Any indie MMOs similar to EQ?
I played one of those free MMOs once, like one of those annoying ones that you see ads for that pop-up everywhere. It had hideous anime graphics, but it was very similar to WoW and the gameplay wasn't *that* bad.
What I'm curious is if there's any indie MMOs that are similar to classic EQ. By that I mean: challenging, death penalties, extremely rare spawns, no instanced crap, and a long time to get to the top. That would be pretty rad and I'd play it. Any thoughts? I'm guessing probably "no" as only masochistic EQ gamers like us enjoy this type of stuff. | ||

wasn't lineage super brutal?
not exactly indie by any means, but probably as brutal if not more brutal than classic EQ

I read that Wurm Online is really hard -- I tried to play it but it just chunked horribly, Huzzah for a game designed with java.

Never played it, but wasn't Ultima Online around about the same time? not all that indie, but maybe it was similar enough.

UO is far more sandbox-ish There are certainly some sweet pimpin' emu servers for it the second age comes to mind

Lineage 2 was super brutal. Had extensive/complex quests and crafting.
Vanguard was pretty similar to EQ. Maybe a balanced mix of EQ1 and 2. I believe its free to play now? | ||
