Pro-Tip: go to a good restaurant and look for roasted or Charred Brussel Sprouts. It makes it wayyyy better. And I think Brussel Sprouts are the evil.

I am so good, I backstabbed your face!
Connected?I don't think so,i am pretty sure they do not have separate teams,they have a team that moves from game to game.H1Z1 has dropped off so badly the league got cancelled so i would say they are just moving from EQ1>Eq2>Eq1,this ship is almost empty and sunk.
I am still not sure if Smedley's vision of mobile gaming was the truth behind the sale,i mean he made that excuse but he was in charge,he could have done mobile at SOE.So it tells me they had not enough cash flow,losing money and needed to sell which is also why Landmark and then H1Z1 was whipped out of nowhere so quickly to try and generate some cash flow.
IMO Smed and SOE got incredibly lucky,H1Z1 did way better than anyone could imagine and likely aided in the sale to DBG.I still however do not think DBG bought in for gaming,they simply figured ,ok we can't lose too much,maybe make a bit and get a business in the USA.
Never forget 3 mile Island and never trust a government official or company spokesman.
For those looking for an oldschool style MMO (but isn't too old), EQ2 is really good and one of the best ones and its a good time to start with the burning lands expansion released for it. There is a lot to do outside of raids/quests...collections, best housing system of any MMO what so ever as far as themepark MMOs go and its a great MMO.
I might pick up burning lands next month and come back to EQ2 to play it. Looks like it adds a ton of content for it.

Try a MUD today at http://www.mudconnect.com/Honestly I'm happy for those who are still going strong in game. For me personally, if they aren't planning another EQ, update it to a high definition version with updated sounds, effects, UI, graphics, etc. I love the idea and "style" of EQ but the environment of the game is just not good enough.
