Why P99 is awesome

[Morningbreath]

Ever since the mid-2000s I've been a MMO nomad. Burned out on Everquest but then not finding satisfaction in the newer more expensive MMOs.

I logged back into SWTOR last week and I created a completely new character and my mailbox is full of free stuff. I had at least 20 emails with mounts, 4 sets of armor, a new companion, vanity pets, etc.

If you log into P99 and start a toon, you get get a cloth tunic and a guild note.

OK that's not fair to P99. You also get outdated graphics, a non-existent quest interface and 8* open inventory slots.

And people LOVE IT.




*Technically only 6 of those slots will be available because 2 are taken up by food and water which will be consumed in a few hours.

You know a game is in trouble if they're giving out a lot of free stuff.

Heroes of the Storm is one such example at the moment. Been giving that a go, and they decided to give me over a month of double XP to catch up to the more seasoned players as well as freebies here and there.

Old EQ is great for saying "here's a couple of spells or a sword, that bat is probably going to kick your ass...try your best anyway"

Going forward I think only Pantheon can save those of us who want something new AND difficult [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Yeah, new games are awful. And, older games after EQ1 turned awful fast after good starts. The world is infested with people who have no patience and want instant gratification so games now cater to those types of people.

God bless u ain't rong

Everquest.....dark age of camelot. The best 2 mmos in existance.

P99 for that tasty old school eq.
Uthgard for old school DAoC.

Hoping Camelot Unchained is the next awsome sauce.

If Pantheon doesn't deliver I will probably lose faith in humanity.
