Resubbed All Access

Postby Lyion » Mon Aug 14, 2006 10:12 am

Since I was bored of WOW and need at least a decent break, I resubbed to All Access.

Sooo, anyone on the progression server who wants to power level me, I'm available!

I'm also going to check out Galaxies, EQ2, and Planetside again because I haven't played them in a bit.

Not true...

I just woke up because I had a screaming baby all morning and day keeping me awake, so I'm not going into more detail of how much ass the Progression server kicks.

Dear God, how can this game be so fubar after so many years.

Ok, getting stuck in the geometry as an ogre is understandable, but lame.

Ok, having a KOS mob at a bad city bank is also within reason, if totally idiotic and stupid.

However, being summoned across zone and insta killed by some epic encounter just really is stupid. Hi, might want to fix the Enchanter Epic in the FOB, retards. It wiped out the entire zone of n00bs for some reason.

Without powerlevelling or twinking, EQ is an episode in Sado-Masochism. So much pain!

Upcoming changes to EQ:

â—
Inside each person lives two wolves. One is loyal, kind, respectful, humble and open to the mystery of life. The other is greedy, jealous, hateful, afraid and blind to the wonders of life. They are in battle for your spirit. The one who wins is the one you feed.

Other things that EQ should've fixed years ago.

1. Downtime while levelling. Really, its ridiculous.

2. Fizzles for low level players. We all know SOE hates their players, but there's no reason a level 4 should fizzle his entire mana bar. Then goes back to 1 and has to wait for mana.

3. Quests just suck ass in Everquest. Implementation, rewards, and means are all terrible.

4. Zone layouts. Hi, why are there level 25 mobs in the middle of the n00bie zone?

5. Twinktastic bad mudflation.

There's a reason why WOW has 2 billion people, and EQ has about 500. Good god, how in the world did I play this game back in 99.

eh, the zones in EQ are a million times more interesting than in WOW

the quests blew for true tho

as for the fizzles, it's harsh, but when you're a low lvl, you're supposed to suck at casting

Actually, I'm having fun screwing around in EQ2 right now, so it was worth the 24.99 to give me something to do.

I really, really like the flight modelling in SWG. I'll check the rest of SWG out and see if its any better.

It's fun to hop on the Progression server to screw around, and maybe it's just me, but EQ really is showing its age, especially compared to EQ2 and WOW.

If they implement this decently:

Introducing the concepts of being in and out of combat so we can use that mechanism to lower downtime in between fights.

I'll screw around a bit more on EQ Progression.

I like gaming and MMOs. Doubt I'll quit unless I suddenly get enough cash to buy a sailboat and set off forever.

Oh, Ginz. I'm still glad you didn't get the ES Breastplate. :wink:

If you want to duo on old EQ, My Iksar Shaman is 10ish Kalec. I need a partner, since Harri is the only other person I know, and he's busy playing Mr Mom. Hopefully he's at least getting a little action.

P.S. I am rich, I can twink you at the same time as Lyion, Drem, and my monk(monk only needs a haste item and jewelry now)...

I've already handed Drem like 3kish?

Now you have to figure in that 1k still sells for about 50 bucks IRL too lol

The only time I will get poor is when I have to buy a crown from Sky for my epic (which will be soon)
