Because, as Juiblex put it, the devs of P99 are recreating a game, not designing a game.

What, Jimjam is Juiblex?

Classic EverQuest is the greatest MMORPG yet made.

That's an important qualifier BTW. Yet made. Not ever made. Ever made implies it's actually good. It's not. But I have several thousand hours in it.

They only were invented originally a dirty move by a monopoly to force everyone to pay longer subscriptions without creating any content.

If I recall correctly, they were there because the original devs didn't understand math. It wasn't till EQInside (I think; whatever the packet sniffer + protocol deobfuscator thing was that showed actual XP values) came out that they were able to spreadsheet the amount of XP needed per level, figure out the formula, and show why these levels were so laborious.

..oh, and if this game was easy, you wouldn't come back and play it for as long as we do. The difficulty is what keeps us around..

Have to agree with reality here...

oh, and if this game was fast, you wouldn't come back and play it for as long as we do. The tedious time consumingness is what keeps us around because we learned that life is longer than we thought and free time is what causes trouble or insanity..

fix'd

And dont fucking argue with me that raids are difficult
You all know whats coming and can prep small groups
You all can spend thousands of plat on consumables for youtubes
Or you bring 200+ people hitting auto attack and watching a stream of choice

tedious = artificial difficulty

You might say that something tedious is difficult, for the reason that it is tedious.

It's not really difficult to walk accross the entire country, it's just very tedious.
