I once met a cool dude in Runescape. We became best friends and did zany shit like going fishing, cutting trees behind the starting fort and dancing madly when one of us leveled up, etc. It was really fun.
Good times. That must have been in like 2007 or something.

And I'm fairly sure it was written in Java back when I played.

I had fun times on Runescape.
Even when I lost my main account and had to start over I kept playing, for quite a while. Probably the main reason is because I couldn't run any other games on my computer. In fact, the thing that eventually made me stop playing was their graphics upgrade...

We oughta get together on the OldSchool servers. Start a clan and stuff. It'd be fun.

I loved the Java. Less lag. Less ugh.

They changed it all.

Yeah, I quit around the time that the first post-Classic Wildy revamp came (the one that did away with it and added the stupid arena thing). Which was pretty much also the point where I had finished all of the interesting quests and hit the point of maximum grind on my main.

Yes, that is the point of shittiness I was talking about.
"Oh no we can't let players do what they want it might be used for illegal sale of ingame currencies so obviously the way to solve this is by restricting EVERYTHING."

I'm also disappointed in Jagex for having their mech-based MMO thing be Transformers. Sellouts.

So Pathologic is getting a remake. For those not in the know, Pathologic is a fantastic Russian art game. I was very pleased to hear it was getting a remake and thus subscribed to the teaser website. Then I checked my emails.

Spoiler: The Email I Received (click to show/hide)

Hi. Name’s Voronika.

Bet you didn’t expect a personal letter from me. Of course you didn’t. You thought you’ll submit an e-mail and receive ads from a company producing weight loss socks or dog wool coats. Or a startup, or something. Whatever were you thinking?

Don’t worry, I won’t be bothering you. Can’t write too often from where I’m at now. No, I’m not talking about a metaphorical afterlife — I’m simply stuck in the middle of nowhere, and the closest town that has a telegraph office is three days away from me. I’ve coded the site on my laptop, and then I took a flash drive with me to the only village nearby that has a cyber cafe and internet access. I’m not even sure the site is really on. I think local PCs work on coal.

So if you’re reading this that means I do still have some skills.

One of my skills is dying. That’s what I’m doing right now. Actually, same goes for you, but I’m way ahead; if you want to catch up with me, you’d better hurry since I know I’ll die this September.

Please don’t ooh me. Just listen.

I’m privy to a secret — no, it’s not a secret I have to tell the world before I die or else it dies with me. The opposite, really: there are quite a few who share it with me. But you don’t. They are special, you see, and you aren’t. You know that, right? And the secret — the secret shared by way too many — will keep living after I die. It’ll grow. Develop. Root itself in the world deeper and deeper.

Well, what if I don’t like that? What if I want to play rebel? My rebellion looks like a website with scantily clad girls and a bunch of pretentious slogans, yeah.

But I can’t offer you anything better, so here we are. At least they say I’m a decent artist. Enjoy my portfolio.

And don’t worry. I’ll tell you the secret. Just you wait.

Voronika,

P. S. Why not a blog, you ask? Because everyone knows that only fools and lunatics start blogs that aim to uncover deep dark secrets. Also because it’s easier to keep away a database of e-mail addresses than a domain.

Oh, Ice Pick Lodge. Why. I'm not even sure if this should go in this thread or the terrified thread.

RS has a fucking client now?
I think they forgot what a browser MMO was.

EDIT: Whelp it has abilities that you put on a hotbar now. Congratulations you managed to fail at not being a WoW clone. I don't even know how because YOU WEREN'T ONE BEFORE.
Fucking ell m80 it's like they're managed to update it worse.

[Frumple]

Dozed off a bit, had a dream that was honestly mostly about food by the end of it. Woke up to the sensation of me trying to gnaw through the shell of the gauze I had in my mouth to keep me from bleeding all over the place.

... gauze does not have a shell. It also can't really be chewed up all that much. Dream brain was definitely giving it a college try, though. And now I'd really like some freaking pecans.

If only I could chew without bleeding places ;_;

I saw that coming from the moment they arbitrarily changed HP from being "Your Health level = your HP" to "Your Health level x10 or whatever = your HP because big numbers are better numbers hurrdurr".

Heh, I gave up on it even before the horribilitiness set in, got bored of the grind. I AM BECOME MMO REVERSE-HIPSTER, DISLIKING THINGS BEFORE THEY BECAME UNCOOL!

Ive never auctualy played pathologic but I quite like the void apart from the fact that the most important symbol in the game has the worst recognition of them all

ah, runescape, the game I played until level 45 or something, then gave away my account... was also the first MMO I played I believe.
went back to it occasionally and found that the starter island was changed to a dungeon/quest thing, then back to the island I think, then changed again.  last real attempt was around the 10X HP update I think
