Man, I can't help but put in my two cents on these threads.. I couldn't vote on your post because the reason why I don't play old school games isn't listed. The reason for me is none of them have new content and still exist in their original form. T…

Played the first one and loved it up to the point where I needed the big submarine. At that point I was annoyed with having to use the clunky thing and so terrified that I'd wreck it and die that I took a break and didn't end u…
I knew someone like what you said, they were ALWAYS online. I started working shift work so was on at all random hours and holy crap it didn't matter they were always on. I ended up asking them WTF, are you some creature that doesn't need sleep and …
Narop, I really don't think its going to make that much of a difference. Only an elite small percentage will likely bother to watch all these streams to learn all the secrets and strategies. Most people just want to play the game and enjoy the disco…
Yeah try EverQuest or P1999 which is a private server sanctioned by Daybreak games. I prefer P1999 over live. Current EverQuest just isn't the same game as it once was. Though if you feel entitled to play a present-gen MMO with what you describe kee…
Would be nice if they said something about how you partake in this. I went to article, I went to website, I went to Mogstation, account management, no mention of this. When I tried to log into the game. No mention of this. I'd try it for free but ev…

I was there during the transition of both EQ1>EQ2 and when Wow released.
To answer the question...NOTHING,it was easily the better version of Wow except with more bugs.Sorry but i am not playing a crappier game just because i…
First and foremost I'm an EQ2 fan, though I've played my fare share of WoW and other MMOs too. My favorite MMO of all time is EQ1 followed by EQ2 then Vanguard and Ultima Online.
I think alot of players who initially went to EQ2 were EQ1 players an…
I thought it was the best game I had ever played earlier in the game's development. I tried to get everyone I knew to give the game a try. I had to leave when they changed the tier system and added regeneration. Perma-death system with no regenerati…
Lets see, take itself more seriously, make the entire game a challenge. No challenge content = boring (to me anyways) so I don't enjoy anything the game has to offer other than heroic dungeons / raids. All that beautiful overworld content, questing …
Please make a pristine server... but its also important that the current end game on said pristine server resembles vanilla so even on live, as they release the expansions down the road they need to look at some of the other things that made classic…
Okay I have to say this is really really annoying that servers emulating expansions from the past are simply about nostalgia. This article says that this is nothing but nostalgia. Just because this is an emulation of an expansion from the past does …
I'd come back if they brought back the kind of difficulty found in vanilla or if it was even more difficult still. I'd like more socialization. Less click a button for instant teleport to raid. I enjoyed vanilla WoW, enjoyed burning crusade. Lich Ki…
What about P1999 - Its a private EverQuest 1 server - Velious era. Has about 1200 people online during the evenings during the week with 1500 online on the weekends. Solid population. More people than a lot of EQ servers had when it was in its hay d…
I can't believe so many people think that if you play as only 1 character its not a roleplaying game. There are so many RPGs that don't have customizeable characters. All the RPGs I grew up with didn't. Zelda, Final Fantasy games, Legacy of Kain, P…
Nostalgia doesn't hinder my enjoyment because I luckily my favorite experience was the original EverQuest and I discovered P1999 a few years ago and been enjoying it since.
I actually enjoy it even more than my first time. Probably because I was 1…
It is completely ludicrous that you'd suggest we are even getting real sandbox MMOs. They either fall into the quasi-sandbox genre but still have way too many themepark elements to really be a sandbox or they are just garbage. What is going on is we…
Its hard to find something quite like EverQuest 2. Very unique, fantastic game. I enjoyed my time playing it. If I were to say what I think most closely compared to EverQuest 2 if you want something new, it would be Final Fantasy XIV. I would rather…
I decided to give it a shot this afternoon and I haven't left the tutorial cave but I'm really enjoying it so far. Its odd and quirky but I love that about it. It really makes me laugh. You can tell they try very hard to make every part of the game …
