Reading RoZs boards. And discord.

[Tassador]

RoZ 2.0 will have a player base of 40ish by month 2. And the majority of unique players will casual their way out the door by week 3. I’ll be here for news on RoZ 3.0.

[HippoNipple]

Maybe it will. 1.0 had over 100 players 4-6 months in. Red99 had about 10 players 6 months in. We will see.

[Tassador]

Wow

RoZ was a lot of fun and offered a decent sandbox while it lasted. In the end the project management is the real issue; Renly is so thirsty for population that he'll allow anything to transpire.

The immersion fell apart for me when people started donating $20 to get character changes, name changes, race changes, unbanned etc. If you don't have $20, no big deal, you can turn VP into a Brony playhouse and attack people from beneath the world and get unbanned as long as you submit a shirtless selfie.

There became no lasting penalty for players banned/suspended for stuff as blatant as scripts and zone file changes. Checkraise would have had a hell of a successful campaign in elf court on RoZ had he played.

The devs shilling and pandering to the underdogs was probably for the best in hindsight; they just got played and were too heavy handed in their implementation. There was no malice in the original efforts but there was heavy trolling in the aftermath.

Key word is in moderation, its everquest and its 2019.

Population got down to single digits during classic before Kunark. I'm not exaggerating. I'm not sure why you would take offence to that.

[Tassador]

Single digits classic way better than RoZ at peak. Pop rejuvenated in kunark and was hitting legit 300 in velious. RoZ in a year has you and three kids talking about how cool it is to be on a custom shit box.

Really hope for you all sake actuall pvp goes down and people play this time. Boxing should have consequences and three box off the go is fucking newb quest man.

[shokar]

no need to play dumb ass fucking elf court bullshit on RoZ. You can dispense as much justice as you see fit with your cleric alt.

To get the same results on Dead99 you have to wait 3-6 months and then hope Sirken hasnt smoked himself retarded the day he opens your petition, and then maybe he punishes your tormentor. (By the way if your train in retaliation you get banned too)

Anyone who is against legal training in everquest PVP is mentally deficient.

I speak with Brad regularly and he said that RoZ is carrying on his vision in the spirit of Everquest.

[hatelore]

100% agree. RoZ pvp is solid. No rules other than outright cheating was bradicus’s vision.
