I think they should make an EQ show. It would be a cartoonish show and would have humor,action and other things that other shows have. If you think this idea is good just tell me what you think so I can get enough people to make it.Thanks
I'm not sure how I'd feel about an Everquest cartoon, but I'm personally surprized that SOE is missing the cash cow that is novels. Look at what it's done for D&D. I mean, come on, they put out a novel for some crappy SW:G storyline, why not Everquest? The game has enough lore, why not?
Well I got a little input on this. First off, there was this show on G4, the name escapes me, but it was AWEFUl and it used footage from various MMORPGs, but primarily EQ. God was it bad.
Second, there's a .hack//sign animated show on now. They had the cgi/handdrawn series for a while, but they've moved onto a fully animated one. I believe it's on at 1:30 AM sat mornings (roughly 6.5 hours from when this is posted). That goes to show you that MMOs are NOT good things for animated series'. Yes, .hack isn't a TRUE MMO, but even still, I can already hear the oft repeated line, "OMFG111 UR SECKC A/S/L?"
I have to say that I disagree, the show on G4 (Portal) was hilarious. It was not meant to be taken seriously, it just showcased the games in a different format . Instead of being an editorial, it tried to present the content within a loose story line. Every new MMORPG that came out received airtime and a plot. On the topic there was a fake website going around that reportedly was a sneek peek into an Everquest cartoon done by the same animators as the Justice League cartoon. I admit I was fooled by this sight and was excited. McHammers cartoon did not cause him to flop, it was mediocre songs that pandered to a small portion of the market. His cartoon sure was bad though.
I think a show about Everquest would make it pretty child like, and very Pokemon; I don't think Sony would risk losing it's adult subscribers when they make so up so much of it's population.
Done in the correct way it wouldn't be very childish. Cartoons can be very well done, again I mention the Justice League toon, the VERY well done Teen Titans, add to these the stageringly popular anime series, and you have a show that could appeal to a vriety of age levels.
There is a show very simliar to everquest. It is called .hack and its anime
Instead of everquest the game is called 'The World' but has practically every element of the game eq. You can tell by watching the show that they got the concept and idea from eq.

Please, no. It's the end of the world when you get your own cartoon. Look at what happened to MC Hammer.
