thats false advertising - I went back to the game to see the state of my account, and every single character is unusable, Thidranki chars are useless (the free option that allowed you to turn off XP gains and RP gains is now a pay to access options) and my lvl 50 characters are also unusable (broken gear 0% condition, at least 5 items on every character - this was done by the devs because I havent played the game in 10+ years and none of the gear I had equipped was destroyed with 0% condition)... The game like most other game is falling into the hands of the cash grab companies. ANY of the features I looked into to help me come back to the game ended with the same outcome, you need to pay real world money or else you cannot play. I am truly truly sadened after installing the game and trying to test it out, the game is literally pay to play now, free to play is not a thing in DAOC sorry to say.

Dark Age of Camelot was the first MMORPG I ever played, I played it with my dad as a kid. We'd be in the same room, on different PCs. I was Midgard, a giant rock troll thing, warrior and I remember there was so much...wonder to the world. I remember seeing this rare creature near a town called Nalliten, this kraken or loch ness sort of monster, and when we tried to look it up online, there was no information. The world was massive, it felt like every valley was truly unmapped and unknown.

This was the greatest MMORPG of all time. 8man Emain groups. Keeping your toons in DF until Hibs took it. Getting artifacts in Trials of Atlantis. Heading out to take Relics from other realms. Will never be realized again. I was a RR11 ML10 scout on my main. Mystic Council of Camelot guild. I used to lead 200 man raids into Hib and Mid. 15 hour raids. It was the best time of my gaming career. Thank you for the memories NerdSlayer.

Yeah, I had played every single class- a few times over. Nowadays I'd be lucky to even want to play 1 class past level 20 in an MMO. I think it was the pacing and the feeling of achievement, everything was such a struggle to accomplish (unless you got plvled). PvP had consequence, PvE was brutal, each class had something unique, I miss it so much :\

Tristan Mid here. I still remember the ~800 man raid on the Hib RKs. I still remember holding off the albs at AMG, the catapults firing, the thunder hammers slamming into the ground, and in chat "We have the first three. Heading to second RK." I remember the goosebumps I had when the other two massive groups holding the hibs at the two BKs continued to report successfully keeping them out of the frontier. And then the servers crashed and reset. One of the most bittersweet and disappointing/awe inspiring days of my gaming life. No game has ever come even close to DAOC, and at this point, I doubt one ever will.

DAoC was the best video game I have ever played. I have so many great memories in DAoC. I still remember the day it was released in Germany. Back then people used to order physical copies of the game and you had to wait for it to get shipped to your house in order to play. I preordered the game on Amazon. I still remember the game released on a Friday in February 2001. I came home from school at noon, checking our mailbox first thing being home. There was the physical copy, shipped on time. I was so happy and eager to play. I installed the game and logged in for the first time. I still remember how the game drew me in right away, how amazing it was playing an RPG with other people online. I rolled a Briton Scout and had absolutely no idea about classes or meta builds. Just played the game the way I felt was the most fun. Chatting with people, forming groups, exploring the lands of Albion. It was truly amazing. A close friend of mine, who lived a few houses down the road, got the game too. He didn't have a PC at home, but we had multiple at our house, so he would always come over and we'd play together. I rerolled a Troll Thane. I remember how cool it was traveling around Midgard and steadily advancing my character. First time RvR, going to Svasud Faste, buying a Medaillon and being ported to the lands of Hibernia. There were a few Hibs camping MTK, I remember charging down the hill with some fellow Norsemen and engaging in an intense battle. I remember sitting there, my heart racing, the sheer excitement of facing members of an enemy realm for the first time on the battlefield. This was when everyone was only around level 35-40 and not many 50s were around yet. People still went to the frontiers, to explore them, to invade enemy lands and to defend the homeland. Later on, there community was what really stood out on our server. It was truly about realm pride. When the alliance leaders called, everyone rushed to the frontiers to defend the relic keeps or got together to carry out late night ambushes in enemy territory. And of course there were the famous 8 man setgroups, who already had a pretty good sense of strategy and organization back then and thus were dominating in RvR. I did not play that competitively back then, but it was great hearing about the deeds of them. There were a few infamous Hib groups on our server, who would regularly wipe 40 or 50 man enemy zergs with a single 8 man pbaoe group. The kill spams were glorious. You could really make a name for yourself on the battlefield. I remember taking walks with my friend, we could talk for hours about the game. We would talk about famous players on our realm, would theorycraft about setups and specs you could play, would relive battles that had happened in the frontiers or Darkness Falls Raids we were joining. DAoC was and is a fantastic game, I am thankful that I had this opportunity of playing the game in it's prime days. It will always be one of my great childhood memories and have a special place in my heart.

Nowadays gaming looks so very different when compared to that time; there's such a smaller emphasis in community, if at all.

I shed a tear watching this. So many great memories playing DAoC. I can still vividly remember my first night playing when the servers opened at launch. Started as a Thane in Gotar running down the road killing bugs or whatever it was. I loved the aesthetics in the game. Over 4 or 5 years It was the one game I would return to. Wish I could relive that time again. So much fun just grouping up with random just leveling, exploring or PvPing in either the frontiers or battlegrounds. Main things that put me off the game was Visions of Atlantis grinding to be competitive, the plague that was buffbots that killed support class players, constant nerfing and community fighting. In all my time playing, I never played a Hibernian character once. Was always Midgard or Albion.

DAoC’s wildly addictive PvP is what has kept it limping along for a long time. It is by far the most strategic, intricate and fast paced PvP I’ve ever played. I left and went back so many times because 8vX PvP is to this day the best online gaming experience I’ve ever had. Far more so than high-ranked WoW progression or WoW arena.

I have to say that the interrupt is what made me love the game, because you needed skill to make sure that you can cast and not get interrupted by a mob. It also made you look at the other players and your interrupt coult take heals and DPS of the enemy team or stop their CC. When the game "died" I took a WoW trial and was thought "what a noob game... mobs dont chancel your casts, this is easy mode... get on my level!" I think the only thing that i hated a bit was that i got bored from constandly pressing 31 31 31 31 31 31 31 because 3 was the "do if" attack and 1 was the "anytime" attack as a melee class and 2 was my stick macro, while 4 was my shildslam.

Morrowind launched in 2002 LUL. That aside, as I explain in the video. I don't hammer hard on specific details with the games patches/expansions on purpose. There's a much bigger story here, and frankly DAOC game design choices don't really even tell a fraction of their problems (budget, market saturation, good competition, abandoned for another MMO development). So whatever "story" needs to be told, in this case a less game detail specific one. As long as we can try and piece together why something failed, that's our ultimate goal with this series :). Here are some of the pop charts I used in the video. gaheris.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1447 www.granks.com/daoc/statistics forums.darkageofcamelot.com/discussion/886/population-update-year-on-year smmobl.wordpress.com/tag/mmog-chart/

DAOC was the most demanding in skill and teamwork for PvP and will always be a benchmark for hard core PvP players in MMOs. It's always been my favorite online game. I even think warhammer would have been great if they had kept the 3 realm model because the mechanics were good. But the 2 realm model always sees lopsided PvP population which causes server hopping. My first server on DAOC had me there for 3 years before wanting to try another realm

best mmo ever made edit: I feel compelled to reiterate this incredibly important bit of insight (since so many companies are obviously trying to capture this magic) that while yes PvP/earning faction RANK and extra abilities was the ENDGAME focus, it literally did everything else and exceptionally well.. Huge non pvp zones to level/gear up in, tons of actually interesting quests/dungeons (a PvPvE dugeon that required having control of to enter, but to get to the other factions sides you had to make it through a lot of high level mobs). Crafting, other unique ways to obtain gear introduced with ToA (artifacts) like swimming down to the bottom of the ocean for a staff that levels up the more you use it (better bring enough breathing pots) some of these encounters required a lot of help, raids, player housing with attachable consignment merchant, and faction alliances made up of multiple guilds. Each faction was completely unique in every way minus a few abilities. Sit down WoW, DAoC would never wipe my mf items and progress, tf!?

Kind of by accident 16 year old me found out about it when I was standing at the newspaper shop, deciding which of the big games magazines to buy this month. One of them had the beta of a mmo with knights & stuff on its included DVD. Decisions were made. Installed it, started a Highlander Paladin, started hitting enemies with my kilted buddy and didn't stop for several year. Nothing better than stealthy relic raids in the middle of the night, hoping that the enemy didnt see anybody and that the server doesnt crash or the usual 8v8 rounds through Hadrians Wall.

Not sure modern gamers will make tha game as fun as DaOC was...too much influence from mobas and other games has turned most of them into toxic salty boys who dont have the abiity to organise in ways that would allow for true rvr battles...well unless you count huge guilds who basically ruin the experience for the rest with their shitty attitudes like archeage ended up with.

@@brokenserenity01 I get what you mean, however it is worth noting that none of these other MMO games with large PvP or RvR for that matter we built around it's RvR exclusively. They almost always have PvE or some other feature that massively drained resources. Or they just became pay to win. There are things you can learn from modern gaming to make the combat experience better, but there was certainly a grain of awesomeness that DaoC stubbed upon that absolutely should be preserved. And honestly, from what I've seen in CU, I think they have. Guess that is what happens when you have the same mastermind behind it all.

Awesome video :) I have played DAoC nearly from launch, I played WAR from launch to almost when it was closed and ESO etc. But I always return back to DAoC and play to this day. It is so unique with its combat mechanics like casters cant cast when attacked, etc, that there is no other MMO that even comes close. When WoW launched, DAoC really dropped a lot in population, but what kept people around was the pvp and the look. A lot of people just didn't like the cartoony look of WoW (including me, never played WoW :) ). I currently play DAoC on private servers but from time to time I resub back to live and i hope to do so for years to come.

There was true realm pride and people would really get into it on the IGN forums, til IGN took the sjw route and banned everyone. I could go on for a year but I wont. It's the greatest mass pvp game ever. It's pve was awesome too. Salute to all DAOC pkayers. Hail to Hibernia.

50? As I remeber top level was 20. And it really wasn't a bad grind. The game was made to play at if 20. Up to max level was designed to get you to know your charactor. Which was nice. However RvR was 100% set to favor Albion. Hibernia was ok. And Midguard severely penalized. As if to say if you are a weak butt pirate you will win. If you are a fearsome Viking. You will lose. In between, Hibernia you have some chance. But butt pirates rule.

Oh my! This main theme, sweet, sweet memories. EU Lyonesse Hibbi here! Thanks for this trip down memory lane. Surely one of the best pvp centric games ever. I just want to make one addition to the "why it fails" list. Besides the things already mentioned in the video and by various comments, one major flaw was the widespread use of so-called "buff-bots". This was in fact in the later stages of the game something almost mandatory for the sake of staying competitive. It requires a second or even a third account for just having a shaman (skald), druid or cleric standing around the border keep maintaining buffs for you and your group. But... but even with all its flaws, it was my best pvp gaming experience ever and will probably ever be. Thanks again buddy for bringing this up. Bye!

Greeting Nerdslayer. Another great investigation. With the trend of crowdsourced, RvRvR games or PvP centric games (such as Camelot Unchained, Ashes of Creation, and Crowfall), coming to the forefront of the mmo landscape, what features do you think will capture the mmo audience? Many mmo fans seem to be drawn toward player created cities and housing, meaningful crafting, and a general sense that the player themselves with control the game space. This perplexes me because other games with these system haven’t been able to make them central to the actual gameplay. For example, crafting has never, as far as I have experienced, effected endgame loops other than potion crafting, enchanting, or minor stat gains. It always feels like once a player gains his endgame setup, that all progression stops and crafting becomes superfluous, save for minor consumables. I would like to hear your thoughts on professions or crafting within the mmo landscape as a whole, and if time allows specific games. Thanks again for the video, much appreciated.

DAoC had arguably most boring crafting, but it was essential for PvP (before Trials of Atlantis that is). You were almost guaranteed to have same quality of armor as your opponents. You could create your own character build simply by spending gold on items. In contrast, WoW had very imbalanced PvP because your performance was hugely affected by items gained in PvE grind. If you didn't have good PvE guild, you couldn't compete in PvP either. Thanks to crafting, PvP in DAoC was more reliant on a player skill than gear.

Ahh that brought back so many memories! especially the Hibernia music (it still excites me). I did leave for EverQuest2 and I'm still there though I have tried several other MMOs. Now looking forward to Ashes of Creation. The flaw so many games had after DAoC was not having 3 factions; 2 just doesn't have staying power. I have to admit I was more into the PvE side of the game, but when I was in the mood, RvR was a blast. I did briefly go back to DAoC, but I noticed that the same bugs that were there back in the day were still around. It just wasn't as exciting anymore, and not being guilded, and the low population. Good luck on Camelot Unchained.

Recap for future dev's, key takeaways for PvP Games of what your player base wants: -3 Factions Promotes Balance, limiting to two has cause massive imbalance issues by shear population in almost every game (think WoW Horde/Alliance War Mode ratios 10:1?). -Players want UNIQUE classes, never mirrored classes. Just putting a new name/color to your faction doesn't promote replayability whatsoever. Think Rock/Paper/Scissors, beautiful design. -You don't needs loads of content updates for PvE to have a thriving PvP game, stat softcap/hardcaps worked extremely well with DAoC templates. You didn't have to play the game for years to get the best gear possible. It was more skill/player driven. -Add PvP Progression, the realm ability system was amazing for encouraging you to work on your characters, unlocking new ranks that allowed you to tweak your spec when you got +skill, such as lowering a requirement for Stealth and adding points to boost your Weapon Skill or New Styles at breakpoints. Getting rank points and overall skill points for PvP that you could either spend on Active or Passive abilities to strengthen your character, or unlock a new AoE CC/Burst Heal/Instant Root added so much more flavor to the base game as you got more veteran levels and points to work with. These abilities weren't guaranteed fight winners, but the abilities were strong enough to surprise your opponent. -Positional Requirements for Ability Chains (Mostly Melee), having positional abilities added so much flavor to the game. Having a dual wield class flying in to try and open with a side stun chain always felt rewarding if executed properly. There was a spell queue system with a main ability/backup ability, which allowed you to try and do a specific conditional style (as if your opponent evaded your attack) to strike with the conditional if met, if not you could use an "anytime" ability as a backup. Or if you knew you were going to get someones back or side positional, you could use those as the primary/backup pair to punish your opponent for your bonuses, or stuns/snares/dmg procs etc. This gets away from the "Hit the button that lights up - WoW Effect", you have to try and predetermine your opponents actions instead of having your UI make it so obvious on what button you should press next. -World / Roaming PvP is much more fun than instanced PvP. If the world is dynamic to the point where any faction can gain realm-wide buffs, then it gives incentive to rally people and get something going if action is dull during certain hours. Check out the DAoC Relic System for Reference. Roaming around with a group to take an objective or strictly find another group was a big thrill! You always had to be on your toes in the RvR areas. -Balance the classes enough so small groups can outskill the masses if they execute properly. DAoC CC was unforgiving, the element of surprise allowed 4-8 man groups to completely topple zergs running around if they didn't try to counter-play the opening AoE CC. AoE Mezz was so rewarding to land on clumps of people, then assist everyone down. Not to mention taking on the masses raked in the realm points! This encouraged the realm point hungry players to use risk/reward of being outnumbered to get a bigger cut of realm points. While zerg surfers could still do their thing and have fun. Solo/Smallman/8man/Zerg all had a place in the game, and could gain realm points effectively. -Don't allow spammable CC, DAoC did it completely right putting immunity on a player for that CC type after it wore off or was removed/purged. This encourages landing the Surprise CC and punishing a group if they don't counter-play it with purge and dispelling group members. This also doesn't force players to sit in rolling never-ending CC chains like RMD/RMP in WoW Arena. Believe it or not, people do enjoy playing their characters more than 20% of a fight. -Caster Interruption when taking non-dot damage, this forced everyone to learn how to CC for eachother and promote synergy/skill whether it was Melee or Caster damage, this forced players to learn how to kite. I remember how weird it was going from DAoC to WoW, and just sitting there getting smashed on by mobs and being able to spam cast without interruption. This allows you to create a game that doesn't require every class under the sun to have some sort of kick interrupt. It organically happens if your casters or melee are dmg/cc'ing the proper targets. Realm abilities opened room for counter-play with uninterrupted casts (Mastery of Concentration), or a baseline Quickcast for a single spell with a static 3 second cast to get off available every 30 seconds. Choose your spell wisely, whether it's to CC, Remove CC, Heal etc. It could be your last for the fight :) -Don't show enemy cast bars/buffs/debuffs. This encourages players to visually pay attention to what classes are casting which spells. In DAoC, if you were trying to dispel enemy buffs, you had to know what buff type you were going for specifically to shear. You didn't just spam a single button to removed every "magic" buff on a character like WoW until it says nothing to purge... This adds flavor to the game, not to mention the dedicated cleric/shaman/druid roles loved having some offensive nature to them outside of being a healbot. Buffs were a BIG deal. The underlying metagames felt very good, not just focusing on outdamaging/outhealing your opponents to victory. Create many ways to outplay your opponents, not just focusing on who lasted the longest mana bar wise. This ended up much longer than I thought, I'd be happy to elaborate more if there was ever a real project looking to recreate the DAoC finesse that we all wish still existed. The creator of the video did an EXTREMELY good analysis/breakdown of what the possible causes and facts were about DAoC falling behind. Everyone I know that played DAoC still gets that "DAoC Itch" that they can never quite scratch when it comes to other games and lust for the same style of PvP, but with a modern engine/UI. People were happy to pay 30/month for a main and bot buff account for many years, I don't think the monthly sub was the issue, it was mostly the aging engine/UI that made it unable to attract a newer generation of gamer. I think the energy focused on DAoC Maintenance should be energized into modernizing the game with a DAoC 2 using Unreal Engine or something of that nature. The core mechanics, realm rank system, progression and PvE to PvP ratio's were fantastic. This would get lots of crowd funding if they stayed true to existing DAoC mechanics, and a fresh environment/engine with modern functionality. We just need to deliver on a clean/modern looking game, on a streamlined engine and platform so it can allow new people to be attracted to the game.
