I am biased because RO changed my life. I played on a 2x/2x server with like 3k people and it was incredible. I met so many awesome people to braindead farm with and WoE was so fun, I didn’t have a lot of close friends in real life but I had some incredible people in RO. Also as a young bi furry bitch Moonie gave me very confusing feelings. I might not be here today if not for RO, so I have some opinions on RO hahaha
Quick edit: I played from when it came out here until when it became F2P and I disagreed with that choice. I hate MTX shit.
7/10 to me is a good game. I hate how people rate games. I’ve always hated it. A 6/10 game is enjoyable. A 5/10 game is absolutely mid. A 4/10 game is okay. 3/10 has huge flaws but is worth playing if you’re into that.
Subnautica is an 8/10 game for me. I thought it was amazing. I loved it. Below Zero was a 6/10 game. I thought it was good. I enjoyed it, and I would not call it “absolute mid.”
I started on the first PSP game and it was heavily more obtuse, with almost zero direction, tutorial, hints, anything hahaha. It got a LITTLE better with later “old style” games but it was still pretty obtuse. World NEEDED a tutorial that explained every little detail and held yer hand, otherwise new players would be hella turned off by the game and it wouldn’t have blown up like it did.
I got it for cheap layer (I almost never buy new games) and found it kinda shallow and boring. I wanted to like it, I love the theme and settings but ehhhhhhhhh
It was hyped up to be Space Fallout and I did not get Space Fallout out of it. Even like… Space Bad Fallout. I just got mediocre space game.
I was gonna play some Minecraft this weekend, it’s been YEARS! I went to log into my Mojang account, and oops, Microsoft bought Minecraft forever ago.
I go to their web site to see how to download Java edition.
“Log in with your Microsoft account!”
I don’t have, and am not going to make one of those.
“Click here to see how to log in with your Mojang account!”
you can’t, you have to re-buy the game again scrub
Alpha player BTW
Brutalmoose (moose2 on YouTube) is the comfiest channel I’ve ever watched and the community he’s cultivated is excellent and full of nice people. He plays a lot of retro and fairly unknown games. He set up a bingo system where he draws a number, plays a game (starting with Windows 98) for 15 minutes, then everyone watching decides whether to play another 15 minutes or pass and draw another number+game. “Bingo98” was the first. It’s excellent and very funny.
I started Ragnarok Online in 2003 and it is my favorite game of all time. Easily the best sandbox RPG I’ve ever played. I don’t think I’d actually still be here typing this if I never got into it. I met some incredible people. Thank you for mentioning it. I’ve been meaning to try Origins but I haven’t got around to it. I was very sad when they went F2P and added stupid F2P mechanics.
I wish I still had my old account, with my ice pick and my angeling robe on my GC Crusader!
I’m so happy to hear that you, not having nostalgia for it, enjoy it now! Sending love from a very RO oldhead.
Quick edit: to anyone else reading this, RO is a choose your own adventure hat-wearing chatroom and it’s CHARMING. also the soundtrack by SoundTEMP is fucking stellar. “Desert” and “Purity of your Smile” are so good.
Also my unknown-at-the-time queer ass really wanted to hold Moonlight Flower’s hand.
I will scream from the mountaintops that The Hex is his best game. I loved Inscryption so much and thought there was no idea I’d like any of his older games better. Inscryption has better replayability for sure, but I think overall The Hex is a better game. I love it sooooo much and people just get turned off by the graphics, because they don’t understand that there’s a reason they look like that in the previews… and why they can’t show other things.
Anyone reading this, please go play The Hex.
Ooooo I just started Ship of Harkinian! I’m about ten hours in.
