well my good chum, you can thank consolization for that i think. We had a version of that with FPS games on PC before, with your own servers and content. Where do you see that today? its matchmaking and lock-down to buy skins. Why would you get your own worlds unless the main company is getting its slice now?

You can thank all the Horse Armor apologists for that one. "Its only cosmetics!"
I'm sorry. And I agree.

Both unreal 2 and quake3 were because of the thousands of levels and skins and all of the mods. Servers could allow autodownloading Levels as well.

So many good levels and even the popular ones had rethemes between different servers.

Railbait did an amazing Egyptian themed level of 2forts? Can't even find anything on Google. It's like staring into a black hole.

Warcraft 3 was another game with an amazing map editor for creating custom games. Some of my favorite old games were wc3 custom games.

Starkind - Yeah I really miss all the custom levels from Unreal tournament. So many awesome levels. I loved the toy story levels that happened before toy story, where a room and its regular items are the barriers in the level. So much fun in those glorious times.

Then in rainbow six ravenshield there were amazing custom pistols only and sniper rifles only levels. I ruled at the glass levels where you can see through all the barriers and have to get the drop on a guy anyways. So much fun.

The present overdesigned bullshit games are less fun. No question.

Well - our 76 year old friend would almost certainly trade what he has for your youth.

Enjoy your lot, whatever it may be. I got to play EQ when I had the time to play it. I may regret not focusing on other things, but at least I didn't spend my time doing bad things and ruining my life in a different way.

I wish I could trade all I have and go quietly into the night to someone healthy and vital. It's not that I don't like what I have or don't enjoy it. Or that I'm unhappy. I'm actually pretty happy and content in a lot of ways.

I just wish I could enjoy it more and make something. I know some strong and healthy kid would hopefully.

The next big MMO move should be shutting down this forum and forcing everyone to use Discord.
