How do you justify not paying for EverQuest?

Yup. There are some P99 players who play TLP, so it's not even that 100% of our player base causes the IP holder to lose TLP money.

They recently had their "classic" server and it was a total bust, their mischife server was booming.

But I genuenlly think the tormax server was of no interest to people becuase everyone who play eq on live got what they wanted from classic on P99, or are here.

Id have played tormax if not for p99, thats at least 1.

i remember that first TLP server being sold as classic, maybe not officially from them but it definitively was how it was sold to me back in 2016 or whenever that was by people here or somewhere on the internet.

and it turned into a complete fucking joke like 10 minutes in when i realized those potion merchants with Hots and DD heals and Clarity and all that shit was ingame.

i've given them multiple chances to get their hooks back in me but they fuck it up each time, most recently relogging into my level 120 necro with a blank UI and there isn't a button to press to just load up a starter hotbar setup and spell loadout, like my brother in christ, i ain't about it sit here for an hour and half just setting up my fucking UI to play your dead game, you gotta meet me half way here a little bit.

For real. I tried a few years ago to play my old characters and it just gave me like 30k AAs and I had what felt like dozens of Cooldown hotkeys to keep track of. Not for me.

like i even made a post, i was like someone will point me to a button i missed or a website with default loadout files as a starting point i could fix in a couple minutes.

nope, just make a instant level character and copy the file is solution, lol.

They did give away a free 85 for anyone with an account that did nothing/something at some point. I forget which.

Yeah, but once you log on to that 85, you have a million hotkeys to set up/organize

I thought those came with prebuilt bars. It's been a minute.

[Ekco]

they do, i'm pretty sure i burned mine on some random alt though who now also has a blank ui because i didn't do a backup

i think i got a bunch of station cash from when i was subbed last so i could prolly buy one that way

sorry tldr;

There is probably just a simple misunderstanding between Daybreak / Valve / Rogean and the dev team ( who get $0 but are passionate about eq up to velious )

# I personally *despise* planes of power expansion - it effed over all the little chanters ( effing KEI ) / took away the feeling of tremendously bigly big the game was with the addition of the retarded pok books

>>

Daybreak should get $50 for vanilla eq not for any work see *** below

# valve will probably be cool with $0 since they are "gamers with jobs" and the goodwill will make them 10 times more than *any* cut of $50

vanilla eq - should give you 7 slots since in vegas '777' is a winner on one server ( like p99 green ) will always promise p99 red coming real soon [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

imho: stop w/ the colors # not fair to those who are colorblind

go with the multiverse

1p99
2p99 # a fresh pve starting 6 months after 1p99 ( it supports pvp - turn in ur book to Priest of Harmony )

pvp # turn in your book to Priest of (Harmony) Discord
role # deliver the "plain brown package" to your GM # you are now permanently /roleplay

*** does apple computer pay microsoft for some technology

Reasoned for 10 seconds
Apple and Microsoft have had a long history of cross-licensing agreements. Rather than one company simply paying the other for technology, they've agreed to allow each other to use certain patented technologies. For example, back in 1997, as part of a settlement of litigation between them, Microsoft invested $150 million in Apple and agreed to continue developing Office for the Mac. That arrangement wasn’t a simple “payment for technology” but rather a mutual agreement where both companies benefit from each other’s patents and software.

Over the years, additional cross-licensing deals have been made—though the specifics are often confidential. So, while it’s not as straightforward as Apple “paying Microsoft” for technology, there have been financial and licensing arrangements where royalties or investments are exchanged as part of broader technology sharing between the two companies.

Valve makes a 30% cut of a games sale price on Steam, so no, they wouldn't make exceptions for a $50 title, which itself is overpriced value for a 26 year old game, if this is what you're trying to convey. Remasters/Rereleases of older titles usually settle for around $10-$30.
