30.5 Days posted:Do they really have so little content? Seems like if you're making EQ style grind, you could add a remort function and it wouldn't take much content to feed the beast more or less indefinitely. Yes because they keep having to refactor everything every few months for new engine changes. The game actually has less playable content now than it did years ago. Currently playable areas: Thronefast with Goblin caves Not currently playable areas but areas where play testing has previously been shown / PA sessions took place in: Avendyr's Pass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNQXvhA95oQ&t=2179s Halnir Cave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sD5-PxulcBo Whatever this tutorial zone was supposed to be https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_ZHEi-zh_s Amberfaet https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tIqZEMCC5nA Blackrose Keep https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwEiwRLQzTU Whatever this dungeon was called https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucyu2Ib81Co Wizard Tower https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_epQH3HW-x4 PrinnySquad fucked around with this message at 10:30 on Oct 19, 2023 |

if your eq clone needs more content just make some half assed too-hard zones out of whatever assets you have lying around, might as well also clone the eq content development process as well

from the comments on this article: https://www.mmorpg.com/news/pantheo...heon-2000129177 leaked teams chat where VR fired their community manager Kilsin: And messages from discord where Kilsin started airing VR's dirty laundry:

drat, getting fired over Teams text chat after 10 years at the company? That's a new one for me. Why would anyone want to work in the games industry?

Did they seriously fire Kilsin for mentioning 247 on Reddit a week or 2 before they officially publicly announced it?

Dude is surprised his do nothing position that he has been collecting a check for is getting cut off once someone in charge of finances took a look.

Firing Kilsin is probably the only good thing they've done recently. Dude just was not a good CM or whatever he was doing at the time.

Why would you work for profit sharing but not have any kind of vesting schedule, just a handshake that if you still work here when we start making money you'll get some, probably

Just yet another reminder that this entire project was based on hopes and dreams, and a fully volunteer staffed development team to start. Also they solicited for backers to volunteer and help out and… that is how we got to today. The previous product this team put out was some kind of bible MMO game before they were recruited by Brad. To work for free, out of a garage. The old threads for this project are honestly worth a read. Especially if you gave them money without knowing about them, frankly. This has been a long but quiet fart for a long time. onesixtwo fucked around with this message at 00:13 on Oct 20, 2023 |

Cardboard Fox posted:I just don't understand. Nor nothing to copy. Lmao. You would think having the game itself you would base it on be any kind of influence, but instead, new games can't beat nor replace old MMORPG (I'm still waiting for something that really can beat prime DAoC). Same goes for Eve

that's exactly the sort of poo poo people are saying about Quarm EQ. i like that MnM is the scrappy indie holdover game until the big professional AAA indie Pantheon arrives.

At this point I assume some unknown game will happen first.

Going through all this random nonsense to prepare and step through a portal only to use a level 1 spell that deals 2 damage to a flittering bat is just so loving funny. they couldn't help but create a video that highlights exactly why old school MMO and tarkovlike are the two least compatible game types ever

https://www.pantheonmmo.com/newsletter/_2023/october/ I don't even know what to copy. the whole thing is pretty stupid lol. I liked this part a lot "On the first point, development of Pantheon is not stopping in any way, shape or form. The content that is used in 247 is the Pantheon world and game. In fact, should 247 prove to be popular with players, it could become a model for Pantheon’s PvP mode, available to all Pantheon players at any time. The estimated additional work for 247 that is not usable for Pantheon as an MMO is estimated at around 5-10%. The projects are designed to work together in tandem, symbiotically. As to the challenge of maintaining 247 alongside Pantheon: if 247 cannot bring in revenue that will allow us to add enough resources to maintain it and Pantheon as an MMO, then it will not be an avenue worth pursuing. However, if a larger audience can be reached, potential for funding increases. This is an important consideration."

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgDiMF_qXrw Even their community manager is struggling to ask the questions in a way that doesn't have them come off sounding like this poo poo is all about to implode on them. At this point it's actually kind of hilarious that they some how managed to take "realistic down to earth old style MMORPG" and flip it into a "Cartoony fortnight kiddy battle royale"

Why did Garriott have to do the blood thing? He was rich as gently caress from the NCSoft debacle.

The way rich people get rich and stay that way now a days is by spending other peoples money. They never let a dime of their own go regardless of how good the idea they are promoting is.
