Hell yeah it is. RO gifs are always amazing to watch. Love the pixelated art of that game. :smiley:

RO was so charming. I’m glad ToS played up the artstyle of RO and kept a lot of reminiscent qualities of it.

But they still got nothin’ as sexy as a shadow chaser.

I must say, tho ToS is very reminiscent of RO, those two are completely different from each other. Gameplay, art style, classes, monsters, story, even the music (though from the same artist). The term spiritual successor applies to ToS very well.

I agree that they are definitely different and have defining features creating that differentiation, but I feel like the artstyle/music are actually very, VERY similar; I could never shake the feeling of nostalgia while listening to the music in the mines, in particular.

The classes even are also pretty similar in a lot of ways–at least conceptually if not mechanically; like “linker” being a class, but being vastly different from RO to ToS. If you go Wiz -> Linker -> Thaumaturg then what you’ve got is something incredibly similar to the RO Linker class. Likewise, if you go Wiz -> Pyro/Cryo -> Elementalist, you can create something very similar to RO Wizard Class. Go cleric -> Priest and you’ve got something very similar to RO Priest.

ToS definitely added more potential for variety with classes, but I am still hesitant about whether or not that’s a good thing based on their sort of poor execution of it in my mind. I feel like they tried to do too much, and in doing so, many classes do not have solidified identities or unique playstyles.

…Off topic! 8D

Oddly it’s the only active server I can ping out of all the previous that were open in icbt2 XD

You make a lot of good points. And I do agree that their attempt to allow a lot of diversity may just end up with a lot of people being jacks of all trades rather than a professional at any one.

Also, good conversations are lively and hop around a bit. Don’t think it’s too off topic :smiley:

@Enique - .gifs are always on topic.

@Mitsu - That is what I’m hoping a lot of people will do, it seems to be the more popular server at the moment. And I’ve seen a lot of awesome individuals calling it their home!

@Shadeborn - How are you pinging them now O.o?

#70

I loaded up the IP’s from my “serverlist_recent” and just ran a quick ping on them, only the one previously known as Laima returned anything =) So for now they likely disabled the rest and are running the original server still to set things up =)

NAME=“Laima” Server0_IP=“54.88.25.242” Server0_Port=“2000”

Although tbh it could be about anything by now, but, still XD

For an accurate latency test, use ping 54.88.25.242

Hopefully it doesn’t change! Too much confusion involved. It’d be cool if it was the one surviving server!

@Gunnr Oh hi dere. What can you teach us of our goddess of savior Laima today?
