Sure, I get that, and if it was the first game from an indie developer that would make sense, but for a game from Valve who have extensive resources, talent and experience it definitely seems like a poor introduction to the game.

Played about 5 minutes when a friend invited me and uninstalled, thought it might be interesting if the shooting mechanics were tight but it feels like a port of a console shooter to PC circa 2010. Really disappointing this is what we get from Valve.
For me personally, Velious was the last expansion that still felt like “classic” EverQuest. Luclin introduced some pretty significant changes such as The Nexus and The Bazaar, that for me really impacted how the game world felt. If Quarm is just up to Kunark then it would definitely be worth playing there as well.

That was really good. It’s something I hadn’t given any thought to , but the fact that First Person Shooter didn’t exist as a term when Doom released, it was interesting seeing the progression. I remember as a kid referring to Heretic and Hexen as Doom-clones, but wasn’t really cognizant of the term as it fell out of use in favour of other descriptions.
Glad you enjoyed it, there’s some wild stories he has covered. Another favourite of a similar vein is the multipart episode on the early Xbox hacking scene: https://darknetdiaries.com/episode/45/
Anyone interested in diving deep into the rabbit hole on Team Xecuter and Gary, I highly recommend the Darknet Diaries episode in which Jack interviews Gary and goes through the history.
This was such a fun game, not too long, great music and the boss fights were such a cool style. Highly recommend everyone give it a go.
One of Summoning Salt’s best videos yet, the reveal midway through >!when Summoning Salt enters the leaderboard and proceeds to dominate the game was awesome. Well deserved he gets to tell his story.!<
Also, Hippo Manippo is such a great name.
