So I still play Everquest.

Anyone else?

There's still servers dedicated to that game?!!

I played for about 2 months about 15 years ago.

I learned I have an addictive personality and is the primary reason I don’t play mmos.

Same here but I found a balance hard as it may be.

 

[IrishBlooded]

Yes.

I played way back when it started back before WoW. Had one of the top 5 clerics on the server back when Tower of Ro was just coming out.

I left playing it for years and years (wife threatened me with divorce if I didn't) and now just log on to mess around.

You can have a 'free' account and get that leveled up, and unless you are looking to do end game stuff you don't really need to pay.

I played it for a couple hours a long time ago. It was insanely slow getting around. I got stuck under a bridge or some shit and kept asking for help. Finally gave up.

After checking with a friend, it turned out I had crouch enabled.

I played it on release for a few years. Pretty solid game, and I think even today the graphics still stand up well. I made the jump to WOW back in 2004, and it is my main MMO. I hate what Activision is doing to the game and Blizzard, so I might be tapping out soon and looking for a new fix.

BTW - if you like card based game similar to Darkest Dungeon, Steam has Monster Slayer for cheap. I picked it up and can't put it down.

I hear Compuserve hosts a few. Need a 2400 baud modem or greater though.

I played the original UO way back when... Only coop experiences I ever had was standing on a bridge fishing with another player (I shit you not).

Started building the character, I think I accidentally stole something or took a swing at something I wasn't supposed to, got labelled as "evil" and couldn't take three steps out of town without being set upon and killed...

Kinda soured me on MMORPGs.

I was one of the first 200 people to ever play Runequest, which was pretty similar to UO I believe. You could decide at start up to be a pvp player or not. And then you were allowed to change your mind 2 times ever. I started the character, wondered what that button did, clicked it twice and was stuck as full time open world pvp. Anytime you ever saw another player show up on your screen you knew you were getting ganked. No co-op ever.
