ruffz posted:$150 for the Archeum Founder's pack and then I spent almost $80 on apex/credits before I realized this game was going to fail. So I paid $230 to play the game for 2 months on the live server plus a few months on Alpha. Which is why I feel so burnt. I'm dumb for not realizing what I was doing. Ouch. That's quite a few full priced games or even any other MMO + a year of subscription. I'm sorry you got burned like that.

you get to see that goons that melt down over fishing are less pathetic than the goons that take drugs that consistently cause them to poo poo all overthemselves, and way less pathetic than the friends of those goons who literally bathe the poo poo off of them when that happens also a guy was on a bunch of illegal drugs in addition to legal ones, passed out in his car in 104 degree weather, died, and his wife was asking TCC the proper way to take the drugs that had just killed her husband and also how to make that pesky insurance agency pay out

sword_man.xmas posted:i never make bad mmo purchasing decisions *camera slowly pans to warhammer online collector's edition* I played WAR too, however I bought the standard edition for it so the sting wasn't as bad when it poo poo the bed. Thankfully ArcheAge and SWTOR are the only MMOs that I got suckered into dropping $150 on, however the $50-60 each for the other dozen failures I've experienced add up. I avoided Wildstar somehow.

The best part about TSW was going back and doing investigation missions with a friend who hadn't done them yet and just being a smug gently caress over mumble because it's hard to not sound smug when you really do know the answer but don't want to tell them. Except for the emoting thing in the kingsmouth sewers, I wasn't gonna put him through figuring out that poo poo. A gentle nudge with a "you know some things in this game are actually triggered by emotes, it's weird" felt like a good thing to do at that point.

Grim is the server goons rolled on at launch, may as well go with that in case other goons decide they want to play and bring an older character with a new build.

The Secret World is a genuinely interesting game. It's got some of my favorite characters in MMOs (Saïd, pretty much everyone in the Innsmouth Academy), but if you don't build your character right or have someone to play with it drags really bad in Blue Mountain and later zones. I pretty much gave up once I got to the second Egypt zone because I just didn't care about any of the characters there and it's an annoyingly huge zone with very little interesting sights.

Once you're at a certain QL, I want to say 7-8 across the board, you should just not go there anymore and go to transylvania because it gets amazing again.

Confirming that Transylvania is super fun. That said, I for one kinda liked the Middle Eastern warzone feel to Egypt. TSW is worthwhile because like other B2P games, you can put the game down with zero regret or obligation.

Scorched Desert is actually pretty rad, it was basically this big all-out brawl between Filth monsters, insane sun god cultists and the local population who were trying to just not get sacrificed or eaten by monsters. City of the Sun God is the one that everyone hates because it's just "help the ghost of this dead Egyptian god, now help the ghost of THIS dead Egyptian god" ad infinitum.

I'm not sure I like the sound of that; seems like you're role-playing as ISIS....... oh and a faction of handsome korean dudes and cat people per usual And it looks like it has a similar skill system, with Combos and mix-n-match classes. So far so good.
