I played Gustin server long time DarkestSpells

[@kevinb9830]

That game was the most atmospheric, magical game I've ever played

[@BobStallmanArchUser]

i agreem but that time is gone, it will never be the same again for l2.

[@robertharding8394]

I played Gustin server was the best game ever

[@robertharding8394]

Lineage 2 used to be an amazing game years ahead of the rest of MMOs. Mass pvp, mass siege, clans fighting for epic raid bosses in order to get loot etc. but unfortunately now is a bot fest, fully pay2win. Ncsoft has removed all items from the game (looting items from mobs/bosses) and they have added them for real money, it's a casino. You pay real money and you have like 1%-10% chance to get something good. Official servers are corrupted. Ofc, l2 has a very huge community, millions of players around the world that are playing on private servers.

[@IlMPlI]

Millions of players?

[@justalexism]

Such an amazing game to play in my childhood. I remember playing for hours and listening to the game soundtrack.

[@Jo-er5zm]

It was a game I started playing in 2007 and played for a long 12 years, a game where you still had to think and nothing was given for free, hours of farming, bosses who were not for everyone, and battles that lasted for hours. The best period of my gaming life which I would return to without hesitation, so much nostalgia, many friends from all over the world. An unforgettable stage of my life.

[@seed2753]

Man how did I even forget about this game. This game was so magical to me back in the day.

[@kafredo]

my first serious mmorpg back in 2006. enjoyed the mass pvp and server politics between clans. such a great feeling capturing and defending castles. directing clan members on a wyvern. and messing up the server's 7 signs efforts lol. I remember having the clan's PK experts camp out at the castle siege registration npc to PK any other players who were trying to register for a siege.

[@EternalGR]

No, lineage 2 was suppose to be hard core expirience without any sort of "boting" but some intelligent player found many ways to break the game so it kind of "force" the auto farm system and the fact that all lineage2 players made families and didnt have the time they use to back then

[@CalgarGTX]

Yeah I tried US retail L2 Aden server after 15 years of not having touched any version of the game, and I struggle to understand why anybody would touch that. They turned the game into a full solo autofarm experience, like why even start the game at all just to leave your char farming somewhere 24/7, but they still try to sell you loot boxes and quality of life features, why would anybody buy them for, make their autofarm bot life better lol ?

[@teratokomi8731]

The massive exp boosts were not in the original game. Thanks for this video, I was thinking about playing again, but I can see that it is total and complete trash now.

[@sanquineo]

You absolutely have to play on private server, up to H5 chronicle. Next chronicles in line after it are bad... Implementing auto farm etc. Also, lineage is a clan game... you need to have active clan who is participating in raids and most importantly caste sieges. Otherwise you will not experience true lineage. And also, solo exp is an absolute pain on low rates, you should definitely run a few game windows with supports.

[@ThisisNasko]

Ill definitely check it out as i was looking for that L2 experience that most players got before this whole mess happened.

[@DHo-jg1qv]

Gotta check L2Reborn private servers. There are a few in there launcher to try different rates and different expansions. Some are pvp seasonal servers and some are progressive. I classic classic low rate server is to launch in like 140 days or something. If you want your chance to experience real l2 from the beginning. Theres now dual box (everyone can only play one account) or p2w so its as authentic as it can get. gl hf hope to see you there!

[@DHo-jg1qv]

A classic classic low rate* Theres NO dual box****

[@Lennji]

I love your video, it just shows the massive confusion as a new player on official servers. I tried to play the official servers last year and was a bit confused too, and I've played L2 back in the day on both private servers and Officials ones (20 years ago). I think High Five was the peak L2 expansion, so if yout want to try this game and experience it at its best, go find a private server with that expansion. There are lots of servers with tons of ppl still playing. Official servers have been long dead thanks to corporate greed.

[@ThisisNasko]

Appreciate you watching!

[@Agent0013th]

Played L2 back in 2004 until 2009. I had an elf ranger back then, and seeing the elf town and aden here brought back memories.. The best & most unique MMOrpg for me.

[@robertharding8394]

I played Gustin was first to have chant of victory on my server

[@VirusLisT095]

On the main servers the game starts at level 105, that's why you leveled fast and thought that something wrong. For a real experience you need to play on private servers. For me greatest out of them is Elmorlab that is based on C4 update that came out back in 2005 and it has x1 exp rates.

[@STFNmoto]

l2 reborn is good too if you're not russian

[@pepsipwns666]

My favourite mmorpg for 15+years but after the first 4 years~ never on the retail version as they absolutely destroyed the game. Private servers are where the main serious players continued playing on older updates of the game from C5 to interlude to gracia final. Watching this bastardized version of the game as your first experience is soul destroying. EVEN classic is an utter mess. Auto play, and teleporting you about, this is horrific. A serious server would have thousands of players starting around the same time, racing to be the best, in order to participate in mass pvp to control castles, control raid boss spawns and their extremely important loot. PvP was heavily team based and clans are necessity, an amazing time!

[@ThisisNasko]

Thank you for watching and thank you for letting me know that. I thought i was doing something wrong lol

[@STFNmoto]

Private servers is where it's at. Official L2 is nothing close to resembling L2

[@gamejimmy2972]

This is for me still one of the best mmorpg till now, but people now dont like hardcore grinding game anymore

[@kingarzal1502]

You should try Lineage 2 Project Eva...

i am subbing to him just for trying the mother of all mmorpgs

[@dimoronen]

Why did you ever touch official L2? :D If you wanna see what L2 is like wait for a real server to open. L2 Reborn in october/november, scryde x2 12th of july or eglobal in October/November. Be there the first day, it will be unlike anything you've seen in a MMO. Absolute madness. :D

[@15Xan]

L2 is special for me, so many friends till today :) I loved L2 because of pvp, mass pvp, fighting for bosses, hard farming, doing trains, hero status, game had everything i needed until ncsoft decided to ruin it, My last stand was on Giran classic - people botted, they didnt care, after all they added free autofarm and went fully p2w :( its a shame people decided to put real money into game :(

[@robertharding8394]

Hated when everyone went to wow

[@jahjacsgo3507]

Bro this game is seriously nothing compared to what it was before. This game was good from Prelude open beta - Chronicles 4 After that everything went downwards, everytime I see how the game became I just wanna cry. You will never relive the real lineage 2.

[@Ausf.D.A.K.]

Yeah, C3-C4 was the most fun.

[@LoOtMiLkeR]

the game is not dead people play on pro servers and on hi hi lvl bro this game is so huge it would take you like half year to go 15 regulary

[@realitycheck1000]

L2 classic is extremely toxic. Too many trolls play and you will go broke for attemtping to catch up. You will never catch up to the people who wasted their life savings playing this game. You will get pkd and prevented to hunt so you cannot earn any adena and you will stop leveling once you hit lvl 86. Do not start playing ever! You have been warned. But if you do.....then I wish you nothing but the best!

[@laoch5658]

this is not classic lineage 2

[@grimworld7564]

go L2 Scryde bro. GM's are unique and server unique,h5 chronicle with extra features and x1000 x100 x1 rates to choose

[@Entropy383]

Past lineage and any new versions are basically different games which have nothing in common except for some visuals. Old versions can be found on private servers but you'll get struck on youtube for making videos of these. But the game itself never was good in the first place, even in its best years. It looked good for people who didn't know how to play it properly. Balance was terrible and the only reason this game gained some popularity is players' lack of ingame mechanics knowledge back then.

[@ThisisNasko]

Damn, you get a youtube strike if you make a private server video for L2?

[@shw1ner]

@@ThisisNasko i dont think so, never heard of it and there is actually a lot of videos of private servers

@@ThisisNasko Извинявай, че чак сега отговарям. Играл съм я почти от началото и тогава беше голяма зарибявка и до 2011-2012 беше супер, но след това нещата взеха да вървят на зле, но все пак влизах от време на време да я играя. Последно влезнах преди може би 2-3 години и едвам я познах. Превърнаха я в някаква мобилна игра, пълна с ботове и трябва да плащаш за да напреднеш. Ако искаш някога да видиш, какво е представлявала тази игра, пробвай L2 Reborn. Всеки, който е играл този сървър казва, че най-много прилича на Л2 от онези години и съм съгласен. Пробвах го и аз, но нямам чак толкова много време да му посветя, както преди. Бих ти препоръал този сървър вместо оригинала. Развалиха за жалост една от любимите ми игри :(

I was a Lineage 2 player for many years, played with some of the biggest clans, like the Nova clan where Steaven Sherrif (yes, the creator of Ashes of Creation) was the clan leader. Unfortunately, NCSoft let the game die because they literally allowed bots and transform the game into a pay2win paradise (I made a lot of money selling itens to the whales back in the day). It was a really good MMO, what you see today in official servers, is a version of the game where they transform it to be an AFK game, with bot functions inside the game and that fuck up everything, but the original experience of leveling UP, you still can taste it on private servers that they run low rate servers just like the old days and those servers are SO MUCH BETTER than the official. A good exemple of servers with original configurations to experience what it was like back in the days is a server called l2reborn. you should take a look at it

[@ThisisNasko]

Oh man you were in a guild with Steven? Thats epic. I just hope AoC lives up to the expectations.

[@shw1ner]

@@ThisisNasko Me and a lot of players, i never had direct contact with him, my party was full of brazilians and we where only one of many parties in the clan, only the party leader had direct contact, at that time, every clan had almost 1,5k players in the alliance, so we must only group up the clan and the alliance when it was for some epic boss or siege war, events of mass pvp. He was the best clan leader i ever had tbh, even with so many players in the alliance, we still got a plenty of itens because we where active and we were a very good party.
