All the people who use to play classic EQ got old.
It's ruining modern gaming just as much as all the youth with no respect.

Apparently having kids and responsabiltes = everyone has to suffer shitty games.
And apparently youth with their mobile instant satisfaction mentality = everyone has to suffer shitty games.

Welcome to the future, this is why no one can have nice things. This is also why micro-transaction became a thing.

Also do we really need a 5th+ thread about agnarr?

I greatly question the longevity of the server - Having said that I will probably box a Druid and Beastlord during Lucilin just to give it a test drive

A lot of things about agnarr are appealing, and a lot of things make it sound like a dumpster fire.

I too question the longevity of the server

I noticed that the two latest TLP servers are the two with the highest population over on live... but does anyone have an idea of what that population is approximately?

I love p99's atmosphere because even if there's only 700-800 on, they're all over and leveling and a mix of types of players. I worry that live servers are too segregated into guilds and too dead if you're just a casual player on here or there looking to have fun instead of running with a scheduled group.

i feel like this is the best answer anyone can expect to see about agnarr. gives you the full advantage of enjoying summer outdoors. join where p99 leaves off and beat your cakes a little to luclin and pop raids. don't really need to worry about getting a guise when you can instance your own ocean of tears and just do seafuries and get one from the kings court casino. and as far as longevity obviously none of the niche sandboxes will survive if pantheon can live up to even half of the expectation. best way to summarize it is a mushroom trip once you realize it's just a ride then you gotta quit fighting it and enjoy it.

Lol you cant instance your own OoT. It requires certain x number of people then a time limit to open a 2nd instace of a zone....that is if oot CAN be picked.

I think some of y'all are just scared to pay a monthly fee bcoz you'd not have to eat for one day a month to pay it.

P99 has so much no classic shit on it too. I think Agnarr is going to be a raging sucess for Daybreak and will eat atleast 30-40% of p99's pop.

Who doesnt want want an instance version of PoP? And find a guild that raids according to your schedule so you can have a life while seeing content you didnt get to see back in the day.

Instanced raiding means guilds can raid at 7-10pm 4 days a week and enjoy eq while playing with their kids. Not this lame FTE foot races at 3am with batphones and eyebags.

Sorry neckbeard and no lifers, this server takes away from what you value: 18 hour eq sessions to FTE Gozzrem and have a bunch of other no lifers pat you on the back for snagging it.

I've been trying to understand who Agnarr appeals to. Best I can come up with is for people who want to do VT/PoP before Pantheon without that late comer feeling that Phinny had where all the loot councils were already formed and every back door plan was already in place pre kunark.
Pretty much answered your own question.

For me it will be a re visit to Luclin and Pop before Pantheon.

Who wants to play velious for the next 10 years anyhow? It is a horrendous attempt at raiding for an xpac. Luclin and PoP were the polishing of the raid scene for classic eq.

The fact it is instanced to makes it even more appealing. Can set a regulated eq time to play and raid and not have to get arse sores just to rehash eq.

If you want to have fun playing modern EQ -- This is all Agnarr is. I would just do a non-PoP locked box, but it doesn't sound fun (maybe after I get used to new content). It's not some mission to recapture the exact classicness of EQ. It's just a game like classic EQ with modern QoL improvements and character buffs.
