Really depends on how you define casual. Like some people think that means two hours a night three days a week or some shit. With super low responsible-dad-and-husband playtimes you simply aren't getting shit done in classic era EQ without taking years and years.

But for people who play even just like four hours a day P99 has plenty to offer without ever socking a window. You can level any alt you ever took a fancy to, farm plat and tunnel flip to buy almost any item you can imagine (on blue), and even warmbody raid to get dkp for epics and stuff. Most classes you can get some gear and epics even being in like DB or Lighthouse or something.

Green of course the high end gear is going to be even more highly contested but there's still the leveling journey, alts and droppable gear.

Its plenty fine for "casual" play but the reality of EQ is that there's unavoidable timesinks to making any progress. What you can't do is jump into it like its WoW and think you'll have BiS loots on a 9-5 schedule. But that's ok, there's more than one way to enjoy the game as long as you manage your expectations.

Very much correct Fammaden. I've got a lot of use out of P99 for 11 years and counting, but I have the "advantage" of already being uninterested in the high-end. Been there done that, didn't like it way back in the original, no interest in doing it here. The parts of the game I enjoy are open enough. P99 mainly disappoints the folks who as you say want to do the high-end on a fixed schedule, and especially those folks who never got to do it the first time around and who want to do the parts of the game they missed out on.

You ever hear or see them youtube videos where people do speed runs of super old games like Super Mario brothers? Thats what its like go hards in this community. Anytime P99 gets a day zero reset server, people will be at the gates running as hard as possible for all the yellow text, reviewing their videos and what they can do to make it faster the next run and get all the loots over and over again.

I went with this chick I was dating to an amusement park with her YMCA kids because I had a big van that could seat 15 and the kids from the afternoon program needed one for the field trip. We took them to PA, to Dorney Park before their expansion, when they were a smaller park.

Oh man those kids. They weren't happy because they couldn't get on this ride or that ride because other kids kept hogging the rides. And they were like Mr. Van Driver can you help (that's because I got them all MickeyDs on the way up) and I was like no there are literally eighteen other rides, here go on the teacups.

Although Violet and I both agreed kids were little ingrates we proceeded to break up shortly for different reasons.

maybe if you actually played the fucking game isstead of dragging your knuckles like a fucking cave man in 6 man groups and 70 man raids you'd enjoy it a bit more
