    I always feel bad when I see how excited people are returning only to realize the game is a hollow shell of its former self a week later.

    i know, but .....: MUCH better than nothing and all other " MMO`s" :D
    ..and the most important thing are my friends...
    My dudes who remembered me and now we can have a funny time together....
    honestly its a little bit like coming home hoping that the new owner of EQ" dont shut down the game and will realize that this game is woth spending some money and time for it.
    Its only a little piece of hope... :rolleyes:

    Sooo.... 6 1/2 hours of short notice downtime, that was extended an hour.... and now extended two more hours?

    Remind me again, what was Feldon banned for? Oh yeah, calling out EQ2's shitty infrastructure. Huh. How 'bout that.....

    i never understood Feldons ban. Its such an idiotic decision....
    "Theybreak" lost so much support with that decision..

    Eleven downtimes in 43 days. Even if it was only a single hour per incident (it's not), that's less than two 9's reliability.

    I didn't even know about this until it was over and having just got up to date on the OF I haven't seen a single post screaming "waaaaah! why can't I login?" despite the extended period involved. Not one, nada, zip. Time was when the boards would have been flooded with whining during an episode like that, now they're deader than the proverbial dodo. But it's okay. #blessed tells us it's because it's spring, and the end of lockdown and everybody is out prancing in the park ... #deluded.

    I've held the opinion for years that the forums for a game are generally a reliable indication of the health of the game, or at least the game's community. You might need to look at the top 2 or 3 other related sites like sub-reddits, crafting or gear resources, fan sites, etc. But, almost always from my experience, if there are dead or toxic official forums then so is the game.

    People on the OF didn't appreciate it when I pointed this out even 5 or so years ago.

    Finished up my shots on the 8th and as a T1 Diabetic who lost 3 other T1 Diabetic friends to Covid-19 I'm breathing easier now.

    Meanwhile in Guildwars 2, server downtimes the past 4 years I been playing:

    may 11 2020

    That's it, one downtime where you couldn't log in and play in the past 4 years. Might be even longer but I cannot find any info from before I started to play.

    Edit: As a compensation for the 6hour downtime, we got a free mount skin (worth 1200 gems) and extra 400 gems.

    Edit2: Before anyone ask "don't they ever patch?". Yes, they do every week. But they dont take down the servers, they just run two different version of the game. So when they patch you get a message in game "new patch avalible, your client will close in 2 hours". So you can finish whatever you were doing before closing and repopen the client, download the patch and then login and continue were you left off.

    A member posted this on the EQ2 OF in response to an inquiry about the current state of the game and I thought it was a very honest and well phrased assessment:

    The current "endgame" is a weird amalgamation of pain and suffering designed to milk money out of people who can't let go, and the "mechanics" dev doesn't play the game so it leads to a lot of o_O moments and years of stagnating issues that are ignored. I would pass unless you just want to level lock and explore old quests and areas, in which case there is years of quests to do, but you better like soloing. It already hasn't gotten "good dev support" for years, as to how long it will be around... that's up to the whales I guess ;)
