My concern (in general, at no one particularly here) is that the devs are in way over their heads at this point, and we will end up with a game...
If they have 1000 PvP people logged in at the same time, the game is a grand-slam homerun beyond any rational person's wildest expectations. The...
You mean most players left Felucca with Trammel, not UO. The game population was much higher during Renaissance than at any time previously. It's...
Raph Koster explained one time why those sorts of bifurcations don't work: even most of the people who would be wolves in a unified community...
Psychlo, You seem to assume that your reasons for playing (competition, and raw skill progression) are the only valid reasons that anyone can...
I too was skeptical of this combat system, but never said anything because, duh, I hadn't seen it in action. Now that I have, I no longer am...
I'm not mad at all man, speak up if you have something to say! <3
It was the only game there was. Times were entirely different and there are lots of games now, which precisely is why early UO will never happen...
You're right; they will have areas where people choose to pvp. CHOOSE to pvp, as you say. In early UO, there was no choice for the victim, and...
It also is a bad (and demonstrably false) assumption to think that people who played UO pre-Renaissance agree with you, Lord Scooby--obviously,...
You must not have been there, then. http://looterslair.com/uo-episodes/neutral-galad/never-wear-valorite-in-deceit/...
Clue: Millions of people play online games and engage in other social activities with no thought of, or inclination to, PvP. Your most basic...
I get it. I just find it a source of moderate amusement that the guy who starts this thread by complaining about the devs' supposed catering to...
It is definitive and factual that this will not exist in SotA. Non-consensual PvP is not, has never been, and will not be a feature of this game....
Nothing. I have some friends playing Wildstar now, but I don't like space games, so I laid out of that one. I checked out Archeage and decided...
Not gonna happen--at least, we'd better hope not. 2014 is half done and we don't know anything about combat even.
That's funny, because when my pal was trying to get me to play UO, I only played single-player games like the Ultimas and Doom and so on. I was...
Very interesting indeed. They were all pretty much flying blind, and figuring it out as they went. So many lessons learned, by gamers and...
I hope they have a good fishing system. My main was a fisherman in UO and that will certainly be what I play again, game permitting.
That's the truest thing I have ever read on any forum here. "Spiritual successor" to UO does not mean the same thing to everybody. PK'ing some...
