As a long time EQ fan I would love to see a few things happen with this game. My feelings about a "classic server" are mixed because I definately started losing interrest with the release of luclin, but I do not want to play a game that does not progress after Velious content. I would be very interrested (and perhaps this has been posted already, but i generally don't read 3 pages of posts on this site because there are so many pre-pubescent fanbois trolling every thread) in seeing a new dev team jump aboard the EQ train, and start an entirely different game post Velious. A sort of classic/rejuvinated EQ. Open with the origional, kunark, and velious; and after intervals of expansion release follow up with all new expansions. That being said, I highly doubt SOE will listen to any sort of voice of the mass EQ1 fanbase that lost interrest in post velious content.
I don't see why SOE would be motivated to do something like that. They've already spent millions of dollars over the the last 7+ years working on EQ since Velious came out. Why in the world would they scrap it all and start over, remaking the game from scratch after Velious? And who's to say it wouldn't just all end up right back where it is now?
They've already progressed the game from Velious in a direction that they wanted to go in. I can't see them throwing out all that work and making a whole new version of EverQuest at this point.
