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.



Is there any other game with a reincarnation mechanic? Mmo, TT, etc...

Sadly only scammers are "selling" boxes now. But if you do want to get scammed, I know a guy.

Just for the record, I bought ten stones from Dragonborn a few days back. Fair and civil trade which went smoothly

The paperclip game has the best prestige/reincarnation mechanic I've seen.

The New Game+ idea has been around for a long time.

But for a mechanic where specifically you keep your stuff but reset to level 1 with a bonus, the only one I can think of is Kingdom of Loathing's ascension mechanic.

I made ubercompletionist on that way faster than I did on DDO. I think I got about 300 universes deep using exploits before I got permabanned(by which I mean I got bored).
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

What exploits could there be other than an autoclicker?

If you jack up the system memory during the the final phase, when its time to choose a new universe, you can click several times and get additional past lives. I got 4 on my latest run and i think got 7-9 a couple times. Autoclicker helps there, too.

The problem is they are trying to design their way out of an engineering problem when they should be fixing the engineering problem.


The engineering problem was caused by poor design. The engine wasn't built to scale all the way to 30, but they weren't able to design a functional end-game around the 20-cap.

Also, the engineering problem is beyond their ability to solve, so they are stuck doing what they can do. Which isn’t enough and it has bad side effects, but it’s their only choice right now.

If Shiradi magic spamming were popular, they’d be turning magic missile into a single proc with more damage right now too.

Daamn, this is a big thing when one of Lava Diver close his account and quit the game. I admire those guys more than Omnipresence. This makes me sad.

DDO is coming to an end in similar way as Asheron's Call Sad

Asheron's Call would still be limping along, it had a small but rich community. Turbine was completely failing to monetize what was left of the game, and I'm positive killing AC was a "fuck you" from WB to the new SSG. Someone fucked someone's wife, and AC paid for it.

Did SSG try to get the rights to AC and WB said no? I'm assuming this is during the WB departure that resulted in Turbine becoming SSG?

Because it was an original IP, WB decided to mothball it rather than sell it or license it.

One of the things that makes me laugh when people doom and gloom over DDO's license.
