I heard the population isnt even reaching cap after luclin which is crazy considering i was expecting thousands of players. Daybreak neutering the server must have hurt the potential population

they were rarely hitting cap before the lawsuit aside from expac launches as is, the cap was an odd stipulation from darkpaw lames

Finding a group in the 40s is getting quite difficult for a server of its online population. Everyone's 60 and hammering AAs or rolling alts and redoing Unrest again and again.

That said I asked for a port in the not-classic ports global channel the other day and got 5 replies in a few seconds. Said yes to the first one, apologized in the ports channel and said I got one with (1st one name)... then one of the others turned up anyway just hoping.

No wonder <Dial A Port> lost the market [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Companies change over time. It wasn't the same people working on Luclin/PoP and the game kept becoming more artificial as time went on, because the company wasn't focused on trying to improve the initial flaws and evolve the game in such a way that it could truly be an online D&D game with graphics, as it was meant to be. Instead they were just trying to push out more static content for the constantly growing player base.

Luclin/PoP show the evil corporatization of a product, where there's little/no concern for the well being of an ecosystem or the purpose something was meant to have, only a concern about how to keep making more money in the moment. Similar to how companies pump out unhealthy food, which consumers buy because they don't know any better or because they don't have other options. People need to fill their stomach with something, so it allows the consumers to be exploited and the system to not improve. Modern MMORPG's are centered around providing basic dopamine hits, rather than a higher degree of intellectual or creative or emotional stimulation, and supporting those bad games feeds into the proliferation of them, detracting from the progress of superior options.
What a great evil that was my friend. Im glad we all seemed to have survived the Luclin Holocaust somehow. Those of us over a certain age anyways [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Wrong expack I think you inquired about, Quarm is the final boss of the B Time Dimension of the PoP expack. Hope this helps you my friend [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Hi Raj!

I believe our pal C may be joking that the server is named after the PoP expac box, yet the server has had it’s final expansion revised to SoL.

Hi JimJam, is this really true? Or are you saying the the Luclin is the current final expack or that this Quorm server is never to be reaching the Time dimension or any other Planes now?? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Forgive me my friend for not knowing these things, I have not been looking into Everquest for some time
