    From Praetor Mandrake@21:1/5 to All on Fri Aug 18 20:22:31 2023
    I played Phantasy for the first time. When it was about time to give the medium shield to a certain player (over another), I woke up and was like what the fuck is going on. This was what I liked, being quartermaster for a bunch of adventurers. Good
    equipment is one of the secrets to RPGs.

    Elite Dangerous is an MMORPG. But you can't give someone else a ship
    or a piece of your gear...though other players can help, you have
    to grind it on your own.

    That's probably for the better. When it's the other way around, it seems like everybody else but you has the nice gear. I remember I was making my way up the Wow ladder on my own when one of my roommates got a nice gift of 9 gold from his friends to
    help him start out. I barely played at all with the person who introduced me.
