  • I'm still plodding to dragon. So slow. I have gotten 100+ on every other IRE game (some of them more than once) but there's just something about Achaea bashing that makes me want to paint a target on my desk and bang my head against it repeatedly. 

    But some day I'll get there! Good on all you people who have already made it, whether it took you 500 IG years or 2 weeks.

    anyone remember praying costing 20% xp minimum at level 99 and level 100 being the max? I lost dragon like 50 times.
    It was cool having both dragoncraft and class abilities though. Dragon monks were terrifying hunters.

    Thrud probably still had the record for most times losing dragon.  20% xp loss sounds ungodly, but old dragon could raid like 20 on 1. Ridiculous as any class, and back then raid xp was very viable.  Just go old occie

    it was weird for me. Hunting was all I knew. So I was like OK! I MADE IT! IM DONE!

    .... now what?
    That's how it used to work: bash bash bash, do nothing but bash, 16 hour days, reach dragon in a few weeks. Then... disappear, because that one activity was the only thing you ever did and you didn't develop any connections or aspirations beyond that, so your only reason for logging in had vanished.
    Still does that for some people.

  • What @Lucianus said. Achaea was my home port, as it were. I have always come back to it for a dozen different reasons. But it's definitely, and unfortunately, NOT always because of the people or RP (or lack thereof). Each of the IRE games has its quirks, and problems, and perks. I was extremely on the fence about planting my "supernoob" in Aetolia, or Achaea. Were it not for two friends wanting to do Achaea, and my being outnumbered, I'd have gone back to Aetolia because I like their end game way more, and the RP is stellar.

    Achaea's large player base is its biggest draw for me. But with a general QW list of 125+ on average, I do have to say I wish there was more RP and it didn't focus -quite- so much on PK.

    We really have some amazing people. It's a shame to see people up and leave for another IRE game (even though it's supporting the overall company still) just because no one really gave someone the time of day. It's 2016! Achaea has been around forever. Doesn't that mean the RP should have aged like a fine wine and gotten better?

    If only. Good roleplay is like a set of washboard abs, it disappears when you stop working it out.
    -- Grounded in but one perspective, what we perceive is an exaggeration of the truth.
  • Psh @Aerek. It's like riding a bike! You never really forget, you just get lazy! (Seriously that's some bullshit though. First time I tried to ride a bike after like 10 years I was like wtf is going ooooon and wobbling all over the place. It was sad for about five minutes.) 
  • Anyone who remembers the 'roleplay' of Achaea 10+ years ago will agree it -has- been refined a lot with age. It was just incredibly bad to begin.

    I was around then, and RPing, and it was actually pretty great. Maybe I just was lucky enough to run into the good ones. 
  • Nah it was definitely overall way worse. There's always been pockets of good roleplay but back then we had city leaders begging through tears for people to stop using smilies and LOL on city channels.
  • @Kiet Okay. That I remember. I concede to your better memory!
  • @Daeir rave.

  • JurixeJurixe Where you least expect it
    Had an hour or two of fun exploring the quests in an area and trying things out on my own. Forgot how fun that used to be. Celanis and demigods, the work you do to make things unique really is appreciated.

    I.. um. 
    Does this mean that Aerek has no abs anymore? (I'm sorry, I am really struggling with this one, honest.)
