I am running through Icewind Dale and Ice Wind Dale II to pass the time.

I just hope that EQNext will be something worth waiting for.

If it ever happens. I mean if EQ Next is EQ1 re-released with updated graphics, I'm in. Honestly that's the only thing EQ lacks imo. It's a boxers dream game. Slow enough gameplay to box, and be completely effective, but fast enough that you don't fall asleep at the computer.

Just start EQ Next at Kunark or Velious and there will be so much content to see and do it'll be absolutely amazing. Prolly just start with Kunark and add Velious for another 30 bucks down the road, but that's fine with me, as long as the gameplay is the same.

Keep the original armor stylings, where your suit made a difference, where you could tell where pieces came from instead of making everything so cookie cutter. I love the Old Troll with the BP from PoGrowth that looked like a gigantic bat on it's chest. Amazing look!

Sorry I'm dreaming, but I hope something comes along soon.

DCUO has been pretty fun so far, but to the best I can tell right now it has a limited ceiling, but I'm enjoying the combat system and the change of pace.

This is a terrible idea.

Vangaurd was a fabulous game that just had extremly shitty luck.
When Microsoft pulled thier funding, they had to release it way too early which led to not enough content in the end.

The game itself upon release was on par with EQ1 up until you hit about level 45. At that point, there was roughly 1 zone you could xp in "Rhaz Inkur" which pretty much required a monk as a puller. Granted, it wasn't so shattering that would cause you to quit. My guild (Blades of Wrath) was very hardcore, so the majority got to level 50 within 2-3 months. At this point there was 2 raid mobs in game that were thought to be unbeatable. But we beat them.

At this point, we were demanding more raid content, and they could just not supply it so many members quit the game. 6 months later they release "Ancient Port Warehouse" which was awesome, but we were so good that we conquered all the content within a month or two.

While I must say the raid encounters were a blast, the fact that it took them so long to design it and took us such short time to beat it left little hope for the end game. The majority of us quit and went to play AoC, in which the same exact thing happened.

PS; I played a Disciple, the best class in the history of MMO's! =P

VG Looked extremely fun, I tried it mid last year.. unfortunately the client still felt unpolished and there was a total of about 200 people on at peak on the most populated server.. i never got to really play it. i really wish the launch was better, oh well.

Launch was actually really good!!!! It was 4-6 months later when people were looking for raid-endgame content that wasn't there that led everyone to quitting.
