I really like this game but I feel like if you don't have a group of friends you regularly play with, this game isn't for you. I try using the LFG UI tool but if you're not a "talkative" person or the one who likes to initiate conversation, you end up wandering around grinding single chevron mobs/farming mats for crafting. I'll keep giving it a try and hope the population gets better.

That's what I am worried about. Most nights I only have an hour or so to play. Not sure I will be able to get much done in that time. Atleast with eq I can box my group. But I told Nathan I would give the game another try so I'm going to buy it while it's on sale just to support them.

You dont need to be particularly social. Just have to respond to a shout for a dungeon or whatever in your level range. Game isnt so complicated it needs a ton of communication. Also like most old school mmos you don't need a huge amount of time to play but you need a big chunk of time... Like playing once a week for 4 hours is a lot better than playing an hour a night.

I wish I could say this game grabbed a hold of me. I want to like it so much. I can see so much potential. It's just missing something that I can't quite put my finger on. The combat is so much more engaging... the sense of adventure and exploration feels just like being back in September of 1999 and running thru Qeynos Hills for the first time. I like the built in trade skills and ease of leveling them up.... it's just missing something... I'm gonna probably play this in off times but I can't see playing this over Quarm right now.

Good question! The one I have right now is killing my back and the area that leads down the deep bottom crack (the bone there). I would also like to know if he's using a pillow or something on top of the chair to make it more comfortable for longer pc sessions. I use a pillow but it gets really flat and stinky after a while, so it's not really an ideal solution. I also have a massage thingy on top of the entire chair which even heats up the entire surface for the perfect relaxation, but it ripped in one spot after constant usage and shocked me a bit when I came in contact with the wires.

It's a low cost chair from Gymax : It's not the best but it reclines and yes, I use a pillow also because the seat part is worn out from over a year of constant use : Here is the Amazon link to it : www.amazon.com/GYMAX-Recliner-Bluetooth-Adjustable-Ergonomic/dp/B0CGVKK3LR?tag=namespacebran383-20&asc_source=01GTER1X19F274KT48MCTDGTQG&th=1

I haven't seen detailed stuff on classes. Is there a healer class? From reading, it looks like every class in the game is melee, and I tend to like playing ranged when I do play DPS (which isn't often), with a much stronger preference of playing healers since I like healing and buffing allies, but I don't care much about being a combat class attacking red health bars. Are there actual healer classes in this game? Or are they all DPS classes? It's one thing I've come to hate about modern MMOs like WoW and FFXIV is everything is a "supports" which is usually "dpser with healing on the side". Is this an old school MMO that actually has healing classes? Because I'd love that! It's been too long since there was a good MMO that actually had HEALER classes, not "dps with better ques" classes.

If Saga of Luci ..I mean Embers Adrift would at least let you kill 3 trash NPCs and then sit down and eat instead of after every single one, I might say it's old school.

I'm not sure I understand, you mean when soloing with your class you have to rest between each mob? That varies depending on class and the con of the mob, I usually kill 4 or 5 solo before I need to rest : and in a group we pretty much just kill things and keep moving and dungeon crawling nonstop, with a few times we need to actually rest. And you only eat once every 30 minutes (or longer with crafted or special food items) and the regen is pretty fast, so everything you are saying is confusing me. But calling this a CASH GRAB is absurd. The game is $20 right now, everyone can play FOR FREE until November 5th with full Sub Perks, the NORMAL price is only $30 - buy to play - NO CASH SHOP, and optional sub at $10 a month, and totally not necessary to enjoy the game. I dare you to find a better deal for the player than what Embers team is offering, or to find another MMO even from triple A company that has as many updates in a single year as this game has had. And all the subtelties and content released since launch with all the great things coming from a team of 12 people has 95% of my community loving this game. I hate to hear you aren't enjoying it, but don't trash me in the process of saying you don't like it.

I play Knight mainly and find single chevron white and blue cons pretty easy to roll through albeit slow due to the nature of being a tank class. I can even solo 2-chevron blues. I admit the game has its issues and doesn't quite capture the same design mechanics as EQ and whatnot but it is very much the opposite of a cash grab, especially since they removed the need for a subscription to play. I got my dad to try the game during the June free weekend and he said he'd like it if it were B2P and so his wish was granted it seems. The game has gotten better including its optimization even for my measly 4 GB graphics card which is below the system requirements. I would argue it's not quite there but here's hoping the alchemy update brings some pleasant surprises as well.
