This is so cool to see. Reminds me back of Ultima Online days.

I thought for sure this would be Josh Strife Hayes.

Impressive nonetheless.

 

[GateofD]

honestly, it does look tempting. no popups for battlepasses

 

[Mephisto40]

Is this based on the same engine Furcadia and Dragonspires used?

It looks incredibly similar

 

[Spyxos]

What a great video. It reminds me of my first MMO experience.

 

[Trunx81]

I´ve seen this thread before?

 

[Gaiff]

I´ve seen this thread before?

There was another one for the game There a few months before. I think it inspired this one.

Furries have been around for a long time

 

[Generic]

This was my first MMORPG.

I remember seeing the part 1 video a while back after it popped up as a suggestion for me. Glad to hear that video led to a revival in the game. It must be quite a surreal experience for the regulars who were still playing it to see people come flooding back in.

There's something really fascinating about MMOs that are long past their peak. I loved the detail in the video about how of the characters who had one of those statues built only one of them still remains and they mostly keep to themselves. It feels like intentionally planned lore for a fantasy world.

Ultima Online, now there is a name I haven't heard for a long time. I remember the legend of the guy that killed Lord British.

I tried this so many times in the regular Ultimas. I feel like it should have been possible - give an instant game over or something afterwards and make it super hard to pull off, it would have been all good. But I'm glad it was done even once.

 

[Peroroncino]

Finished the first video, this is so wholesome and AMUSING.

Gonna watch the second one after I get off work

 

[CuteFaceJay]

This is wild.

Richard Garriot is not going to let you kill his character. But ya in the single player stuff you should have the freedom to do it.

Used to play a MUD called Genesis which lost many players, eventually dropping to 8-10 concurrent players in average, dropping to just 1 or 2 during certain hours. I had already stopped playing but every Yule I drop by to greet friends and chat around, so I totally thought it would die out eventually, however the pandemic brought a huge amount of new players, some of which stayed after it. So, it was quite surprising from being alone there to logging in a year later and finding almost 100 concurrent players, numbers that very few times we hit while I was active (between 1997 and 2010 or so). It's always cool when an old game gets a second life.

 

[Freelance Yakuza]

Great story, I loved

 

[SEGAvangelist]

I wish something like this would happen for Age of Conan. Best game ever.
