The only issue I see here is that Secrets is a ****** and well... most of the HQ either uses Linux or emulators, so we're all using software made by ********.

I think I got my neet zoomer friend addicted to the game. He's probably going to outlevel us all. @Boontaker said the game was **** and bailed. I found it amusing that all of the reasons that he listed for why he didn't like the game are the reasons that everyone else likes it.

Just learned that you can't save your spell gems. You have to place them all manually, every time, after you die =(

My exact words were "this game is wack". I didn't say it was ****, what I meant by this statement was, if you were to convince a monkey to sit in front of a PC and gave that monkey a banana for every hour it pressed 3 buttons it would eventually "beat" the game.

Now that's not completely true, its just mostly true. A FEW classes are playing a very different game in everquest. A bard for example gets multiple tools to play with and can do things such as aoe farming, I would probably enjoy doing stuff like that. I may even make a bard and try it.

The game is either a turn off your brain and spend hours watching your low poly sprite attack other low poly sprites. Or play a complicated class and spend your time being a chaperone for monkeys.

If the monkeys were entertaining to be around this would be fine, but we all know what the average monkey is like these days. Tribalistic group thinkers who play games like EQ to escape the reality of "ITS THE ****" and evil is real. ******** being the keepers of the keys for games like this are exhibit A for the truth of this statement.

The same monkey that can beat EQ couldn't beat colony ship. I'm not shilling that game, it's just a good example.

From what I gather most of the people on this server are absolute nutters and every chat is on permanent /snoop by the GMs.

The WoW server I played on didn't do anything about an ERP guild that openly advertised until proof was presented that they were pretending to be children in guild chat.
https://www.theregister.com/2007/09/18/ ... lay_guild/

This guild was around for a very long time prior to that, fyi.

No, at this point you stop apologizing for your awesome hobby. Rusty's point is absolutely valid here. I mean, it's just one guy's comment, I don't know the particulars, but:

https://www.firesofheaven.org/threads/p ... st-4600435

Whether that guy is shitposting or not seems like an essential question for anyone wanting to play on this server.

Honestly, this guy comes across as a misanthropic troll:
I've been calling people gaylords all week and nothing has happened to me
https://www.firesofheaven.org/threads/p ... st-4599977

I'm not at all pleased that a ****** is running this thing, but I've known a few ******** like SMA etc. who were not vicious psychos, like Ted.

I don't know, I'm on the fence at this point. It's almost always the case with these private servers that you're at the mercy of the people in charge. Sometimes that's not the admins, but the guild leaders. That means lots of power politics. If this Secrets fellow is any kind of ****** justice warrior then playing here is like building a castle on quicksand; it's just a matter of time. If the guilds are run by militant homos, it's the same problem. I don't know, so far I've been impressed with the quality of people here...

Everything after Velious is decline.

FYI the server code is open source. It's not like someone based can't run their own server.

Ok...........I just watched this and....come on now. This is it? This is one of the greatest MMOS ever? Bro.....

Be honest, is everyone who plays EQ just jacking off on monitor 2 the entire time they are "playing"?

The guy spends 6 mins AUTO ATTACKING and swapping his jewelry around, he does this for 6 ******* minutes

You could very well be right, but after installing and playing it ... the game itself is pretty great. Chat is amusing and I haven't met or seen any woke ****. I'm sure there are a few, but chat appears to be free of the usual SJW poison.

I told him about it last night.

I will take EQ's combat over any tab target mmo that has turned their melee combat into a rhythm game, such as wow or ff14. Either do EQ combat or full on action combat like DCUO. Anything in-between is garbage.

Just wait until Monsters & Memories comes out. I guarantee almost the entire forum will be playing. I actually only found out about this server because one of the MnM devs is playing.
