I've heard DaoC doesn't have a lot of "stayability". Do you guys experience this?

Welp, might as well post since it seems to be alive after the rez.

Morwyn-50 armsman Palomides
Morwyn-43 armsman Pendragon
Talonus-50 armsman Pendragon (cloned version of my Palomides guy)

Lyinar I've never had a problem with crashing in DAoC, and I've been playing since early Beta3. Lag and graphic slowdown yes, but only in *large* battles and I'm running on an older computer.

I meant people getting bored with it after the shiny graphics wore off.

Bajah, who is the middle guy in your sig? He looks almost like Shinji's father in EVA without his glasses, but I don't think that's right.

And tell me about DaoC. What's the premise?

And there's more on the way.

Personal horses, custom housing, guild halls, and new RVR-based class skills.

And there hasn't even been an expansion yet!

Depends on the person I guess. Personally, I'm having fun still with the game. I've been playing, basically, the same character since I got into beta and I'm not bored.

If you're the type who searches for *only* PvE or *only* RvR you're gonna get bored. If you don't mind/prefer either to an extreme, its a lot more fun.

Jet Black, from Cowboy Bebop. He's just too damn much like me

And I'll give you an in-depth review of DAoC later... I'm fixing to go play

People get bored with it because there's nothing to do at high levels except RvR. Though they've been taking steps in the right direction, they're still sorely sorely lacking in high level content.

Imagine EverQuest.

Now add A LOT more stats.

Now figure in that the developers actually tell you specifically what all the stats do.

Now add in the fact that classes are fairly customizable. Stats have a noticible effect on gameplay, and the way you spend your specialization points can carry you down a number of paths.

Now add in the fact that you can, if you choose, go out and kick other people's asses with your character.

Lyinar had this to say about Duck Tales:
I've heard DaoC doesn't have a lot of "stayability". Do you guys experience this?

In my opinion, the stayability is fine. I think people just expect the wrong things, and then they get dissapointed when it doesn't meet them. I tink the initial thought of it was crush kill destroy with no death penalties! yippy! and then they found out there is a tad bit more and they werent happy. Then people said that there wasn't the same atmosphere as EQ and that nobody talked. This is because DAoC does not equal EQ with different graphics. I guess all you need to do is go in expecting it to be what it is, not exactly like another game. honestly, I think the enviroment would be alot better for Role Playing than EQ could ever be..*shrugs* thats just me.

Realm Vs Realm

Hibernia VS Midgard VS Albion

It's like Team PVP. Your realmmates against other realms and their mates.

I thought I'd hate it since I hated EQ PVP so much.. but shit, this is FUN.. and I'm a healer!

It's just like fighting mobs that THINK... not people using cheez shit to kill you outta nowhere

Sounds like it might be interesting.

I'm not really in the line for a new game, cause EQ is enough right now. I just knew nothing about the game

My characters:
Gawin - 29 Cleric, Iseult, Albion
Glevaed - 11 Theurgist, Iseult, Albion

Alarielanen - 30 Enchanter, Pellinor, Hibernia
(Can't remember name) - 11 Eldritch, Pellinor, Hibernia

The trouble is that we have a bad habit, encouraged by pedants and sophisticates, of considering happiness as something rather stupid. Only pain is intellectual, only evil interesting. This is the treason of the artist: a refusal to admit the banality of evil and the terrible boredom of pain. - Ursula K. LeGuin ~ The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas

DAoC is so damn cool. I'm still hooked, although JK2 and re-playing other SW games has me occupied for the moment.

Same server as Bajah and I... but wrong team

So when you see a crazed archer ripping through your rear ranks with a sword of all things, you will know who it is ~_o *cackles*
