Doubt anyone else on hexbear is playing UOAlive rn but my Paladin needs help and I'm not sure if I can trust other players on this shard. Otherwise I'm going to have to make a lock picking character to help out.

Never played UO back in the day so I don't have any knowledge of it's planned sequel outside of seeing some screenshots in a gaming mag and thinking it looked kind of generic.

Yeah, now, a full twenty years after the MMO genre has burned out.

Well at the time I was big into Everquest and it's graphics totally wowed me. Funny to think those were cutting edge at one point.

I dipped my toe into UO, got really excited about the sequel, but spent most of my time in the Asheron's Call Beta and then Dark Age of Camelot.

Compared to what you could get on a console - stuff from Mario 64 to Halo - it all felt kinda mid. But it was definitely the visual edge of the 1st-Gen MMOs.

DAOC is on my bucket list of games to play, but I'm no good at pvp games tho

Yeah. There are definitely better reimplementations of the PvP model, too.

I was really excited for Crowfall, for a while. Then I blinked and missed it. Ah well...
