In other words, you are saying.. EQ was originally birthed as like a little boy, but later decided it was going to become a g.i.r.l?
This is starting to explain some of the demography of certain players on eq/p99, and why such players are so connected to eq.

But this is unlikely, was never so mutilated, as Smedly has always been a co-op player, has developed no pure pvp games in his career so far (speaking from his concept work, planetside not attributed). His concept of EQ came from your run of the mill PnP-DnD game that he is a self professed fanatic of pre-dev career. I've read most of Smedly's published dev papers, this sounds more like something a nobody cooked up on a reddit page. Source? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
