I think having such huge time sinks for everything in EQ and P99 makes it a lot more rewarding for you as a player when you reach the upper echelon. I remember the first toon I had on live and the giddy feeling I would get when I got an upgrade at higher levels. The same can be said on this server. I'm not rich or anything on this server so grouping in Sebilis and having an RBG drop in one of my groups for the first time got my adrenaline pumping just rolling on the item. More modern MMORPGs lack that quality of excitement. Sure I've had fun playing the WoWs and Age of Conans but my greatest accomplishments in those games couldn't stand up those from EQ Live or even here.
