Default Why are you here?

I've noticed that a lot of people seem to be here for nostalgia purposes. When they first came in and everything was so new and whatnot.

Personally, I'm playing on this server because I seriously think that EQ was a lot better during the trilogy days, not just in terms of community, but in terms of gameplay and difficulty level.

I also have a couple of friends coming on this server that are here to try EQ out and see if they like it... and also to play with me.

So I'm wondering: Why are you playing on this server?

Since this was a checkbox poll, I voted for everything.


But seriously, because this game was much more fun back in the day and it's fun to get to re-experience it and actually do some of the stuff I didn't originally do.

Also it's significantly less expensive than EQLive

Every game I played since I left EQ after PoP, I've compared them to it. None have stood up to EQ for me in terms o fun factor.

This. Its societies thing these days to compare everything to something better, and EQ was always better, and nothing measures up really.

EQ classic, Kunark, and Velious felt EPIC, nothing else has had that feel. I agree with the above quote.

The immersion. No other game has even TOUCHED EQ in immersion for me.

A big part of why I quit live was because of the trivialization of death penalty. Died at the juggs camp in OS? No problem - Head to the guild lobby, summon corpse and get a cleric that is sitting there anyway to rez you.

Die at juggs / OS in classic? Now you have a real issue... Makes you play differently. It could be argued that in Live you just treat it like classic if you want that - But human nature dictates that I need to be forced to do that. Classic imposes this.
