[Deadmantis]

Back in 1999 I was single sharing a house with my brother. Had all the free time in the world to play and my friends were in similar situations. Online gaming with real life friends was part of the fun. Making new friends in a new world was even better.

Fast forward to 2015, married with kids, friends in similar situations. I can't get any of them to even give this a look. "Been there, done that" is the consensus. While I still log in and play, I don't have time to camp shit for 16 hours on end. An hour here and there is just enough to remind me of how cool this game was/still is.

Youtube and twitch are bringing back old heads everyday. I also see quite a few "new to EQ" threads on the forums.

I wouldn't worry too much about why more people aren't playing. Winter is coming...
