That would be an accurate representation of the game though. Perhaps if they want interesting creators... they could modernize the game? Other content ideas that would get zero views: * Camping Venril Sathir's remains * Farming 10,000 tradeskill items by hand * Waiting for complete heal to...

Haven't looked recently, but UI/general clunkiness was always Turbine's weak spot on all their games (AC, AC2, Lotro, DDO). They were super good at building worlds, fully top tier there, but the game was always a bit awkward to play.

Sunk cost. Doesn't mean abandoning it is the wrong decision. Switching to Unreal/Unity etc., means they can hire people that at least already know some of the engine, shortening the learning curve, and depending how aggressively they use it / avoid locking to a specific engine version, get...

While solving this issue might be fun if you want - a better long run solution might be buying or farming summon items for each dude. For example, the Vex Thal food/drink items. This way they'll have their stuff even if you change your group and the mage is no longer around.

I don't use kissassist, so I can't give you details on how to do this... but you could use dannet to set a variable in the relevant clients script with the ID of the npc you want them to engage. The slightly modified kissassist script on the out-of-group characters would check if that variable...

So your choice is mage vs. monk? Does your monk die often from rampage/aggro? If so, maybe monk, for the defensive AAs? (I'm assuming the mage is generally sitting far from away from your tank to avoid immediate aggro.)

Time to reinstall Brütal Legend.

If you don't end up using one of the premade packages such as kissassist (which you should look at anyways for ideas), follow is pretty easy to do in your own scripts by calculating the distance from your leader and if greater than whatever number, use the /nav function to go to them.

It's easy to get enough redcents from posting 1-2 decent comments a month. It's seriously not a burden at all. I mean, you have 280 (5 months worth) just from asking questions and giving the admins grief over the past week. Maybe take a nap and come back refreshed? The RG build is free for...

Ignore my original vanilla characters before I quit the first time.... later, during Velious, I was playing enchanter main, and it was boring at raid level (tash, die, repeat). So I traded an orb of the infinite void for a ranger with epic... and after getting the whole guild to petition to...

Note that some classes can be effective without an ongoing sub, although you will need to pop one krono or pay for a month to get them AAs once they're leveled up. Generally, this is dps - your tanks need subs so they can use better gear. (If you're way below current content, then your tanks can...

I think they should do all that for EQ live for sure. But a new game, and especially if their claim is "modern game systems," they should be dropping all the tedious stuff that resulted in people creating MQ in the first place. A lot of the QoL/UI stuff that MQ/RG etc., does is baseline in most...

It could mean microtransactions, but doesn't have to. That said, EQ already has them, although they're mostly cosmetic/qol. It could mean tighter game loop, faster gameplay, and so on. (e.g., Genshin Impact, while not strictly an MMO, has a 15-20 minute daily login time, which is too short for...

Are you doing personal networking? A large percentage of jobs get "filtered" by having a resume emailed directly to HR by someone at the company and/or just never get posted. Check with your school/professional/whatever friends that are local to see what's up in their companies. Don't ask for...

Friends was a great option in 1999 or whatever. They're too unreliable now. If I want to do XYZ content, and I have a 90 minute window, I need to play NOW. Thus this community keeps growing as EQ, and its players, ages.
