I like it hard

[Kagasumi]

So I played EQ many years ago, then played WoW or many years.
I then tried the free to play EQ for a little bit, but it didn't seem quite the same.

However this Project 1999 is just what I am looking for, for that old difficult EQ gameplay. Yes, it can be tough, but man it is rewarding to do even the smallest things.

So I have to struggle to find my class vendors, but memory helps and I do. Then the first level is tough. I'm just struggling to get enough money to buy a spell. I die a couple of times to roaming skeletons. But I hang in there to level 4, now with about 60 gold and every slot has a backpack. I'm on my way after the first day.

This is what I mean, about having to pay attention to your surroundings. You have to be careful, clever, and even looting some lowbie tunic is like a huge treasure. There's no hand holding, and very little forgiveness, but this is how I remember it. It is a great experience to play with the old rules. I won't bash the newer games, they are ok for what they are. But no other MMO was like old EQ. It makes a man out of you.[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
