Agreed. I have already done the $100 Needle pledge. It's a pretty good deal (2 opiates of the game at release and Alpha access among some other perkocets) . Would rather risk 100 bucks on a Brad McQuaid opiate than throw good money after bad in some of the cash grab shit shows that try to pass as MMOs these days.

FTFY.

I am sure you will be very satisfied.

I don't claim to know the details of Brad's alleged drug problems but drug problems are pretty devastating and hard to overcome for some people. I know this from personal experience in my own family. I know you think you sound cool shitting on someone for being "weak" or whatever but in reality you just sound like a fucking tool.

If you hate Brad so much and he makes such shitty games then WTF are you playing one of his 17 year old games and posting on these forums? Why aren't you off playing one of those great MMOs on the market created by more "reputable" game devs? Hypocritical much?

Will respond to this later.

EQ is my favorite game perhaps. I logged into Vanguard only to find out it was going offline after a day or two, the game seemed nice and I regret not trying it earlier. Lead me to P99 tho, which is a great server and I would even guess Brad have at least tried it.
Pantheon looks a tad bland tho compared to the magnificent graphics of EQ but Im sure it will improve. Needs more colours atleast, but please not the WoW palette. Wont "pledge" any money upfront but will atleast try and play the game before it shuts down like Vanguard.

Good thing I'm only interested in buying Brad's games, not engaging in a long term relationship with him.

Some people gettin torqued about the stupidest shit.

Pledged!

What is your point? Lots of people have drug or alcohol problems or other personal issues. Why continue to belabor the point with such schadenfreude like it's a big joke?

I think EQ "made it big"..we are all playing it 17 years later. I seriously doubt any of these modern MMOs will be active in half that time or have anyone who cares enough to run an emulator.

How about you name one big MMO that is any good? Just because a game makes money doesn't mean it's any good. Farmville made money. Neverwinter probably made money. Doesn't make them any good.

I'm not sure this list helps. The sentiment is welcome though ^^

That list isn't even 1% of the most popular artists that did drugs.
