I reinstall this every October to scratch the seasonal horror itch, and I finally finished South Africa a few nights ago. I'm sad because it looks like FunCom is never going to get us to Congo. This isn't the kind of game that I'd bother grinding endgame content in. Without the story, it's pretty much done.  I was left with a mission called "Dead Drop", which is apparently a repeatable daily. Are they trying to tell us something?

The 99 can PBR reminded me of how the quantum brace was made by a redneck in a scrapyard and has a PBR can in the default skin. I miss aux weapons

https://investors.funcom.com/funcom-se-board-recommends-voluntary-cash-offer-from-tencent-to-acquire-all-shares-in-funcom/ Tencent offered, and board recommends to accept the offer to buy all 77 Mil shares of Funcom for $1.90 per share (25% or so bump over previously traded share price) Tencent already owned about 22 Mil shares. Presumably that would be good thing for this game.

Anybody else experience issues where the game just will not launch at all? If I try to launch the DX11 client Steam pitches a fit about the game trying to launch with optional parameters, and when I click okay it just opens the launcher again and then stops responding. The DX9 client acts like it's trying to launch the game, but it just sits there for a few minutes before also going unresponsive.

I'm not expecting TSW: The MMO to ever get another proper update again, though you never know I guess. Moons of Madness was pretty fantastic and anyone who hasn't played it through but likes TSW really needs to do so. Please do it blind with no guides etc, in fact do zero research on the game before playing. I'd quite like more of that, basically. Not sure how Tencent will direct the future of their newly aquired IPs but the fact they won't vanish and fade into obscurity is welcome in itself. I think the whole "filth" thing might get around the bans on ghosts etc in Chinese horror so hopefully we see some more creativity on that front.

That runs counter to what the horror games thread had to say about it when I asked the other day. Most goons over there said "forgettable" but this one elaboratedJudgement posted:I actually finished Moons of Madness, and I'd rate it as pretty much the platonic ideal of "Eh it's okay." It's a pretty slow paced walking simulator with some jump scares and a few really tedious puzzles, and it does have some pretty good set piece moments, but overall it wasn't anything special.

It had some good scenes surrounded by a lot of weirdly paced padding, and due to budget or design constraints it never quite gets as weird or as horrifying as you might hope. So I guess in a way it was at least faithful to The Secret World in those regards.

Valentine's event tomorrow, not a huge amount of stuff but there's a mission with a boss in it that scales based on level/group size: https://forums.funcom.com/t/rosenbrawl-open-week-feb-12-feb-19/105712/2

Isn't that brawl area normally invite only from players that have a certain item with a long cooldown? If that's what I'm thinking of then this is cool if it lets all players enter. Not sure why they ever added a limited access, hard to get thing to such a dead game.

Played through the event content. You can 100% it, achievements included, in two days of 15-20 mins each. Maybe could stretch it to an hour's worth of content. I did enjoy it though even if it's brief, and it's free. It's also a good opportunity if you've never done Rosenbrawl and want to get those (non-event) achievements or pets because it's actually populated at the moment.

It sounded at one point like the Congo content was halfway finished. I wonder if the new owners will think it's profitable to finish.

I doubt the new owners give much of a gently caress either way? You buy a company because you're interested in the money it makes, not the games  Personally, I think if story content was worth the investment we'd have seen more of it by now.

Teeniest bit of new "content" in this equinox event: new outfit and new agent. The latest financial report said something about keeping a trickle of content that was commensurate to the amount of revenue earned in their older games.

I would have literally kept playing the game if it wasn't for the atrocious reboot. Best MMO I ever played until then.

Have they even finished putting in the remaining content from before the relaunch? Aux weapons, post-release missions, etc? I played the game at release but stopped before most of the content packs, and when I got back in for Legends I was disappointed to see a bunch of stuff was apparently missing but assumed it was coming eventually.

SW is a really good example of wasted potential, and I'll always be bitter about it Meanwhile, through my casual playing, I've finally unlocked all the passive skills. I'm guessing there's nothing else to spend new skill points on?

Dark Agartha costs AP/SP to get in but if you do it before you've unlocked the extra health from all the ability capstones you're at a disadvantage and you're increasing the time it takes to finish the capstones (which takes forever to begin with)

At launch there was nothing else to spend AP/SP on so they just stuck a massive, largely pointless grind on the end of the ability tree, which I guess was a smart move because the very second people unlocked it all they started complaining about not having anything else to spend points on. Not taking it out when they added DA was a really dumb move though, but I guess they didn't want to deal with a ton of complaints about how new players wouldn't have to grind as much as we did at launch

Weapons no, missions yes. There is even a bit of stuff that wasnt in tsw. Tokyo lair and Congo.

Strangely, Age of Conan is getting a tiny bit of new content (about on par with SWL's Stonehenge scenario) which is surprising considering it was in maintenance mode long before SWL.
