I had Atari as a child and those types of games are much more typical of what I think of as "kid's games." They're short, no depth, quick to get into and out of, and no great appeal to adults.
I like progression and it was nearly endless. It is slow paced but can be very intense at times. The social aspect was great too. Huge world to explore, lots of challenges.

TL;DR same as today but it was new back then.

Oh and I don't know why you're saying this, N64 released in 96 and even as a kid/teen I sank hundreds of hours in many games, not sure why you're making kids/teens unable to play anything but braindead shit.

I wish I had thought to stream back then just so I had a VOD because I saw so many people boxing but had no proof of it other than "trust me bro."
Unfortunately the only way for this to stop is that the devs/admins need to go literal draconian scorched earth on anyone who even looks like they might maybe be cheating, scripting, botting, or boxing.

But they won't.

Bro, folks are allowed to have lots of interests.

And you're allowed to want P99 to be fixed and attractive, while also in the meantime go kill frogloks elsewhere until such a time.

Question whether it's effective to even post here though; almost all CSR from p99 PLAY ON QUARM....lol dude, literally these guys don't even log in to p99 anymore; ever. They just play quarm and THJ.
Of course they are. Again, not criticizing anyone's interest in Quarm at all. If you like playing that, that's awesome and I'm happy for you. Again, just saying it seems weird to come to the forums of another server that the commenter apparently doesn't like at all and just bash that server.

PQ isn't my cup of tea, but I can't imagine spending time going on their communication channels just to bash the server lol. Waste of time.

You know people can play both at once right?

And it's fair and reasonable to be critical of a server I've played on since pretty much launch. P99 now is the worst it has ever been, and that's saying something considering some of the past events here.

P99 was at it's worst when it launched and some retard kept ddosing it. So no, it's not "the worst it has ever been". What even is this dumb shit?

Unwise to open a new server in combo with whatever legal kerfuffle is happening right now, but enabling server transfers would be a nice and welcoming move to old friends.

Remember Christmas and that time right around? It wouldn't be like that but it would allow people some goddam liberty.

Well the good news for you is that if you like PQ it's still up and running so you can play there if you hate P99! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
