Lots of VP raids these days and there was a kick-ass event for the one year anniversary where we got to play in Plane of Justice for a month with all kinds of fun loot. Raids are instances now, with open world raids still around as well. So there’s none of that P99 FTE sweat going on. Basically, if you raid, you’ll get gear. No bottle necks for epics anymore.

Most of us are ready for Velius, but having fun.

I stream and play Quarm exclusively. Best balance of nostalgia and community. <3

I stream a 25-year-old MMO, EverQuest, about 8 hours a week and lots of viewers just want to live vicariously through my moment remembering when they were doing it themselves without committing 500-1,000 hours to level a character.

I also watch other people play other class types of endgame content to do the same.

I’m not the most engaging streamer, but I enjoy answering questions to my 2-10 viewers. I also enjoy when another streamer answers my own questions.

I don’t understand watching streamers with 4,000 viewers spamming kewk emojis though.

My most recent experience with that was Manor Lords, the steep learning curve was one thing, the inability to mine some resources due to game breaking bugs though…

Basically a fancy version of Scorched Earth, with worms.

o1 preview is insane really, it even corrects you when you ask a question poorly, or rather, it talks around your mistakes.

That beach gives me extreme anxiety.

They’ll have nine months of Kunark, nine of Velious, same with Luclin, then about two years from now, PoP.

I just didn’t like the P99 stale endgame and first to engage mechanics for gear. Not to mention, if you started after 2019 you never got a chance to wake the Sleeper.

Project Quarm just launched Kunark this month and will go all the way to Planes of Power! Single box only and very active development team!

Project 1999 is forever locked in Velious with no plans to ever launch a new server.

I recently tried it on Deck and it’s rough, but I think a lot of people only have a deck as an option to play it, so they use what they have. It’s a fun game, so it makes sense. If you have the option to play on a PC, it’s not worth using your steam deck though.

Prior to WoW a much better MMO, EverQuest, was already out. There’s a reboot server that’s about to launch the second expansion on the 1st that’s free to play run by enthusiasts. It’s called Project Quarm and it’s easy to get going.

I just did that with the Manor Lords the city builder. Looked super cool, was way way too steep of a learning curve and very slow for me, so I never went back. If I don’t see a game getting more fun or accessible after ten hours, I’ll never touch it again. Basically did this for Rust, Ark, Pal World, and Zomboid most recently.

I’m at least $200 of this statistic, now do the people who played for less than ten hours. I’d be like $1,000.

It’s like they don’t like us using the mechanics in the game…

LMAO!! Thank you! I’ve got them blocked but the fact they’re even voting me down is silly. It wasn’t even an insult because if I was even mentioning “ricing” it was the better of two options.

Same here, but they tried to claim I called a Steam Deck a “Rice Burner” as a racist insult when I randomly chose “rice” as the title for this meme to fill the mandatory title block.

Like, bro? Even if that was my intent, which it wasn’t even a term I had ever seen applied to a computer, it doesn’t make sense.

I’m fine with compensation, I’m not fine with the whole work once and siphon off the labor of others into eternity.

You can change the display of your username on the Web version of Lemmy and it accepts emojis.

Why the fuck do they make money 15 years after doing the work though? Build a house, you get paid for the house. Write a song? Infinite money.

That’s a bummer, I was just going to ask if it was even worth installing on the Steam Deck. Guess I’ll stick with the open world single player games and Slay The Spire.
