I'd call it tragic, not ironic.

It's basically proof that at long last, no one really likes or has time for the entire social premise behind MMORPG's and before that, DnD itself, and if given a choice they will just fuck around with soloable versions of said worlds.

Shovelquest is a one-man billboard "MMORPG's are kickass when you remove the need for other people."

None of this is ironic. As I gaze upon humanity, I say it is predictable.
Am I? because Ive played project 1999 for like 10 years. Why do you think Project 1999 "removes the need for other people."

?

I think roughly 112% of your posts for the past month or so have been about a MMOG that removed the need for other people.

You must literally have issues because in no post did I ever say that lol. I legit think you have a learning disability (and to be clear, I don't mean that as an insult, you just literally seem unable to understand words and statements).

Because you literally call me out in this forum you dork.

I literally said that there are 3-5k users online at any given time on THJ.

That takes like 30k users to maintain. You just can't get that through your FAT head.
Buddy, you started ranting about THJ long before I began engaging with you about it. And you would continue to post about it whether I posted about THJ or not (as can be seen from several days back).

Or is the actual reason that you're posting about it here because there are no more THJ forums/discord to post in because it got shut down since it's owners were greedy assholes who were grifting people and monetizing someone else's IP illegally?

Sorry that i am capable of enjoyhing multiple things loser.

id say 112% would be about AI but since you just like to argue with people for the sake of it, nice math.

due to reduced attention spans and smart phones DnD in person became more an exercise in restraining oneself to not reach over the table to strangle a mother fucker for going "huh, oh my turn? what's going on".

classic eq had the best balance of streamlining that shit away while still having meaningful downtime and socializing and then the genre at some point turned into mashing and cycling f1 - f10 and watching dps meters and min/maxing which inevitably leads to people soloing or boxing instead of socializing and relying on/with random other people.

so it's mostly just the vast majority of people playing wrong is my point i guess.

You litreally argued that P99 and Quarm had just as many users as P99 that is the point of this entire conversation.

The one thing I think that goes against the population argument is that when Green launched there were over 2,000 people on the server and Daybreak didn't try to pull any shenanigans to try to revoke the agreement. Quarm has had a lot of people on it too.
