Or how about no leviathan at all!
(it was a later addition to the godlands arriving at the same time as Sphinx/Tomb were added to the game.)
Memories of hearing “it’s too tough for 0/8 to fight” complaints.

I’ll try and pull one out of the memory that I’ve not seen mentioned before on RE forum:

Djinn used to have a chat line, sorta matched well with the creepy zoning in on the player movement it does.
Djinn
<Djinn> I come for you, my master

Not sure when the vow of silence started.

I joined in August of 2015.

Reading this threw me for a bit of a nostalgia trip. I’d be lying if I didn’t say I’m a little choked up reading it now. Not entirely because of realm, but because, well, that period literally lines up with my life. When realm was quiet and stable, my life was. I was 15, times were simpler. So, get ready for a little bit of me waxing poetic.

I very fondly remember farming sprite worlds on a shitty wizard for hours and hours, going back to the trading server and making a cute little ASCII sign with the words: “Ye Olde Potte Shoppe, selling (insert whatever potions I had) since 1242”. I slowly maxed my wizard that way. I was satisfied with it.

I remember trading def pots for each of those items. I even remember the exact day I got that expo. It was about 4:00, almost dinnertime. I was farming labs and sprites with @OpticFiber, one of my old realm pals. It was my first significant UT drop. I remember being elated and having to log off for dinner shortly afterwords. Dinner was spaghetti. I made the garlic bread, as usual. I bragged to my mom, “it’s crazy, I literally got the best ring in the game for a wizard”. She was happy I was happy.

Years later, and literally thousands of dollars later, I have yet to capture the emotional intensity of that memory. I don’t think I ever will, with realm, at least. Throwing money at this cluttered, frenetically money hungry version of my favorite childhood game has brought me no joy. I’ve finally given up trying to recreate the times I remember so well. Yeah, it makes me really sad. I do hope Unity works out and the game is given new life. But I probably won’t be playing. I don’t want to try and make the memories again. I’ll let them be.

I remember when pet size depended on the pet skin. Rare pets were zooming around as large as divine pets.

Remember when people had to search for the monsters in ice cave while people stay at the “leech pad” or “snow pad”.

#64

I’m glad that was changed.

#65

You forgot its other name

#66

I remember sometimes dragging one minion into the bit that the group had already cleared, to see how long it took them to find. :smiling_imp:

#67

I never knew Nevov had an evil side o.O

Remember when everything was SB for a period and I was so sad couldn’t pick up horror staves…

#68

Oh god, I remember always checking my map to see where I have been. That would have been horrible. Then again I gave up clearing once people went into the portal before I could tp.
