I hope they do away with the stupid zoning like we have, and move to how WoW does it. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Pay to win games will always suck. Why do you think so many people are pissed about RMT on our server?

That EQnext will be F2P is the only reason I will consider trying it. Its also the primary reason I think it will fail to live up to my expectations. Do you guys think it will launch with experience potions or will we have to wait?

No xp potions to start. I suspect the cash store will have mostly ornaments to begin with.

Usually Free-to-play becomes pay-to-win and I am not a fan of that. IMO it may be impossible to marry Old world MMOs with new era. Sony won't profit as much from Niche gaming anyways

Who cares about SOE? the original EQ team wasn't SOE, it was Verant and I believe none of the original Verant guys are left at SOE.
so i guess you dont count Brad McQuaid and Jeff Butler as "original EQ Team"

/facepalm

Ya, McQuaid is back but not working on EQ Next unfortunately. Jeff Butler who worked on EQ during the classic era and later started Sigil (Vanguard) is the creative director at SOE over EQ Next.

Thats actually the best thing I've heard in the last few months about EQ Next. That and Brad McQuaid saying that EQ and Vanguard fans specifically will enjoy EQN and basically implied that its sort of the game they intended VG:SOH to be.

"Saw a preview of the EQNext intro yesterday. I think EQ and VG players are going to love it!"

"It has features that Jeff & I wanted to put in EQ & VG (& a bunch of other great ideas) but the tech wasn't there yet. Well, it's there now!"

Destin, this is going to be free to play. So even if its bad, we can still have our lvl 5 troll SKs with rusty 2hs murdering in Nektulos or wherever. Pras.

This is simply not true in Western games.

Obviously he's not going to say "I SAW IT AND THAT SHIT IS NOT CLASSIC".
