  • Other than a lot of great stuff already mentioned.. it was the feeling you had when you were in Norrath. Not playing a game, but being in another world.  But to list a few things: From the beginning on the game was a bare frame that allowed you to…
  • I firmly support this idea. At some degree the cities are always a dead place. There are fake houses, pretty much like walking on a Hollywood set. The same goes for smaller villages and farmlands. Now I work in urban planning so I can see a lot of t…
  • Cheers for the info. Will take it into consideration to decide whether or not I will give it a go. Got an email last night of reduced one month subscriptions by SOE, so might just give it a shot. Would be great to re-experience the old glory
  • So what's about this leveling to 50 in one month? I am a Veteran that played at the time of classic / Kunark. I point-blank sucked in leveling. Never really got out of my teens. What I remember was there were not much quests to be found. Killing m…

  • Originally posted by bunnyhopper Whilst I agree that there should be content for solo players and that simply because they are playing an mmorpg it shouldn't mean that they are instantly shoved into a group, some of your other points I feel are …
  • Originally posted by bunnyhopper Originally posted by Augurk Originally posted by WSIMike snip.. I person who plays solo all the time does have access to all the content, that they can't complete said content without a group is prefectl…
  • Which I agree upon in my post. If I misinterpreted your comments on MMORPG heritage then just consider the rest of my post to be a general comment of my view on the whole discussion
  • Originally posted by WSIMike Nnnnno. Massively Multiplayer means "a large amount of other players". As in, a massive amount of other players. Massively describes Multiplayer, they're not discreet terms in that context. From Wikipedia: "Massively…
  • As a quite experienced MMO player I have a little different opinion than most on this I see. I play MMORPGs because of a love for immersive and expansive fantastical worlds, in any setting. What adds to the experience of an MMO is the ability to s…
