vanguard was actually fun when things worked, it was just all the half completed areas and game breaking bugs that ruined it

like at one point the game had areas that were finished and somewhat polished and doing all the quests and pve poo poo there was a blast but if you tried doing content that was long ago written off gl

the only niche mmo that has done well in recent years i can think of is project gorgon and that's because 2 people are making it so they could afford to give it away for over a year until enough people got into it through word of mouth that the audience was there for the very economic buy-to-play model official release

like people have said chances are the development costs for pantheon are going to be too high for the likely playerbase it'll attract at launch

How loving hard is it to make a successor to Everquest it was a game made in the Stone Ages. These developers have the mental disabilities.

they did, it's called wow and it took the worst things from eq and ditched the best parts

Lol people still think this stupid poo poo

ya it's not like they hired eq raiders to help design the game and admitted they got the idea for wow while playing eq and thought we could build a game like this ourselves

oh wait all that stuff did happen, wow is just blizzard eq

I think he's talking about the stupid bit where you said "wow took the worst parts of eq and forgot the best parts"

because the best parts of EQ were not where you camped in one room of a dungeon for 6 hours grinding exp and hoping an item dropped

the best parts of eq were the world building, immersion and flavor skill stuff

the worst part was raiding

I once thought Garriott and McQuaid were essentially fighting for the direction of what's left of the MMO industry.

It's funny to see how both have failed, but at least Garriott tried got something that sort of looks like a game out the door.

he also fleeced way more nerds

not to mention he was buying assets off the unity store cheap, turning them around and selling them to idiots for a stupid amount, if you are going to grift do it right

EQ didn't get the WoW-like camera until somewhere between 2002-2006.

Playing third person was really hard when the camera tracked oddly like an early N64 game when they weren't really sure how to deal with cameras and gave them their own button.

it was definitely a must to slap F9 until you got an optimal butt scratching viewport when standing around trading though.

i started playing eq in 99 and was one of the people that got hosed with a super late ruins of kunark boxed delivery and i stand by my original post
