I remember the various sites for each class -- like the enchanter site, whose name I have forgotten -- people just were posting in the forums what they could figure out or guess at. And there was a lot of headscratching, but then a step would be figured out. And, some people kept discoveries secret, too. All I will tell you is, these quests were not "solved" in a couple days. Some were easy to solve, others were hard.

Different world, ya know? These days, so as not to frustrate teenagers, devs leak quest solutions, or just make then mindlessly easy. The people in marketing said this would be great for the industry, draw in more people, make it more "user friendly," etc. Yeah. Online games are a thriving business. No.

No game will ever be as difficult as eq again. No businessman would allow it. And no modern day kid would enjoy it. <shrug> idiocracy.
