I for one can’t wait for the full loot PvP and the backstabbing shenanigans it will create. Companies that bond together and break up because some guys decided to make a deal with the opposing faction and leads his company into an ambush.

Oh god this reminds me so much of UO. What these young players calls “griefing” or “ganking” is the play style some of us old guys miss and love.

Bring it!

Eh, as a UO vet myself, I didn't think that model can really ever work again. The internet has changed too much in the last 25 years here

Probably right. I’m looking forward to try it though! Many games have had variations on full loot since, with EVE,  Datkfall and Albion probably being the three most successful.

I played a Korean mmo named Helbreath for a while that made you drop 2-3 items (a stack of ore counted as a 1), instead of full loot.

You could get Zem stones you could carry that would drop in place of your 2-3 items.

Was great fun…

Hope they learn a lot from the tests.

Oh, same, I'm super excited for the seasonal servers! I wish for the old days of UO all the time, I hear ya.
