    fcking asshats... well relaunch Vanguard at least!
    So they can lose even more money?  Yep, great idea.

    Definitely not shocked.  That long span of radio silence on the game was the dead giveaway.

    Just about every mmorpg made flopped, its gotten to that point of saturation, weve past peak mmorpgs.


    Hopefully this leads to a rebirth of cheaper, but mechanically fun and unique mmorpgs.  Big money is gone and enjoying its stay in moba land.  The days of big budget mmorpgs is over sadly.

    Maybe in the west.  The east is still making mmos.  A lot of them are very enjoyable as well.

    On paper this game sounded nice, once I saw the pseudo Disney cartoon cast they called player characters I completely lost interest.

    I'm surprised this thread is still going, but it's good timing. I just heard of this new MMO in development that has a lot of the same ideas as EQN and some other stuff. They also are making really good progress in development and are clearly talented developers, so these guys can definitely do it if they can get enough money. They're only raising money on their website right now, no Kickstarter or anything and they've already been in development for 7 months. I haven't given them any money yet but you can play their current testing build if you do. Definitely looks promising. I recommend you guys check this one out:

    The EQ franchise is dead and almost gone. Next they will shut EQ1 and 2 down.

    #1 - He didn't, Grummus did.
    #2 - He didn't, he asked you not to be mad at Grummus for his necro.

    This site needs to auto-lock posts older than 1 year. 

    Would eliminate this necro bullshit

    Better yet just lock forums for dead games period
    That would lock 90% of the game forums according to you  :*

    To be fair more then half the games on that list I have never heard of and don't know what they are.
    A fair number of them either haven't launched yet, or were shut down some time ago. I think you are doing well if you know what even 10% of them are. :p

    I always thought EQN was a carrot to get people to pay for Landmark.

    Lock such threads, but old players should be allowed to do new threads if they so wish, not like many will after all.
