Nostalgic. My first MMORPG
It's been a blast from the past diving into it again!
@@Voidmoney It took more than a decade, but Ultima Online emulators now are reaching levels way beyond what the original engine was capable of, graphics have been modernized without visually changing the game, etc etc etc to a point us oldies aren't even embarrassed any more to show the game to younger people, I hope Asheron's Call follows the same road, and preferably quicker, because AC really deserves to reach another generation of gamers.
@@DutchFurnace Yeah! the lack of graphic upgrades have been real rough, but I'm still enjoying it. Great to here UO is still going as well... might have to do some videos on that some day too.
@@Voidmoney Check UO Outlands specifically. That's the biggest server there is, and has a couple of (small) dedicated youtubers/streamers.
@@DutchFurnace I thought their spell system was very unique at the time. Reagents changed based on spell level as well as character.
This is the greatest MMO of all time and there isn’t even a close second. Darktide from 1999-2006ish may have been the most ruthless pvp ever in existence and I’ve played many MMO’s and compared them all to Asherons call and none of them are remotely close to Asherons calls greantess…man did I take this game for granted in its hay day. What an amazing game.
Very sad that it's been relegated to the heap of abandoned classics.
Darktide represent!
Held Kara against Blood for a whole summer before we crumbled.
Best MMO experience ever.
OG!
My first MMO, played from 1999 to 2006 on Leafcull. I can still feel the excitement and adulation when I solo'd the Olthoi Queen, and saw the global server-wide announcement proclaiming my characters name. Good times..
Man Leafcull good times, I remember getting on the Gek, was it?, xp patron chain. My dude Smert showed me the game from Germany and I'll never forget him
@@g0ni Interestingly enough, it was Gekkonaide that introduced me to AC. I met him playing Motocross Madness on the Microsoft Gaming Zone. I joined that XP chain too when he built it.
Yay i played on Leafcull also! stopped playing when SWG came out. Fun times
Oh buddy, this takes me back. I played for so long. Fast-casting mage PVP in Asheron's Call is still the highlight of any competitive gaming I've had since, and chatting with people while grinding in dungeons was just a daily thing.
I used to love the territory controlling on Darktide... it was such a natural biproduct of the game's features, but not presented in an intentional or forced way. Had a very organic, and tense dynamic.
@@Voidmoney Absolutely true, it was such a unique experience that was really pioneered by the players through the game itself. We used to fight to control Ayan and the lifestone for hours! Darktide really was something special.
Have you ever read Rak's blogs about the early days of Darktide? I was actually just thinking I should see if I can dig them up and do a video on them.
Currently trying to remember how we would speed buff
I bought this as a kid not realizing I needed an internet connection to play 😭. Thanks for this. May try to finally play 😂.
Haha, I totally get that. I had to convince my fam to let me use their credit card as I was a kid as well.
This is an extraordinary achievement. Taking the packets from the game in the closing time of the game, and reverse engineering the game from that point to interact correctly with the client. And then to implement quests, just amazing!
I was the highest level tinkerer on my server when I last played., had so many sik's , shards and ingots that I was tinkering for free, but nothing sticks in my memory more than getting my first matty hide robe. The good old days.
I never forget when we had to learn the spells with candle collor and i finally had all the 7ens. Good times... Hey please make it again just up to date .... ASAP thanks enjoy
Ah Solclaim... my first mmorpg and one of my favorites. I have played for over a year on the private server Coldeve. Well run and stable, with active guilds to join.
Ah nice, I was a Solclaim player as well.
FrostFell alumni checking in. I played the heck out of this game in the early 2000's.
Hey! Welcome!
My server too. Best gaming time of my life.
ah yes, and the daily tiffs between Asba and Ophar, those were the days
The PVP in this game is such a blast. I first heard of the game from Reckful (RIP), ended up putting a year into Asherons Call as a total newb, loved it so much.
Thank you for replying getting back into Asheron s call I will wholeheartedly be a fan of yours and watch every episode you post
I used to play Asheron s call and have also tried it recently
Although it is not as easy for me as it used to be as I am now blind and have to navigate using apps and memory alone
I'm hearing the call, and I'm grateful there is a way for me to answer it.
Nothing like it. Most fun I have ever had gaming. Started on Darktide, Ended on Darktide. What a game. O_o
Thistledown! Represent!
FYI Qual bar or cue bar the goodendum town in the south lugane outpost is directly north of the road Walk North Uptown to the tent on the right side of the road turn east follow forward you ll find a life zone keep going up that valley to the Lugain Citadel Beware all Lou Gaines in Citadel now have hollow rocks
There are several new servers running ash runs call that update on a regular basis monthly like they used to in the past except extremely new content new monsters quest etc
I tried posting in one of their discords asking how to download and run the game and was greeted with "I'm not gonna hold your hand through the process, figure it out on your own noob".. like wtf, yeah i really wanna join a toxic server like that... I miss the game, but not that part lol
this was like 4 years ago, so I dont remember which server it was, but thank you for this information! i may actually give it a try now! I played on darktide back in the day, and the pvp aspect of the game (in my opinion) was ruined when they added housing. I loved the fact that it was the only game where you were never safe, could always be attacked, and guilds fought over lifestones and leveling territories. That was the game to me, and that all went away when they added housing. Do you know if there are any pvp servers that don't have housing? AKA pre-Dark Majesty?
Dekarutide is Dark Majesty (not pre), that's the closest I know of. But yeah, some people in this community are pretty unhelpful, but I wouldn't say they represent the community as a whole. Most people want to see the game succeed and thrive. Unfortunately those sorts of people tend to be the loudest, in both the real and virtual worlds.
Here's a link to my dekarutide installation video; it's a little different than core game. ua-cam.com/video/G3tj72gjCco/v-deo.html
Missed this game cause i grew up with DAoC and WoW. it looks very interesting and im excited to play it when i get bored of eden :D
It is SUPER interesting.
The game was huge. This was my second MMO after Ultima Online and when I say the game world was big you wouldn't believe. You could run in a straight line for hours.
Heya! I play on coldeve, and wouldn't mind someone to run quests with!
Oh holy shit... I know what I'll be doing today!
When you have to reinstall old game like this you know modern gaming is dead =p
Is the coldeye server on like 10x xp or something? I have little interest in doing the whole kill 1,000 goblins for one level thing in another game.
Considering this as a project gorgon alternative
Not on 10x XP, but there are plenty of easy quests that give big bulk XP if you want to power level without a stupid grind.
They are doing a remake of asherons call 2 in unreal but it's not the full game yet found that on Facebook groups.
There's an emulator of AC2 out as well. Was saving that for a video later because the engine still needs a lot of work. Might be my 1000 sub video.
Darktide!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!lemme send yo ass B2LS
I assume that my original AC Character on Thistledown and all my mules are gone? So... level one is where you start?
Yeah, the official servers were shut down, so you have to start over from scratch on a private server.
Hit me if ya want, I can get you to lvl 80 or higher in like an hour.
TD!
Does anyone know if it's possible to play AC2 in 2023? That was my first MMO and I'd love to play it again!
It is, but it's a bit more of a process. I'll make a video of it sometime soon.

I had the weirdest problem.
The Thwarglauncher installer did nothing.
I tried running it as an Admin, and nothing that way either.
Like, it didn't even try to install anything...
I wonder if it's a Windows 11 thing. :(
Are you getting any errors pop-ups?
Nope, Literally nothing happens. :(
It's as though I wasn't clicking on anything at all. Even right clicking and trying to run in Admin mode, nothing happens.
Nothing opens, nothing pops up.
That sucks. I've been doing a little bit of research when I have time to see if I can find a solution to your problem; either playing without Thwarg, or finding a workaround. I'll let you know if I find anything.
@@Voidmoney Thank you very much!
But yeah, I was searching for a while yesterday to see if anyone else was even having the same problem, and couldn't find anyone. :\
I did find a few other client launchers that allow you to enter in private servers, but I haven't gotten any of them to work yet... I'm hoping I can find something that works though -- I hate to see anybody have problems playing this game when they want to.
I am getting an "account name is not valid message" I was wanting to play Levistras and Coldeve, if it needs me to remember my old user and PW from years ago theres no chance, is there any way to reset this and start on a fresh account for levistras and coldeve? Edit: I was actually able to get into Coldeve but now I am having resolution issues, game is closing out with direct X 9 message.
Did you follow the tips in the video regarding Direct X error messages?
I was wondering if you could help me get ac figured out on my computer. I have a friend coming over tonight to try and help me figure it out. I have windows 11
What part of the process are stuck on?
@@VoidmoneyIm playing! name is Assassanyx
the authentication server is unreachable is the error i get. Used to play this a long time ago wish i could get it to work..
Do you get the error when launching the game in ThwargLauncher?
I pressed launch on thwarglauncher then the old Ac login screen comes up. I put in a username and passwordthen pressed launch or next. Then i get the error after 30 sec .
NOTE: Great Game
NOTE: Great Game
But not asherons call2?
I played some awhile ago, and almost every one was botting, is that still the case?
Are their any with servers with slower leveling? I missed that, or at least I think I missed that and admit I would probably hate it pretty quickly lol
Levistras has no botting but is still end of retail so pretty quick pace with leveling. Dekarutide is an older patch but PVP. Otherwise I haven't played anything outside of Coldeve
@@Voidmoney what is end of retail?
Frostcull
Back to tusker cave to PL a new account
I would like to find an app that allows me to voice chat such as discord or if anybody you or anybody knows a discord channel that I has a active community I would appreciate it if you could post it in a upcoming astronaut video you produce or read a comment with some anybody that has information to help me lol that s not astronaut that s Asheron s call once again being blind this is all done through speech and not text sorry folks
ere the expansions included?
Yup they are! There's also some unique servers with older versions of the game, or their own expansions.
Stopped in 2019
you still playin?
Yup!
please do not play music on your videos tell people they can play their own music that way it s personalized videos that play music 10 to alienate those that don t prefer that type of music or prefer to hear your commentary as well as the background sounds and combat sounds
Look at AC videos that use music montages and no commentary very low views
Great vid thank you friendo
Hey! Thank you so much, sorry I didn't see this earlier :)
