IMO not everyone deserves to see endgame content in a game. If you cant make it to the boss in your guild. Might think about helping your guild get better so you can get there or go play a bottlefed game where anyone with 2iq and 1 finger can kill the last boss in the game. goodbye and goodluck

I'm pretty sure EQ classic wasn't designed to be hardcore difficult either.

No instances. That's one of the reasons lots of us play here instead of WoW in the first place.

Instances are rather contrary to the overall design of EQ which puts the MMO part before the RPG part - instances make sense from a gameplay standpoint but not so much for that 'all players in one world' feel.

As an aside though:

This makes me scratch my head. Did you kill C'thun or Kil'Jaden during their relevant eras? Do you think even average players managed to do?

Instancing has nothing to do with difficulty, except in cases where the actual content is easy and the only challenge revolves around there not being enough of it for everyone. You are free to like either design, but there is no need to insult others due to their preference.

Uh, until this?:

The whole expansion was a series of instances.

I thought it would be taken as read that I mean 'classic' EQ on these forums [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Edit: Expanding on this - It seems many of the features that came in after Velious which people rail most strongly against are those which detract from the aforementioned 'one huge world' feeling and those which cut out some social interaction, such as Nexus/PoK for automated transport instant, Bazzar for automated selling. One could argue that LDoN took that to another level.

Quit confusing Groz and let's go make a group!

Classic is a player assigned term, when you reference the game you have to be more specific IMO.

This sounds really stupid.
