This week’s community spotlight focuses on the thread “If you can revive any game.. what would it be and why?” by Beartoe. As the thread title implies, Beartoe wants to know which MMO other readers feel are worthy of coming back from the dead, and why. Beartoe’s pick? Asheron’s Call 2:
“if you can revive any game .. what would it be and why?
for myself it would be Asheron's Call 2. my first mmo. before wow or FF11, almost same time when SWG just came out, and EVE was still in its infancy.
I remember creating a big hulking Lugian Male.. and using the portal like "stargate effect" to the starting area. the world was beutifull.. grass sways as the wind blows, your armor and your flesh shows damage as you get into tough fights, but slowly repairs itself as you rest. sounds of the world and the music is like no other. Lotros music instrument, the way you can hit keyboard keys for the notes was first introduced on this game.
the basic layout of wow ui interface. is straight carbon copy of ac2. it was one of the first mmo that uses addons, ui layout and what not. .. again this was pre-wow.
anyway.. I would like to read more about you guys. post away.”
