I've always thought this exact thing whenever an evil awakens after "10,000 years" or something.

They were literally sealed away by Cavemen; by humanity when it was in the neolithic, I'm not sure they'll do much better now that it's the modern era and there's computers, nuclear armaments, and 7-11's.

......Unless it's a ferngully kind of situation and the lack of industrialization was impeding their power and the modern age has and will in fact make them exceedingly powerful than we could ever possibly imagine.

There's an old isekai manga about a school girl who's the ancient evil of the fantasy world she's spirited away to. The brooding beau who's protecting her from various assailants is the destined hero who's supposed to kill her.

She and the readers only find out about that very late into the series because she doesn't speak - or even understand - the langauge spoken by the natives for an equally long time.

>After being awakened, the ancient evil demands something that hasn't existed for centuries, then kinda wanders off while rambling on about the time he caught the ferry to Shelbyville. He needed a new heel for his shoe. So he decided to go to Morganville, which is what they called Shelbyville in those days. So he tied an onion to his belt, which was the style at the time. Now, to take the ferry cost a copper, and in those days, coppers had pictures of bumblebees on 'em. "Gimme five bees for a bronze drahkma," you'd say. Now where were we... oh yeah. The important thing was that he had an onion on his belt, which was the style at the time. He didn't have any white onions, because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones... .

I just started the trial of that. It seems alright, but I'm still in Kingsmouth.

>>52427051
Good Lord, anon, give your dick a rest

>>52439293
>Still
Kingsmouth is filled to the brim with lore, details and cool shit, enjoy it while you're there. Afterwards, you're going to Egypt..which is...ehhh..but stick with it, Transylvania is fucking aces

How many investigation quests have you finished without looking up anything?

>>52439553
1, which I assumed was bugged until I realized it wasn't, it just kept spawning enemies (it's where the skater guy wants to to shut down a monster attractor). I'm doing a shotgun/sword build because I figure I'd use something like that in this world if it was really me.

>>52439572
Don't worry, I only finished like one investigation quest without help.

Also I did an axe/rifle build myself, cause bashing in horroifying monsters with axes and hammers is fuckin' cool.

>>52439008
I knew what was under that spoiler before I even opened it.

>>52416065

"your suffering was necessary, every thing youve been through has been in some way a test. I have guided you all, shaped you into the men and women you are so you may be strong enough to face me. Ancient enchantments,powerful and unbreakable, protect my life. Iam evil and iam tired, that sceptre there can nullify my layers of protection and in a way work around them. I cannot touch it, but you can, use it to put me to sleep forever. You have done well, my children, continue to do well, walk the path i did not choose. Make me proud."

No spectacular final fight to save the world, just a sad man who wants to sleep.

>>52439590

As it stands I don't know if I'll pay for it. It seems alright but I'm told the battle system has been revamped to be much better and quite frankly, I still prefer to play WoW for combat.

>>52439623
Understandable, but honestly Secret World isn't about combat. It's about the atmosphere and the in depth universe. No other MMO has had such detail before, in my opinion, to the point that the manholes throughout Innsmouth are unique pieces of environment because they are crucial parts of a major quest. The investigation quests are basically National Treasure in MMO form, and it's fucking crazy and super fun. Also the universe is filled with so much cool shit, like a burnt out hotel that has a door to Hell in it, and is surrounded by demons, and this is in the starting area of the fucking game.

>The ancient evil awakes and unleashes the first of its many plagues upon the land.

>Nothing happens.

>Modern science has led to the widespread use of Vaccines, rendering most plagues harmless.

>Ancient Evil broods for a while, then forms a fanatical cult of Anti-Vaxxers to try to get people to stop making themselves immune to his plagues.

>>52439690

Yeah but they expect you to go through the combat to get to it.

>>52439293
>>52439623
>>52439744
Don't pay for it. Funcom announced just today that they're wiping character data and relaunching after they retool the combat and progression systems, so now is quite possibly the best time to be a trial player with no real stake in the game.

>>52439790
>>52439744
Also, upon re-launch it'll be F2P, so no use paying for it now.

>>52439790

Wait, they didn't retool the combat yet still?

>>52439844
They've done a bunch of balance changes to make the early-game more accommodating to players, with less risk of getting steamrolled by dozens of Ak'ab the second you poke your head into SC.

They also made the tutorial suck less and explain how the combat system works.

What they're trying to do is rework the entire combat system from the bottom up to make it more fun to play in general.

>>52439891

Oh ok.

>>52439790
>Everyone starting with a clean slate
I already have the game
Maybe this is a good chance to get back into it...

>>52439891
>What they're trying to do is rework the entire combat system from the bottom up to make it more fun to play in general.
I could certainly use that because as it stands the shotgun just doesn't feel fun. I mean how do you fuck up a shotgun?

Reading the descriptions of it that sounds like a couple of shoujos that I remember. One was called Vampire Game, about a princess who has a cat that is actually the ancient evil Vampire King that recently reincarnated himself to regain power and I didn't read the whole thing but you didn't have to to know where that was going...

The other one was called The Demon Ororon. It's about the devil falling in love with hiki girl with dead parents.

Ancient Evil awakens.
Turns out the Ancient Evil is actually a spirit that fought the real Ancient Evil a thousand years ago and lost. The real Ancient Evil has been impersonating human rulers in a neighboring kingdom, ruling in disguise and sowing chaos and manipulating events for several apparent generations.

>be ancient evil, reside in the Cthulhu dimension with many other unspeakable horrors
>one day weird monkeys have appeared on your homeworld
>these monkey-like creatures live in caves, they hunt and gather and use tools like other monkeys
>but what makes them fascinating to you is that they do not merely use their abilities to survive
>they know instinctively that life has no meaning, and yet they try to find it
>they know themselves in their suffering, and yet they do not abandon their desire to live

>the monkeys have developed technology that has eliminated death and suffering
>more than that, they have even managed to make themselves forget the sadness and cruelty of the past, and entrusted everything to an all-powerful thinking machine

>yes. This is wrong.
>you have come to a resolution
>and then you wait
