.... you’re going to wonder why everyone else at the convention is walking around in a daze with a slack-jawed look on their face for the next few days. Yes, the shock really will be that great. While we can’t say anything about what we saw, I will clearly state here that I predict EverQuest Next will be as much of a game changer as the original EverQuest was. Feel free to quote me on that any time.
This, on top of MMORPg's "head and shoulders above" and "pants pooping" and TTH's "hands down the best game" pretty much has me bewildered.
What can this beast be? Discuss.

I think we are going to laugh. I know I will be.
Some will be crying as well.

Kyleran: "Now there's the real trick, learning to accept and enjoy a game for what it offers rather than pass on what might be a great playing experience because it lacks a few features you prefer."
John Henry Newman: "A man would do nothing if he waited until he could do it so well that no one could find fault."
FreddyNoNose: "A good game needs no defense; a bad game has no defense." "Easily digested content is just as easily forgotten."
LacedOpium: "So the question that begs to be asked is, if you are not interested in the game mechanics that define the MMORPG genre, then why are you playing an MMORPG?"
Well, with the overselling it that these couple sites are doing, they better hope it shocks and amazes, or they lose a lot of credibility from their journalists(whether they had any to start with is debatable for individuals).
I would like to believe that sites that depend upon their reader-base would not be so dumb as to promise people a turkey dinner and then give them a can of sardines.
Hopefully tears of joy hehe
Id hate to see people seriously upset over this.
That's basically staking their reputation on this. Amazing.
I think I've figured out the mystery, dandurin. And, it also explains why we've seen no video leaks, etc.
(drum roll)
The game world is entirely VR(Virtual Reality). You don't just play this game, you live it!
I saw that. I thought of posting it here, but honestly the responses are going to be predictable.
One person will say that it's exciting.
Another well say wait and see, we don't know yet.
Another will say Ten Ton Hammer is bought by SOE.
Another will say Ten Ton Hammer is a legitimate source and will take a serious cred hit if wrong.
Then the rest of thread will be variations of this, including MMO experience and EQ history lessons.
We have one day left.

All spelling and typographical errors are based soely on the fact that i just dont care. If you must point out my lack of atention to detail, please do it with a smile.
What they said (that is worth anything at least) is that it will be rather different from the earlier 2 EQ games.
That is actually pretty interesting, while a large percentage of all new ideas are less than great the genre really need some new perspective and fresh ideas. Can SOE actually deliver that without having an unplayable game they might be on the right path.
I will not be hyped up until I know more of course but I will follow the information we get this weekend with interest.
Come on! this is the best time to get hyped. when you don't have the facts you can just make stuff up. Like I am excited because this is a sci-fi/fantasy blend where elves come from space, and dwarf type things are made from genetic engineered tree roots.
sure, there is hopefully no basis in what I just said, but I can still be hyped about it because the chance is still there

Don't let logic bring you down and go for it.
"The person who experiences greatness must have a feeling for the myth he is in."
I couldn't have said it better myself.
Chances of this living up to the hype, almost 0%.
It's annoying games companies think we are completely brain dead.
I think TTH has already shown how interested it is in the game by creating http://www.eqhammer.com/main shortly after seeing the EQN footage at E3.
If its a themepark mmorpg I won't cry but it will be like being in a bad (hoping it gets better) relationship for years and know its over and time to end that relationship.. It will be more of a fresh relief after its over..

I don't usually take joy about people getting upset but with so many hype and so little information everyone and his grandmother is making their own EQN inside their heads, loads of people are going to be upset, it's unavoidable right now.
I know the secret:
EQ Next will be the world's first MMO entirely made out of cookies
That's some really outrageous hyperbole there, anyone has any clue what this incredible innovation is going to be?
I doubt they'd be saying these things if it was just a PS4 release, which is expected anyway.
I heard some stuff about VR, how much of that is baloney?

...and without loot ... hmm it sounds epic.
You fall on the floor from a sky naked and you start looking for a cookies.
Good to know you're going into it with an open mind at least........
