Nice that sounds like fun. I'm more of a pencil pen and water color enthusiast. I like doing stuff on PC, but I couldn't really get the best out of it. My hands get really dirty too lol. I have an Instagram account with my art on it, but it's mostly doodles, and I haven't done anything in about 8 or 9 years. I've been on a hiatus.

The old EQ back in the day had a great system for dying. Not permadeath, but there were consequences. You lost some XP and sometimes a level, you had to do a corpse run to retrieve your corpse, usually in the middle of very aggressive mobs, as well as pick up your gear.

This encouraged player interactions and comradery, because often you'd need help to get your corpse, or a cleric to come rez you

EQ was ahead of its time.

But then everyone wanted their hand to be held, then games suffered for such.

I'm excited for Pantheon: Rise of the Fallen, looks like EQ spiritual successor RIP Aradune.

I heard of Pantheon years ago, by the looks of it it'll be at least a few more before release
