Trying to get a Glowing Black Stone drop broke me on that game. The final straw was after camping the npc that drops it as a rare drop for days, with like 6-8 hours between spawns (Pyzjn), she finally spawned again and midway through casting a spell to kill her, she spawned because it was morning. :/
That’s the thing. I miss being broken by a game. I miss that struggle. I’ve tried to experience it again but maybe nostalgia is superior. I’m hoping for pantheon to bring that feeling back. I genuinely miss being addicted to the struggle and joy Everquest was. It helped mold me into who I am today and I love it.
