Played this last weekend and had a blast as a little gnome cleric in this big scary world! Would love to have diety choices in the game. Would like it if the HP buff line came with real HP, or a HOT to fill up the hollow HP that it gives. Its a ton of mana to buff, you got OOM after 3 casts, and it starts you already in a healing deficit
The sand giant scout reminds me of the frost giant in DAoC. I like the 2x scale of it in the massive zone. I'm looking forward to seeing this game progress!
I hope this game is challenging like the original EQ.. With groups, raids and rare loot. That was my favorite part as a kid, real rewards and real consequences
Wow guys your progress is real 👏 Can't even imagine what this game going to be like in 2 years.If this continues this way and all goes smooth You might have big hit in your hands.I know more and more people will be joining you people to share that delicious pie.Keep it up.
What is the default location where this installs please? i have installed this and enjoyed it alot, i would like to play again but i cant locate it ? any help would be nice
Just got this I've tried a few US east servers when I click the little campfire next to enter it takes me to an empty area I don't even have a basic weapon, when I click the enter option it says you are not allowed to enter this world, also is there basic key remapping, it shows the option in esc menu but clicking it doesn't do anything, when I enter where I can like I said it's an empty area, there isn't even a chat box
Hey! Sorry for the confusion. We've set up a little area for folks to look at their characters when the servers aren't available. Newer people probably aren't as aware of the intent. We'll have to clarify that at some point.
@@MonstersMemories Will you folks be having another playtest? I just found out about this game less than 2 days ago, I've told a bunch of people about it so far, I think all 50 players on Rift now know about it lol
No micro transactions! I really respect that you guys are sticking to this, and hope you continue to. I don't know why everyone is so desperate to pay money to make the game worse. Every time you see somthing cool in a game with micro transactions you have to wonder if they actually earned it or of they just bought it. It just doesn't work in an mmo for anyone but the people making money. It cheapens the whole experience.
I hope that you are thinking of making "subclasses" of different classes, meaning you go further with feats instead of the extremely chaotic AA system in EQ. Make each class for example a rogue more of an assassin, some that use some spells, some the more classic Thief etc. Is this way off the scope of when you launch or do you have any plan at all how and if you are implementing such a system over the standard EQ system. I think that it's cool to have a EQ vibe, but why would I play an EQ classic clone when I can do that on p99, Project Quarm and TLP'S on EQ. Just some feedback 😊👍
Played in the latest stress test and am pretty disappointed in the state of Night Harbor. It looked exactly the same as it did six months ago in the last stress test I was in. It’s really empty, boring, and super laggy.
It's fair to be disappointed. Different folks have different expectations, so it's natural that we can meet all of them. Hit me up on a stream or tag me in Discord (aLovingRobot) and I can explain more, but for now, here's a brief response: Lag in Night Harbor - Night Harbor is our most densely packed zone because it contains the city and at least 3-4 newbie yards. The stress tests and playtest use this zone as a worst case scenario. We went into the playtest knowing we were going to have issues, because we weren't able to resolve all the problems we found in the June 2024 stress tests (Sphere of Influence, Network, and other issues). We decided to wait to include all of our fixes until after the Playtest, to ensure we didn't introduce new "show stopper" bugs that might make things worse. Empty and Boring - The reality is that we haven't been working in Night Harbor for the last 6 months, so your assessment on progress there is pretty accurate. That's why you didn't see much of an update. We've been getting some base population into Sungreet Strand, Glass Flats, and Fallen Pass during that time. This is because the decision was made to try and get those zones up in at least a placeholder form, rather than continue to flesh out more of Night Harbor at the time. This decision was also done in part because we're still working through some Night Harbor lore as well as working on some technical aspects of the art (shaders/materials/textures). So, we figured why not get the first 70% of some other zones in place while we figure out how best to tackle the last 30% of Night Harbor. We still have at least 2 districts to build in Night Harbor and a lot of content to continue to add. Some of this will be dependent on Trade Skills, Housing, and other systems to come online. Coincidently, Hamad and I just started working on more Night Harbor lore this week, and Nick and I are about to sit down and discuss some small layout revisions. Anyway, I hopes this help you understand the state of Night Harbor a bit better.
@@MonstersMemories Thank you and I definitely appreciate the explanations. I was just surprised at what I saw and experienced given the impending early release date being only six to nine months away. I kind of thought Night Harbor was going to the shining star example of the work you’ve done on the game for the past six months or so, but given your limited team, I totally get your decision process and resolutions. I appreciate the work your team is doing and I’m definitely looking forward to playing that first day of early release.
@@Inmate533 thanks for the response! Just to clarify, we're not going into Early Access until early 2026. That gives us about 18 months to wrap up Night Harbor, refine the other zones, add a few zones for the elves in Calafrey, and get started on post-launch content. It'll be tight, but it's a good bit more than you were thinking. You can get more details here: monstersandmemories.com/early-access-faq
Ugh, sorry to say but I had a miserable 10 minutes trying to figure out this game... then died on my first mob... it's just too primitive, worse than EQ was back in 1999...
I'd encourage you to group early and often until you get a hang of it, and zone just outside the nooby yards for better latency, until they get a firmer grip on their net code. Just outside the nooby yards,, there are still a ton of nooby yards critters. And I garuntee it's better than eq back in 99, or at least I am, I drowned in my starting city and had to play as a totally naked troll sk from the start back in 99.
@@MonstersMemories One of the worst things was getting started - it took a while just to scribe my 2 spells, much too long... then I could not target a mob and start attacking before I was killed in seconds
Dwarves look bad ass! Played a gnome cleric this weekend, grouped with a dwarf fighter, and goblin shaman constantly. We all had a blast and loved the models!

some of the music has a major twin peaks vibe
Good call. One of the songs was inspired by the theme song.
I don't know what is more exciting, watching such a talented and dedicated team create MnM or playing it.
Raining could lessen invis to like 90% (raindrops bouncing off a surface) and fresh footprints in the sand could alert mobs of something nearby
Had a lot of fun playing this weekend when I could. Even managed to convince my brother to play and he said he had fun too!
Having tons of fun in the playtest. Keep up the good work.
Loving the game so far. I see more to come.
at some point you crushed Nickdorfpal for 7 points of damage when you switched to heal him.
Oh my god im going through withdrawls right now. I hope theres a new test coming soon cause this last playtest was incredible.

Can’t wait to try this. I love the desert and the giants.
fun to watch; i found you by way of youtube algorithm
would be cool to have a giant dust cloud when he slams fist on ground
or he does a crazy spin and the whole screen goes into a giant dust bowl and you get slow DOT

I cant wait to play this!! I missed Ever quest so much and this i know will be a new love
What is the default location where this installs please? i have installed this and enjoyed it alot, i would like to play again but i cant locate it ? any help would be nice
I believe it's: C:\mnmlauncher\MnMLauncher.exe
But confirm in Discord if that doesn't work.

just a heads up the Early Access Info link seems dead
Ahh... yeah, we just swapped that around. Let me fix it. Thanks!
I need more M&M. I had a taste of the good good during the recent June test. Now no game is hitting the itch like M&M did...

Just some feedback 😊👍
Easy Answer: Already cleared all that content :)
@@Spendleton if it was about content, then I would just continue playing EQ live etc as they drop new content each year 😉😊
We haven't discussed anything like that, but it's an interesting thought.
No pants and a stiff lantern?? Scandalous

Nope, they're staying as they are. Thanks for the comment! Every bit helps feel the algorithm.

What a joke of a game in 2024....eq2 from 2006 looks better
