationally. Humans usually do not base their choice of games on what has or has not been solved computationally. Playing games is about mastering the game yourself, regardles of how many expert players already exist. Otherwise, P99 would have never been created, because why bother playing Everquest at all?

Detoxx is correct, people still like playing P99 (Everquest) after the game has been "solved". For many people, it is their first time seriously raiding VP, or they like VP raiding.

But, of course, not in VP. They don't actually want competition, you know, right?

Except it's all paint by numbers. It's like playing competitive chess, but these dorks are only making moves the computer or some other player tells them is the best move.

Server owners don't really care.
