How old do you think you'll be before you stop playing Everquest?

[Angushjalmur]

I'm assuming the average player age is right around 30, which is -for most people- nearing the end of their physical prime. This of course is assuming you partake in frequent physical activity and haven't become a pale blob behind a computer screen. At what point do you put down the tarnished broad sword and settle down to have a family?


Bonus questions: Do you want a family? Do you think you're capable of finding a mate? And do you think it's possible to raise a family AND play Everquest?

Stopped at 29. Will never play again as EQ requires time to succeed. Just doesn't mix with me.

OP is greatly overestimating the shelf life of a nostalgia server.

A lot of people don't realize they are seeing this game through rose-tinted glasses. I had fun playing here because nostalgia, not because I think EQ is an objectively good game. When the nostalgia wore off, I quit.

I was sitting in the weight room at my highschool waiting for the morning announcements to finish (the weight room had a TV in it, and gym was my first period that year).

The two students on the TV suddenly went straight faced and told everyone to turn to the news. We flipped over about a minute before the second tower got hit, and everyone just stared in silence. A jewish girl in the class became hysterical immediately and was screaming and crying, idk if she knew someone who worked there or what.

After about an hour of watching the news, an announcement came over the intercom. "In light of what has happened this morning, we're allowing anyone who needs to to go home for the rest of the day." It was at that exact moment I became traumatized, made my teacher aware, and walked out of class.

I walked home in stead of waiting for the city to organize busses on such short notice, and got a group in Sol B with my shit geared DEF SK

I'll probably stop when Rogean and company decide to shut down the server.

I might stop or play less if they ever decide to wipe the server clean and start over.

I'm in the opposite boat. I would undoubtedly start again once they shut down and pass the code to someone else.

I brought the woke. I saved the thread. And I fired the upboats on account of the thread starter provoking me into a moment of wokeness to share with the ingrates here.
