How did they get this game so right?

I remember there was a comic book store that had DnD groups and you actually had to pay to join a DnD group

While I think they nailed a lot of things, for a game with quest in its name, I spent way more time camping than questing. You would think that many of the items you would get would be done by questing for it like they did with Sol Ro Armor. The game technically was an open beta for a while IMO

This is an excellent point, something I forgot to add in my OP. Questing seems like somewhat of an afterthought which is indeed kind of funny considering the title of the game. But to Evia’s point I think it kind of worked out. It naturally put a larger emphasis on grouping with others for EXP and items, which IMO is the very core of what makes this game so great.

DnD neckbeards who spent hours around a table now can do they same thing but never leave their basement.

The REAL quests is the ones you set for yourself "I want to complete this epic, or get this level, or this item, or go to this zone and fight this creature."

If you look at it that way the quest is eternal.

Congratulations you've discovered the meaning behind the name of the game.

if i added custom content to a p99 esque clone (channeling would be ffixed) it would be a lot more low lvl quests and npc dialugue u could ask them about all kinds of things in their city and the world and every npc would have their own opinion on it -- lkike u could be like /say 'what about Antonius Bayle' and the baker may be like ...

"well he is a clown butt a gud clown" and u could be like what about Commander Kane and they'd be like "Them gnolls sure don't fuck with commander kane he sure makes sure the bread shipments get delivered on time, who cares about a few missing hoodrats'.

you could get like a 9/29 +5 agi katana at lvl 40 or one with int

or a dagger that looked like a katana with like +5 int and +5 mr that was wizard only and had a clicky 6.0 sec bonds 10 charges at lvl 50 and was rechargable somewhere easy for the wiz to port to by just handing it into an npc and they'd give u back a charged one maybe it would cost periodots or something to charge it up, so the sword + periodots == sword lookin cool dagger back for wizards

[magnetaress]

i would also nerf the shit out of epics and make everything with a click or proc effect work like the above so u would have to charge/click everything so no more infinate procs on weapons like yekesha they'd be like an insta cast stun with like 30 charges or something

I never did. I made friends. Lol.

It's always fascinating to see how some games hit the mark while others fall short. Sometimes, it's a mix of luck, creativity, and a deep understanding of what players want. Brad and the team behind this game might have drawn inspiration from DnD and MUDs, but they likely added their unique twist and made it work brilliantly.
