This is the Vault forum. On a toxic scale of "Lithium Ion Batteries" to "Chernobyl", we rate as a "Guiyu, China".

I <3 Gisty. Easily one of the top 5 players I've ever run with, but far more importantly, a genuine person and easy friend.

As an unapologetic whale, I ptw my way to super stardom on live servers, but still appreciate the modest heroic leveling experience of running water works for the 10,000th time on HC. I do love the game, in all of its frustrating dysfunction, but I'm here for my peeps.

If I lose enough of my circle, the primary reason I log in to run shit in the first place, I'll happily migrate to a worse game with less lag just to complain how shit the game is with my friends.

For you small-dicked haters, light yourselves on fire; no one gives a shit about you losers anyway.

What game would you go to? I'm constantly on the lookout for a DDO replacement.

Gunga wrote on Apr 5^th, 2021 at 5:13pm:


That is generally how it goes, isn't it? lol!

Personally I mostly just want A. a fantasy setting(fuck star wars) and B. another reincarnation-style system. Sadly I haven't found both of those in one package yet.

Hard to find good MMO's without the fetch/kill/courier quest mechanic ad nauseum.

And with build variety depth.

And with active combat.

If I could find one with those 3 things, I would give it a try for sure.

And if they ever make a Dragonlance setting game, they can just shut the fuck up and take my money.

Which is why I don't play HCL.

Even DDO is not without examples of this mechanic. Unless you're playing some kind of lobby game, its pretty much inescapable.

somenewnoob wrote on Apr 5^th, 2021 at 6:40pm:


Yeah. That is SUPER hard to find sadly. The real problem is fucking WoW. Thanks to fucking WoW, every single game that's come out since(with the exception of niche games like DDO) has heavily featured PvP as the primary selling point. PvP eats build depth and variety for breakfast. We need all the esports 'tards to get the fuck over themselves so we can start to see none-PvP games again.

Probably never going to happen -_-

Whats your definition of "active"? I like DDO's twitch-style combat a hell of a lot. Have tried out a couple of "action" MMOs and hated every single fucking second of it. Unfortunately like PvP, "action" MMOs have also become the norm(despite, somehow, WoW not being an "action" MMO, but WoW doesn't have twitch either).

Keep me posted if you find it.

God fucking damnit. Lol. Guess I know what I'm reinstalling this weekend. I really could not "get into" it but the visuals really spoke to me.

This.
SSG is not even able to go for customer satisfaction. How could they, if they screw up the most simple things? You can only go for satisfaction, if you maintain some sort of quality.
They screw up a HCL cosmetic because they mirror 1 side for fucks sake and the IV becomes a VI!
I wonder sometimes how some of them cross the street in the morning.

What if my line isn't straight?  (asking for a friend)

Furthermore DeLarge is absolutely correct; you either accept DDO as it is or quit. I chose the latter. What other motives you attach to my post are purely your own.

You won’t get an argument from me. They could probably raise enough money for DDO 2 if they pitched it to us.
