    DAOC ruled

    It seems like every person who played DAOC is really good at other MMOs. Just an observation... maybe because it was out before WoW made every subsequent MMO into a simple pile of **** designed by marketing departments.

    The first MMO was something called Life, and that game required physical movement, it's actually more advanced than most of the things you find these days anyway.

    I heard that game was just a cash grab. Had to pay to even feed your character!!

    Watch out!

    Projectile pocket protectors and flying polyhedral dice, everywhere!

    Hey! I don't use ppps, but I CAN dig out my 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, & 20 sided dice if you want to get into it...

    Great... I have access to a live feed from the server farm in Chicago where Neverwinters servers are.
    And at the moment i can report there is in fact 2 men in the server room but they appear to be looking at an extensive Tazo collection... this bodes ill for all of Nevewinter.

    AND Neverwinter Nights was up and running on both AOL and Compuserve in 1991. Ultima Online wasnt online until 97, and Meridian 59 was the year before. They were not the first mmorpg

    NEVERWINTER NIGHTS was the first.

    NWN was the first *graphical* MMO... jk wow was the first mmo.

    I played LoK as well. I miss those days of going after an OL staff or a corpse run at mamas or the trip through the underworld if you were the one who got eaten by mama.

    I could only play LoK because my employer at the time provided me with a sponsored account. The virtual bills I racked up were pretty insane, but yes, I miss those days, too. I don't think they were better, but more ... "innocent". Full of wonder and amazement for what's possible. I still remember my fascination when for the first time I stuffed the phone into a 300bps "modem" and my computer "talked" to another computer across the county!
    Unsure about skills and feats? Check the Master List of Class Builds!

    MPBT on GEnie was one of the first, unless you are talking about muds or ansi muds, those go back at least a decade before GEnie and AOL were even thought of.

    I think we're ignoring the bigger problem here. STO has declared war on us and are currently heading towards Faerun at warp 10. We need to prepare our defenses.

    Agreed. Summon the Dragons.

    Neverwinter Nights was no different than Diablo. LOL A multi-player RPG. Meridian 59 was the First official MMO though. UO the second and brought MMO's to the mainstream.
