This game used to mog everything modern, I can't even tell a story about the game without sounding like I'm talking about some movie.
Goddamn what a time that was.
Is it still around?
yes
Don't bother, modern Tibia is essentially a different game.

Once the novelty over playing online with other people dies out, you eventually realize MMOs are terrible games.

You just described the best mmorpg ever made: Lineage 2.
No housing autism tho
this indeed
Tibia came out before Ultima Online, but the Korean MMO Nexus was even earlier. Consider that some people count graphical MUDs as MMOs, though.
Todo mundo que joga/já jogou tibia é viado. Prove me errado. Você não pode.
This is accurate. Half of the novelty of these games was the idea that you were interacting with someone from across the world and you could work together with people. Now that people were given free reign to lean into degeneracy you can't even add some random guy from Awesomenauts without running the risk of them secretly being a scat furry with a 6 paragraph long steam bio.
Couple that with the fact MMOs effectively let you bypass the need or incentive to be social, and increasingly give you the ability to solo shit and you end up with a genre where ever game in it genuinely misses the point of why it existed to begin with.
Not just housing, guild halls / houses / HQs were fucking amazing as well
>not living in the tower in the middle of the map with 50 of your niggas
GENTE, DANIEL PALADINO NA MINHA FRENTE EM ELDRON!
JOGOU UMA MAGIC WALL, JOGOU DUAS MAGIC WALL, GENTE! JOGOU TRÊS MAGIC WALL. NA MINHA FRENTE, GENTE!
Nonsense, Tibia was a game for psychopaths. Your progress deepended on how good you were at lying to strangers and murdering the weak. Even in Rookgard where you can't PVP players would trick newfags into drinking "health" potions and blocking their ascent from the Minotaur room.
Posso, afinal, você não jogou pelo visto.
You were supposed to log the fuck off and not log back for a few hours.
I do remember they eventually made part of it a protection zone, since so many noobs kept getting killed. I just can't recall when, exactly.
Kek that shit was the best part though.

This is the only reason people think all MMOs are shit now. Everyone whines about convenience and not having enough time until the games are essentially single player games that occasionally require other people to advance. But the other people just appear and there is little need for interaction. Back when you had to sit around looking for a group and then walk to the area, back when you couldn’t level solo, back when economies felt substantial and player driven, it actually felt like you accomplished something when you progressed in the game. Feeling like you’re interacting with a living world was the point and the gameplay is interesting enough in that it’s different than any other genre but without player interaction there’s nothing to sustain it. The best part about FFXIV is the housing and RPing, community initiated events. But most people just want to sit in a queue nowadays I guess
Selling dragon shield 5k parcel only you first.
HUNT
>>loot around 5K worth of shit from bodies
wow so you found ONE fire sword? kek
Fast hands motherfucker
>spent all weekend grinding skill points
>OK gonna hunt a bit real quick
>get PKd
>lose all progress and then some
The focus on "raids" or other themepark content is also bad. The main meat of the game should be much more open than that.
>See a guy pushing a bag around
>"steal and yur hunted"
>Yeah lol OK
>Take the bag
>mfw the same guy and a couple of his friends hunt me down and kill me 40 minutes later
I loved the soundtrack in this game. And towns were really based.
Então...
>*opens macro*
Nothing personnel, kid...
This game had a soundtrack? I just listened to final fantasy.
Pretty sure fast hands was just a scam to make players put their shit on the table so you could steal it.
to the faggot who lured that elf arcanist that killed me and made me lose my fire sword all those years ago, fuck you nigger
