Hey everyone,
Haven't played EverQuest since college. I had a friend who got in to the beta, and then handed over the CD to get me hooked.
It's just as classic and fun and addictive as it ever was. Probably more so. When I was in college I just wanted to do everything right away - and, given that EverQuest had just been released, there were no guides to tell you where to go, what to do, how to level and improve your skills, and so forth. I burned out and quit just before Kunark.
Looking forward to hanging out and playing. Might try a few different classes, although my wood elf bard (Calthaer) is going to be my go-to. Now that I have...you know...a job, and so forth, I kind of wish there were a way of scheduling a group by level range and date. Like...I know I'm going to have 3-4 hours to play on this or that evening; can we meet in so-and-so zone around this time and group up, bind at a nearby city, arrange all that. Does anyone do that here?
So far pick-up groups aren't too bad but, if this is anything like I remember, that gets harder to do as you get up in levels. People also level at different rates, so just keeping one guild or group of friends doesn't seem to do the trick, either.
