The Final Moments of Asheron's Call 2

Posted by Zonk on Tuesday January 3, 2006 @12:47PM from the not-with-a-bang dept.

Via Kotaku, the final moments of Asheron's Call 2 in text and images. Highlights include the in-game appearance of a community moderator, and a killable version of a notorious dragon. Then, a lost connection. Gamespot has the story as well. From that article: "Turbine performed a little house cleaning this weekend as it shut down its massively multi-player online role-playing game Asheron's Call 2. Originally released in November of 2002, the fantasy game world met an unceremonious armageddon December 30. As of press time, the Asheron's Call 2 forums were still up for mourning players, and blow-by-blow accounts of the world of Dereth's final moments had started circulating the Web. "

They should have gone out with a bang by Zork+the+Almighty · 2006-01-03 13:46 · Score: 2, Funny

I would have liked to see them go out with a bang. Unleash hordes of monsters into the towns and have the server randomly modify items!
