@Konrad Knox I really do miss the good day of Entropia, it had such great potential and they squandered it time and again. I used to log in from time to time, just for nostalgia, but now days I'm only greeted with disappointment whenever I log in.
I started play this game since 2003 when it had been launched first time. I can remember sky full of colors. It was awesome with connection of the this old soundtrack. People could have real feeling of totally different world.
I miss the old Sky and the ambiente of the original project entropia. After they switched the engine the game was never the same again. From the music, to the locations and the lore the original PE was full of secret promises and wonders. Too bad mindark was never able to make use of all the latent potential this game once had. These days its just some kind of expensive 3d chat full of boring grind and nothing left to discover
I loved Project Entropia back in 2002-2004, it truly felt alien and it was fun to just run around the world and look for new little neat spots when you didn't feel like hunting, mining, or crafting. They've upped the mob density to the point that it's obvious that it's nothing more than a grinding zone - it no longer feels like a believable world. The old days had less content, but more soul - the first ever land grab event, the space race to repair all the hangars, the old Entropia Pioneers forums... the community was great back then and it really made the game something special. I still miss the gibberish that avatars would spout while gesturing when you were typing - it animated conversations in such an organic way. I still log in sometimes, look around, then log out... Nostalgia goggles and nothing more these days.
A tribute to a time long gone, to my early 20s, to my old friends, with sadness and bitter sweet fondness I remember the beginning of Entropia, how simple and fun things were, how many friends I made, friends who separated into different corners of the world. I am alive. I remember.
damn this gave me shivers. I was the one hanging out with you that day long ago Konrad :) is me in picture i think starting at 12:48. -- Ford Zippo LincolnMercury I miss this version of the game so damn much Cheers m8!!!
I love this music, I miss the way this game used to feel. I'll still be here, always remembering that we were all there, during the good times. For those who knew me, Dreznin "Inifus" Drakani wishes you all well.
Nothing gives me nostalgia more than this soundtrack. Used to love late nights running around with a noob OF-finder trying to stay alive with big spiders around. Now listening to this again, I realise that perhaps it's the soundtrack that made the experience so special.
Well that and also back then for what videogames we had available, it was a unique fully realized sci fi universe that so many games since have copied and improved the feel of. But the main thing is that before the big greed inflation, the game had community. Entropia was FULL of people and it depended on people for any meaningful content, so it was full of content. Like a big party in sci fi Las Vegas. You could make money, the stakes were high, you could be like my character who came from nothing, deposited nothing, and hit it big on a lucky strike, then rode the social wave of selling blessings as a priest and teaming up with people bringing them luck. Making my own story. That was the special thing, the feeling. You could make your own story. Or maybe we were just young and excitable. But we were alive!
since my last comment i have returned to the game and im happy i did return. its nice to connect with everyone ingame again. not as good as it once was but still im having fun ingame and meeting new people.
I miss you Project Entropia, I don't like what you have become so unfortunately I had to let you go, Though I still have this soundtrack to nostalgically remember the many awesome years I had, the great people I meant, the friends I made exploring calypso. PE you will always hold a place in my heart and mind, I will wipe away the tears from my eyes and just be thankful I got to experience you at your very best.
Lootius Bless, brother. I am alive. I remember. Our souls once wandered in that virtual beautiful land. Now I turned my gaze to Star Citizen. It has that gripping freedom and exploration.
Awesome. Thanks for putting this content out. It brings back many wonderful memories. I really miss these days. Often when I catch myself day dreaming, my mind is drifting back to these good old days. Cheers.
Remember forever, my friend. We all wandered in that beautiful animated world, when our virtual souls sought reprieve and a place to belong and dream. Entropia was a paradise. Lootius Bless You!
I wonder why they removed these songs... they are a LOT better than the new songs... I get nostalgic when I hear them... They are so much more "spacey" than the new ones...
I think second only to Star Citizen nowadays, minus the money making. When it comes to content, that feeling of janky buggy new-ness and freedom, Star Citizen is where it's at now. And I wouldnt say that if that's not how I felt, what I felt. I log into Entropia every year, and every year it feels more and more polished and finished and ruthless and empty, and moreso like a museum full of visitors, the hard earned and crusted connosseurs, milking that rng, but not really a world full of people. Only the hardest most grandfathered and invested crafters who played the long game and lucked out on still being alive, are left. Hunters are dead. But Star Citizen makes me feel that awe and wonder and everyone is clueless and experimenting.

Wow, i forgot all about this game. After playing Legend of Mir for an absolute age, a friend talked me into trying this out. I never really got into it. I then went onto trying out Earth and Beyond, Eve, and eventually got into WoW in april 2005. Quit WoW week before BFA release in 2018 after 13 years. I went back for classic in 2019/20....quit that with 3 lvl 60's saying to myself what am i doing, doing all this again!!! Been playing Elite dangerous also since day 1 in 2014....9 years now. Project entropia is in there in my story though......thanks for this..peace
I remember when I was 6 or so and watching my dad play and just be mowing down a lot of creatures like atroxs and stalkers and what not with the ravenger mk2 minisweeper and that thing would just shred enemies like they were a potato lol i remember him having me help him by pressing the key to use his med kit and when i was like 20-21 i remember me and my little brother getting into the game and playing with our dad so this game always has a special place in my heart along with the music.❤
At that time you still had a futuristic flair with bad graphics. I can still remember exactly when I dived the first day into a world that I have not felt in any game. Ironically, this has all been lost with a new engine and better graphics. I wish I could play the old game again for a day.
You are exactly right. In the past they kept to a retrofuturistic style, orienting to Blade Runner or Aliens. Now they turned it all contemporary, essentially Batman Dark Knight.
It's hard to believe that my avatar is now more than 18 years old... this game was truly something special in the old days. Yeah, the graphics weren't great, but the world was unique and felt amazing. The community was second-to-none as well. I miss the old EP forums, the new forums have never captured the same feeling.
Awesome. Thanks loads. I have an account or two somewhere and I was just remembering the old music, back in my sweating days, so I appreciate you uploading this. I'm going to play it whilst on Guild Wars 2. :)
Once upon a time I had two apartments, one I used as a shop, guns out the ass, and some decent equipment in basically every skill area just to dabble and test things out. I made money flying people around, one of the few guaranteed ways to profit in the game. It was luxurious, and fun, I had enough built up to almost tangibly hold and enjoyed all aspects of the game, but like anything, with mismanagement, scares, lack of trust of the people in charge, I opted out. I sold everything, my apartments, my ship, my guns, my everything, everything was sold into PED, and that PED was pulled out a while back. But, oddly enough, I never chipped out, for whatever reason I could never sum up the dedication to rip the skills and experience out of my head, and even weirder is I still have a Mann MPH that my old, dead society, recruiter gave to me to set everything I did in motion, a tiny, weak gun. I'll never sell it, it's what got me started off, it's what helped get me to stick around to get all those skills and memories, they'll have to shut everything down, liquidate their assets, and delete my account to get rid of it. I'll never give that up.
Stories like this is why I posted that video. Once upon a time I was a gun priest slinging a FireForge ARR 8000 killing robots and atroxes. But what started it all is my set of block priest clothes and a Jester D-1. That weak pink little gun. I started out in Anima Mundi as a russian to english translator.
@@konradknox That's really cool, the Jester was a workhouse for starting off! I remember it really locked me in when the guy that invited me to the soc gave me the Mann, I thought it was awesome that someone was cool with passing along it, along with some ammo of course, to some random person, this digital item that was actually worth money. Never have I been more careful with my shots, more specific with my choices in any mmo, simply because I didn't want to disrespect the courtesy the person did for me. Everything was like that, gifts had impact, real cash economy wasn't just a gimmick. When I was new and still full of explorative spirit, I remember finding Deathifier's mansion in, what I believe was Treasure Island. It was open to the public so I'd walk in, look at just the raw accomplishment, everything was inspiring down the marble tables. Maybe it was a little creepy to make it a visit, but it was just so cool to see these digital works that held actual value, or the Roman Ram Purifier Prototype sitting on a pedestal by itself in an exalted manner. It was stuff like that, and the friends I made, the clients I took on, the little odd jobs, that made it all worth it and got me to where I got. It's sad to see it all decline, I guess all good things have to end but, I honestly don't know if there will ever be anything like it again. Project Entropia wasn't perfect, but I loved it warts and all because it was such a unique experience, it truly felt like you were a colonist in this alien world, making your way on a strange frontier one day at a time.
Holy Cow. Listen to this music makes me feel exactlly like the first days I played this game. The feeling of getting my hands on my first no TT rifle a FF4400. Hunting armax north of fort troy I think its called. oooooooooooh my...
***** My first rifle was the FF8000 ARR, and I never once deposited. Made 3000 PED just on luck and other people's kindness. The oil rig fights, the sweating jobs, being a runner for people, a Russian-English interpreter for societies working together, a bodyguard, an assassin... But of course I made my main living as a priest of Lootius! Taking donations for blessings of good luck! HAIL LOOTIUS! That music... yeah... it was like virtual reality had my soul born again. Played it through the night, night after night. Met so many people through the game, whom I later got to meet in real life.
Thats so long time ago. I still feel back too ;D i was even 5 years old the first days of entropia It brings many memory back to my head. because i watched my mum every day since the 1st day of the whole Game. she logged in. for years. until that day she gave me permission to play it! that time. i remember. no starter mission. it was 100% from scratch ;) I loved The project entropia best. entropia universe isnt bad ether. The project entropia was just so Amazing. :D
I remember a glitch where if you logged out while standing under certain objects, you'd log back in standing on top of them also sweat farming and the oil rig
I feel like the old version is rooted in us being young. But yes, I wish it all the time. The loot was better, the community was big, the amount of competing games bidding for attention was not as large, and subsidiaries did not fracture the playerbase scattering it among different planets.
@Cody Rauh I wish this all the time. I still log in maybe once or twice a year to see if the feeling could ever return, but it's gone. This game was something so special in the early days. Years after its removal, I still miss hearing the avatar chatter and seeing the gesturing when someone was typing - it enhanced the social aspect. I also miss when the world had large, empty expanses that looked truly alien, it really did feel like exploring a strange planet. If they'd come out with a classic version with the old world, I'd stay forever.
I started to play a month Ago after 10+ years break and im enjoying it. The game Has changed in some ways but keps its core. The community is great and Im used to the graphics. I can afford to do more things now than back then, when I was Holding on to every single PED. Those were good times though.
@@MM-nd1zz I logged in yesterday and went to one of the robot attacks at Fort Medusa, we HoF'd on the Warlock Commander. I was happy to see that they implemented a loot share for mobs tagged by multiple people.
Thanks for the share, I was considering going back into the game... but It seems like there might just be disappointment now. Me and a group of people used to hang out, splitting ammo and turning the market via the auction - one of the most memorable things was the soundtrack.
Absolutely. A memory of our souls wandering in the beautiful animated world of our childhood. I used to play Konrad Knox, the priest in black featured in the pictures, the first priest of Lootius.
I really miss what this game used to be before it became "Entropia Universe." That feeling you got when stepping into a brand new world just can't be replicated.
Descentia Yeah we all were college students back then. Did the best we could do with our time. The graphics were amazing for the standard of that time.
i started playing this game back in 2004 i loved it and still do.. in game name "guyver biomorph zoanoid" this sound track brings back the memorys of hunting with my friends daniel predator skelland and dif... got to say i loved the old syle rig... it was awesome
i miss when you could be a ghost and you had to make your own way back to a revival station... oh how i miss the old game, even if i was only 7 when i first started playing this game.
I loved this game... I played like 8 months straight between 2004 - 2005... I was fresh out of college and unemployed at the time... I don't think I could've done anything better with my time back then.... LOL
That goes to say when the game is good, people are happy, when game gets rough, only the cold hearted workaholics or the gambler fanatics have any drive left to stay
i started back in 2004 and this music brings back so much memories. running in pvp1 zone, calling upon faustian and zippo for help when i would be running from cK lol. so many memories of awesome people and amazing times. i miss this game when it was like this. i stopped playing back in 2009. i think its time for a return just to see how things are now days.
@@konradknox thats what i heard. i was in the old clan calypso thunderstruck with zippo and faustian and that whole crazy group lol. but i think ill still check it out since zip is back ingame too.
Good ol' days of everybody camping Longus in the desert cause they gave globals like nothing else... Aggroing Araneatroxes and AOA from the moment they appeared on your radar... Rei's mining tower in the middle of the PvP zone west of Orthos... Mining the veins in zig-zag patterns and almost always profiting... Treasure hunts! :D
Now those are old days, like 2002 to early 2003! I remember camping those Longus out east of Twin Peaks, the thrill of running through PvP1 when it was full of claim rods (back when they took a while to expire), making PED by working as a runner back when aggro was stuck on the first person to piss off the mob. Mob kiting was both fun and an art form, I'll always miss the fun of the old days in PE.
Hehe ... Opalo hunting Argos at Twin :) - in a Pixie armor that I collected from Daikiba, Snable and Exaro drops ... oh ... and the joy when a "vase" dropped from Berrycled :) And sweat had value. I played for a long time for free until I got ambitious and skilled enough to depo and go to bigger mobs.
@@konradknox I still keep coming back here, listening and reading through the stories from our fellow old-timers. Old Entropia was something really special, I know I'll never forget those good old times.
Mark up on items is rising dramatically during this lockdown, loads more people playing. Starting to see 150%+mu on items again, it's a very good time to start again!
Ah so nostalgic. I really liked the old Entropia better. Man, I wish I could go back in time to sweat for hours again, just to buy 20 rounds for my pistol to miss 19 shots.
I played for free around the birth of entropia, that was hard! Nowadays they give you ammo, armour and plenty more things to find. To global is not the goal. The journey is what matters!
@@aleksmilenkovic1592 i mean i dont know, i always lived for hofs and globals and the game never gave me anything for free. It was rough but the loot was there on every mob. There were never empty mobs. Having nothing salvageable from a killed animal instantly broke my immersion. Suddenly the curtain of a living ecological world fell and the cold RNG casino revealed itself. When you take down an exarosaur and it doesnt even leave a hide.
@@aleksmilenkovic1592 the spirit of the journey changed. It used to be a journey from nothing to wealth, a difficult journey in the spirit opportunity. Now it is a journey from a hand holding entry drug starter kit to eventual bankruptcy, an easy, streamlined conveyer belt journey in the spirit of player money milking.
@@konradknox Back in 2005 there was a bug that you could sweat a mob from up above. There was some transparent rig south of Hadesheim and you could sweat local Atroxes Young.
@@FrenchmanCZE Ah, good find. Didn't know about that one. My sweating grounds were usually Ithaca, Troy, Atlantis, Twin Peaks, Ares and Cape Corinth. Hadesheim was a place I visited to buy black slacks for 5 peds. Which I then sold for hundreds of peds and got rich.
Ha! I remember this game!!! And that Hadesheim... I did managed to find the fancy looking red sport car on the street... On absolutely empty street. Concrete jungle. Damn, it was so-o-o-o creepy. Scarier than anything I've seen in swamp camp.
@@konradknox Konrad. I would also like to say that I do understand you and that you are in many aspects right. But I think what has changed a lot is not the game itself. It is still there. What has changed is our lives. We are older now. The years many years ago are gone, they are past. And we can never get them back. The things we did, people we spent time and played with, it is in the past. I have the same nostaglic feeling about other things in life too. "You can't step in the same river twice" someone said. We can only cherish and remember good things, often in a bittersweet way. But life moves on. And we create new memories and experiences.
@@MM-nd1zz You surely are absolutely right. I feel like the people changed too. Oldies used to help noobs, hire bards, playerbase was bigger. It feels more isolated now. Money is tight in the game and the gauntlet is brutal. Hunting feels like a cost now rather than a chance to score.
@@konradknox I have a great mentor who I found through reddit. The community, from what I've seen, is very helpful and mature, MA staff says hello at Discord etc. Yes, loot has changed. Its easier to win back and cycle your PEDs/loose less. But you score and "hit big" less often. However, it still does happen. I scored a 63 ped global as a noob killing noob mobs Nusuls on Arkadia. I also enjoy discovering the new planets. I never visited when they were released. Some of them werent even released when I played last time.
@@konradknox Would like to reply to your comment. So, I tried EU again now for about three months. Now I'm letting it go. I am glad I gave it a chance and re-visited it, for good memories and nostalgia. But it also hurt me to see how much time has passed and how much they changed the game. Loot is completely different - Which for me changed everything. The player base is small. As you said, hunting now is a guaranteed cost, but the chance to score big is basically gone. Hunted for few months, mainly looted shrapnel and oils, basically no rare or valuable items whatsoever. The different monster leathers on Caly now drop so rare, that people stopped tailoring with Caly leathers. Same goes for mining. I cycled over 1.2K mining probes with zero globals - Zero. Only people with amps hit "big", and that is not big compared with what used to be Entropia. Some planets seem to be more or less empty. Many owned apartments are just standing there completely empty, or abandonded, their owners having left the game long ago :(. I did meet some really nice people in EU, and will always be happy for that. I remember Entropia for what it always was, a great and unique game. Now its time to move on to other things in life. Sorry for the long post. All the best. /Mike
Hi Konrad. I made another video with other songs from the early soundtrack, if you want to check it out: ruclips.net/video/9qNAuFQwJq0/видео.html Would you ever consider going back playing, just for fun?
The most beautifull game soundtrack, so far... traveling with his music was like being transported to the same Calypso ... User: El8El8 im alive too... It's hard to get back to fondling something left behind .. beautifull memories.
I play Guild Wars 2 now too. Username konrad.knox I occasionally log in to EU. Still the same username as ever: konrad maniac knox. Your faithful priest of Lootius.
I feel such sadness listening to this soundtrack. I miss Hadesheim, Port Atlantis and Jason where we met with friends so much.
In other words, you miss being young. As do I. Entropia is shit now.
The blasphemers who defy the truth of Lootius have turned to corporate profits only and have forsaken their flock. The faithful shall always lament the great land which we lost.

I'll never sell it, it's what got me started off, it's what helped get me to stick around to get all those skills and memories, they'll have to shut everything down, liquidate their assets, and delete my account to get rid of it.
I'll never give that up.
Stories like this is why I posted that video. Once upon a time I was a gun priest slinging a FireForge ARR 8000 killing robots and atroxes. But what started it all is my set of block priest clothes and a Jester D-1. That weak pink little gun. I started out in Anima Mundi as a russian to english translator.
@@konradknox That's really cool, the Jester was a workhouse for starting off! I remember it really locked me in when the guy that invited me to the soc gave me the Mann, I thought it was awesome that someone was cool with passing along it, along with some ammo of course, to some random person, this digital item that was actually worth money. Never have I been more careful with my shots, more specific with my choices in any mmo, simply because I didn't want to disrespect the courtesy the person did for me. Everything was like that, gifts had impact, real cash economy wasn't just a gimmick.
When I was new and still full of explorative spirit, I remember finding Deathifier's mansion in, what I believe was Treasure Island. It was open to the public so I'd walk in, look at just the raw accomplishment, everything was inspiring down the marble tables. Maybe it was a little creepy to make it a visit, but it was just so cool to see these digital works that held actual value, or the Roman Ram Purifier Prototype sitting on a pedestal by itself in an exalted manner.
It was stuff like that, and the friends I made, the clients I took on, the little odd jobs, that made it all worth it and got me to where I got. It's sad to see it all decline, I guess all good things have to end but, I honestly don't know if there will ever be anything like it again. Project Entropia wasn't perfect, but I loved it warts and all because it was such a unique experience, it truly felt like you were a colonist in this alien world, making your way on a strange frontier one day at a time.
The times that have gone by and will never return, but in our screenshots and memories. They die with us.
I love listening to the beta music again, that feeling of vertigo during my explorations sessions. I'm Beerk Bax Axon and I salute you.
I'm Konrad maniac Knox, and I salute you back, my friend. To the end of days. To our youth. A trip back to a time long gone.
I wish I still had my old screenshots from 2004/5.
Holy Cow. Listen to this music makes me feel exactlly like the first days I played this game. The feeling of getting my hands on my first no TT rifle a FF4400. Hunting armax north of fort troy I think its called. oooooooooooh my...
***** My first rifle was the FF8000 ARR, and I never once deposited. Made 3000 PED just on luck and other people's kindness. The oil rig fights, the sweating jobs, being a runner for people, a Russian-English interpreter for societies working together, a bodyguard, an assassin... But of course I made my main living as a priest of Lootius! Taking donations for blessings of good luck! HAIL LOOTIUS!
That music... yeah... it was like virtual reality had my soul born again. Played it through the night, night after night. Met so many people through the game, whom I later got to meet in real life.
Thats so long time ago. I still feel back too ;D i was even 5 years old the first days of entropia It brings many memory back to my head. because i watched my mum every day since the 1st day of the whole Game. she logged in. for years. until that day she gave me permission to play it! that time. i remember. no starter mission. it was 100% from scratch ;) I loved The project entropia best. entropia universe isnt bad ether. The project entropia was just so Amazing. :D
@@themixedvideos5799 Keep it alive in your jeart
I remember a glitch where if you logged out while standing under certain objects, you'd log back in standing on top of them
also sweat farming and the oil rig
Thats how i took the screenshots on top of Fort Ithaca and Hadesheim
20 years and we are still standing. Who's alive?
Anybody else wish you could go back to this version of the game? the version now just doesnt feel like this one did
I feel like the old version is rooted in us being young. But yes, I wish it all the time. The loot was better, the community was big, the amount of competing games bidding for attention was not as large, and subsidiaries did not fracture the playerbase scattering it among different planets.
I miss this soooo much. Going to try to get back on tonight. It's been years...
This game connects all of us. Keep it in your hearts. Hold on to the memories of friends. Memories will be gone like tears in rain.
@Cody Rauh I wish this all the time. I still log in maybe once or twice a year to see if the feeling could ever return, but it's gone. This game was something so special in the early days. Years after its removal, I still miss hearing the avatar chatter and seeing the gesturing when someone was typing - it enhanced the social aspect. I also miss when the world had large, empty expanses that looked truly alien, it really did feel like exploring a strange planet. If they'd come out with a classic version with the old world, I'd stay forever.
I started to play a month Ago after 10+ years break and im enjoying it. The game Has changed in some ways but keps its core. The community is great and Im used to the graphics. I can afford to do more things now than back then, when I was Holding on to every single PED. Those were good times though.
@@MM-nd1zz I logged in yesterday and went to one of the robot attacks at Fort Medusa, we HoF'd on the Warlock Commander. I was happy to see that they implemented a loot share for mobs tagged by multiple people.
I used to play this back in 2003. I was young and didn't know half of what i did but this brings back memories! Awesome!
Soundtracks are pure gold
The times that have gone by and will never return, but in our screenshots and memories. They die with us.
Thanks for the share, I was considering going back into the game... but It seems like there might just be disappointment now. Me and a group of people used to hang out, splitting ammo and turning the market via the auction - one of the most memorable things was the soundtrack.
Absolutely. A memory of our souls wandering in the beautiful animated world of our childhood.
I used to play Konrad Knox, the priest in black featured in the pictures, the first priest of Lootius.
Oh the nostalgia. What great times we had! Regards and thx for the upload, J4ck the Hustler (THG and later BAHQc)
Man I would play the shit out of this game if the brought back the old version.
Back then..you wanted to find a new outpost or city..better start running..🏃♂️ ..
I remember running hours on end ..Dodging mobs😅
I really miss what this game used to be before it became "Entropia Universe."
That feeling you got when stepping into a brand new world just can't be replicated.
Descentia Yeah we all were college students back then. Did the best we could do with our time. The graphics were amazing for the standard of that time.
i started playing this game back in 2004 i loved it and still do.. in game name "guyver biomorph zoanoid" this sound track brings back the memorys of hunting with my friends daniel predator skelland and dif... got to say i loved the old syle rig... it was awesome
best MMO all time.
it sure used to be. Now i think Star Citizen is the way to go
Damn, my guy was called "PathSeeker"... I miss this old version... wish there was a way to play the vanilla version of Project Entropia...
i miss when you could be a ghost and you had to make your own way back to a revival station... oh how i miss the old game, even if i was only 7 when i first started playing this game.
Man this pulls some nostalgia strings.
@@Zolare I cannot get the samd feeling from Entropia anymore, but I do from Star Citizen
@@konradknox me neither. never tried Star Citizen tho, but it looks interesting
I loved this game... I played like 8 months straight between 2004 - 2005... I was fresh out of college and unemployed at the time... I don't think I could've done anything better with my time back then.... LOL
Listening this now, while playing! it give that feeling...
Oh wow! this brings me back!! How I loved the old armor designs! And Cornu Beach, Camp Phoenix, Jason Center and the lively TP @ PA!
yep. days long gone. blissful days of the past, where only memories can return us now. that is why i posted this. for our souls to come back a bit.
Camp Phoenix, the Sweat Capitol! lol
Cornu beach forever (with repedge axes)
Still here for the memory \o/
The year is 2024. Only a small few remain. Roaming the vast desolate lands that were once the center of the universe.
What do they persue still? Star Citizen is where it's all at nowadays. But yes, 2024. I turned 40. Entropia is where I spent my 20s.
@@konradknox they are ghosts of past glory
i have to comment again, i miss these days of PE. was so much more fun back then and the people i met back then were awesome!!!!
what happens to the game, happens to its community
That goes to say when the game is good, people are happy, when game gets rough, only the cold hearted workaholics or the gambler fanatics have any drive left to stay
Gordon Dragunov Shamuei is still here :)
Hail brother
I used to play back in the old days, well still do. Shame I don't have my original account tho..
Still here.
i started back in 2004 and this music brings back so much memories. running in pvp1 zone, calling upon faustian and zippo for help when i would be running from cK lol. so many memories of awesome people and amazing times. i miss this game when it was like this. i stopped playing back in 2009. i think its time for a return just to see how things are now days.
Glad to have you here! The game has changed for the bad.
@@konradknox thats what i heard. i was in the old clan calypso thunderstruck with zippo and faustian and that whole crazy group lol. but i think ill still check it out since zip is back ingame too.
Good ol' days of everybody camping Longus in the desert cause they gave globals like nothing else... Aggroing Araneatroxes and AOA from the moment they appeared on your radar... Rei's mining tower in the middle of the PvP zone west of Orthos... Mining the veins in zig-zag patterns and almost always profiting... Treasure hunts! :D
Now those are old days, like 2002 to early 2003! I remember camping those Longus out east of Twin Peaks, the thrill of running through PvP1 when it was full of claim rods (back when they took a while to expire), making PED by working as a runner back when aggro was stuck on the first person to piss off the mob. Mob kiting was both fun and an art form, I'll always miss the fun of the old days in PE.
Hehe ... Opalo hunting Argos at Twin :) - in a Pixie armor that I collected from Daikiba, Snable and Exaro drops ...
oh ... and the joy when a "vase" dropped from Berrycled :)
And sweat had value. I played for a long time for free until I got ambitious and skilled enough to depo and go to bigger mobs.
This game connectee us all. Keep it in your hearts where ever you go.
@@konradknox I still keep coming back here, listening and reading through the stories from our fellow old-timers. Old Entropia was something really special, I know I'll never forget those good old times.
Richard Frankenberry Adams from the NBK fondly remembers his Opalo +A103 hunts, it was a better time!
Still alive, Richard. We are still alive.
Wow what a blast from the past.
Yes and the sweating in Camp Phoenix. They should add this tracks again lol
hell yeah
Mark up on items is rising dramatically during this lockdown, loads more people playing. Starting to see 150%+mu on items again, it's a very good time to start again!
we could use a new lockdown
this music is so much better then what is playing ingame now days. i would definitely prefer this music.
I agree 100%
Ah so nostalgic. I really liked the old Entropia better. Man, I wish I could go back in time to sweat for hours again, just to buy 20 rounds for my pistol to miss 19 shots.
Sweating was how I made my living.
8) kids nowadays will never understand the "grind" they preach today
PRAISE LORD LOOTIUS!
We all have sweat, just being in the Universe somewhere is the best :)
When project entropia was a real FPS, and when you could run faster than LOT of mob :)
Memories!! LOVE THIS GAME!! And love the music!
Collecting sweat for hours
Yeah. Nothing gave you that "I just stepped into a new world feeling" like this game.
@@GrimSheets Nothing will, not for our generation
When nostaliga just slams you in the face with her mace.....
That is what Anima Mundi is all about. Remember your spirit, remember the freedom and virtual worlds it would fly
Entropia is broken today
I mean, it cost to mutch to play these days
@@sirrocco9319 I am sorry to hear that
I played for free around the birth of entropia, that was hard! Nowadays they give you ammo, armour and plenty more things to find. To global is not the goal. The journey is what matters!
@@aleksmilenkovic1592 i mean i dont know, i always lived for hofs and globals and the game never gave me anything for free. It was rough but the loot was there on every mob. There were never empty mobs. Having nothing salvageable from a killed animal instantly broke my immersion. Suddenly the curtain of a living ecological world fell and the cold RNG casino revealed itself. When you take down an exarosaur and it doesnt even leave a hide.
@@aleksmilenkovic1592 the spirit of the journey changed. It used to be a journey from nothing to wealth, a difficult journey in the spirit opportunity. Now it is a journey from a hand holding entry drug starter kit to eventual bankruptcy, an easy, streamlined conveyer belt journey in the spirit of player money milking.
Mindbuster, Fragile, Svetlana, where are you at, my guys?
Omg I see Nea on those screenies!!! around 3.17
That is Nea alright. Nea and I were lovers
tnx man! good memories
Don't let go of them

The soundtracks are cool, but the song at the end is hilarious
When loot was good and everyone knew everyone. Was like a family. 😭
I remember.
In those days, the armor looked more brutal. But I only had pieces of pixie and shogan. Hadsheim bar had the most delicious beer in the universe
Beck 'The Tiger' Johnson says hi!
Hi!
holy fuck...well i downloaded it a while ago...but the memories.. haha
I´m crafting in Fort Fury. It is october 2018 now
I would pay anything just to play this again.
Played this 10 years ago. Never put in a dime, I just loved trading, talking to people. Is trading still viable in this game?
It's still viable yes :)

The times that have gone by and will never return, but in our screenshots and memories. They die with us.
wish they restore old hace c :/ must be logic if big crater we all kill robot and done so they should put old hade c back :P
Music... Hadesheim.. Minopolis... WHOAAAAA those times were fantastic...
DRM
I remember everything.
im remeber all too even when port atlantis got high house before yellow come PA was more hade c style house
good stuff
I miss the geberish talking when you were typing..😭
Where is that "Let there Be Light" track at? Why is that one song impossible to find??
I remember sweating...LOTS and LOTS of sweating! Fugabarbas, Atroxes, Sabakumas, Exarosaurs, whatever was sorry enough to pass.
Sweating Atroxes? You are a brave man. I hope you were sweating them while staying safely on the rocks.
@@konradknox Back in 2005 there was a bug that you could sweat a mob from up above. There was some transparent rig south of Hadesheim and you could sweat local Atroxes Young.
@@FrenchmanCZE Ah, good find. Didn't know about that one. My sweating grounds were usually Ithaca, Troy, Atlantis, Twin Peaks, Ares and Cape Corinth. Hadesheim was a place I visited to buy black slacks for 5 peds. Which I then sold for hundreds of peds and got rich.
Ha! I remember this game!!! And that Hadesheim... I did managed to find the fancy looking red sport car on the street... On absolutely empty street. Concrete jungle. Damn, it was so-o-o-o creepy. Scarier than anything I've seen in swamp camp.
XD
2021. Started playing after 10 years.
Turned off soundtrack in game. Turned on this.
You're only hurting yourself. The game changed hard
@@konradknox Konrad. I would also like to say that I do understand you and that you are in many aspects right. But I think what has changed a lot is not the game itself. It is still there. What has changed is our lives. We are older now. The years many years ago are gone, they are past. And we can never get them back. The things we did, people we spent time and played with, it is in the past. I have the same nostaglic feeling about other things in life too. "You can't step in the same river twice" someone said. We can only cherish and remember good things, often in a bittersweet way. But life moves on. And we create new memories and experiences.
@@MM-nd1zz You surely are absolutely right. I feel like the people changed too. Oldies used to help noobs, hire bards, playerbase was bigger. It feels more isolated now. Money is tight in the game and the gauntlet is brutal. Hunting feels like a cost now rather than a chance to score.
@@konradknox I have a great mentor who I found through reddit. The community, from what I've seen, is very helpful and mature, MA staff says hello at Discord etc.
Yes, loot has changed. Its easier to win back and cycle your PEDs/loose less. But you score and "hit big" less often. However, it still does happen. I scored a 63 ped global as a noob killing noob mobs Nusuls on Arkadia.
I also enjoy discovering the new planets. I never visited when they were released. Some of them werent even released when I played last time.
@@konradknox
Would like to reply to your comment.
So, I tried EU again now for about three months. Now I'm letting it go.
I am glad I gave it a chance and re-visited it, for good memories and nostalgia. But it also hurt me to see how much time has passed and how much they changed the game.
Loot is completely different - Which for me changed everything.
The player base is small. As you said, hunting now is a guaranteed cost, but the chance to score big is basically gone. Hunted for few months, mainly looted shrapnel and oils, basically no rare or valuable items whatsoever. The different monster leathers on Caly now drop so rare, that people stopped tailoring with Caly leathers. Same goes for mining. I cycled over 1.2K mining probes with zero globals - Zero. Only people with amps hit "big", and that is not big compared with what used to be Entropia. Some planets seem to be more or less empty. Many owned apartments are just standing there completely empty, or abandonded, their owners having left the game long ago :(. I did meet some really nice people in EU, and will always be happy for that. I remember Entropia for what it always was, a great and unique game. Now its time to move on to other things in life.
Sorry for the long post. All the best.

Hi Konrad.
I made another video with other songs from the early soundtrack, if you want to check it out:

Would you ever consider going back playing, just for fun?
I'm alive. I remember.
Fragile, Odinus, Folcan, Akmos, MasterOfBoulet, Shika, Nea, Mindbuster.
btw why do you consider the game shit now? :/
And me... D:
I was there Gordon Dragunov Shamuei :)
Forever remember. Our souls lived in the virtual world.
The most beautifull game soundtrack, so far... traveling with his music was like being transported to the same Calypso ... User: El8El8 im alive too... It's hard to get back to fondling something left behind .. beautifull memories.
Hold on to the memories. Keep them in your heart. This game connects our youths. It connects us.
