The excitement is building!

Look at all the people online in the forum! We are pumped and ready to go. Tomorrow is going to be so awesome.

Down to two classes DE Wizard or Human Warrior. Haven't nailed it down 100% but if the server opened in 5 minutes it would be warrior.

Looking forward to playing with you all!

Yeah was just saying on the Project 1999 FB group.. Tons of people flocking to GReen forums!

Can't wait to meet new peeps and start adventuring!

I am extremely excited to begin the next 3+ years of my life. :D

I got a notepad filled with things to remember.
Got a week off work and bought some fresh new socks :)

Green gonna be fun as hell muh dudes.

I'm gonna have a stick, and a chamber pot on my head and it'll be the most fun I've had playing EQ in years.

Ive waited 20 years to loot a guise.

And I just confirmed, I am making a big IRL move and will be like offline for the first two months of green LOL :(

Oh well, maybe chasing that dragon another 20 years is what keeps me logging in.

[drackgon]

Jibartik you wills till have time:) DM me when you get back and we will make it happen!

A rarely discussed aspect of the excitement? We know exactly what we're getting. This isn't some unknown like Pantheon, or a new WoW expansion. This is the theme park we loved as "children" but now get to re-experience through the eyes of "adults".

It also looks like a lot of people who never played EQ before are going to start on Green tomorrow. I've seen plenty of such posts on the forums and on Reddit.

I'm hyped!

@Server ops and developers: Thank you for bringing us Green!

i'm excited because i didn't play everquest until kunark and because i was in middleschool and was completely obsessed my grades slipped and my parents got rid of the internet, so i finally get my chance to live in the world at that time and do those things i wanted to 20 years ago with nothing closer but this

I always wanted to see how well I would do in EQ back in the day if I hadn't been a dumb 14 year old. Now's my chance to see if I could have hit 50 before Kunark.

Well, it IS a new P1999 though. A few of us--not a whole lot left, anymore--were here the first time 'around too in 2009. I enjoy watching the enthusiasm for Green on display from so many members--new and old--of the community. The P99 community was very small early on and it didn't have the good reputation it now enjoys so this sort of widespread discussion and anticipation was mostly lacking.

Everquest during the first 20 levels is absolute hell, I would be shocked if even 10% of people who had never played EQ before stick around past that.

Bad UI
Bad graphics
Unforgiving mechanics
Easy to get legitimately fucked (die deep in a dungeon) on corpse runs
Easy for hours and hours of time to go up in smoke (XP death)

All the reasons most of us here love to play are the same reasons the game is unplayable for most.
