I've had a bunch of the tracks in my library for ages. Backyard Jazz and Omni 1 Inner Sanctum are two of the most evocative for me. I feel similarly attached to the music from EvE Online.

Forget your RoboCoX or your StickyCoX or your EvilCoX, MY CoX has Blinking Bewbs!

WHY IS THIS GAME DEAD?!

I still remember the first time I heard Backyard Jazz, it was amazing. Too bad it was the only high point whatsoever.

This shambling zombie of a game / thread will never stop. You can't kill what's already dead.

Probably easier to buy the items you need to make it? Or just kill a million mobs until one drops the macguffin you need?

Also, someone give me GAmk2... :homebrew:

Chlorine for the Gene-pool.

I mean, that should only serve to underline that money is easy to make. Any lowbie with clicksaver can get a couple of sets pr hour, or complete sets of medsuits or the Beyer CL pistols. All the old standbys are still there, and the average player is still hugely lazy.

Speaking of something else, there was tower wars this evening. Been awhile since that was a thing. Boy, pvp seems to be mostly NTs and then the rest.

I would've liked to introduce them to my chair-wielding Atrox Enforcer. :black101:

Some omni orgs seem to be doing it again. Last I checked, omni exp bonus was around 10.5%. Omni bonus was something like 0.006% for the longest time when I last played AO.

Yeah, I gets down with the homies

Nostalgia-subbed twice in the last 5 years. The last time I took my fixer from 167 to 190something. Joined an org and everything. Grinding inf missions seemed stupid and I couldn't determine what the end goal was.

The time before was kind of fun. Multiboxing an engineer, crat, trader and mp and facerolled totw and foremans up to about level 80. Gearing four characters simultaneously kind of sucks though and then losing control of your pet because your mocham wore off and what the gently caress which one is it oh we all wiped sucks. And I ran out of money. But it was fun for a while.

Reassisted Retrogression
I like to login a few times a year for a nice nostalgia hit. It's the only MMO that has ever drawn me back in at all. Thankfully it's also one of the few still operating in a classic state.

I haven't had a sub since maybe '05 or '06 though, never play long enough to justify it.

I like walking around and taking in the sights and sounds, but lort the Rubi-Ka grind is somehow worse than I remember and leveling is sooooo sloooooow compared to modern games.

I would resub if they gave me another free month at some point but I'm never giving them a cent.
