Project 1999 VS EQ Live

[Mitchell92]

Hello,
I know I'm probably making myself sound like a complete idiot right about now, but here it goes...

If anyone is able to give me an honest answer:

I do have an All Access subscription to play EQ2. I never got much into EQ1 (either on the Emu or EQ Live, although I've just gone around starting zones a bit...)

If I'm to get started all over again, what are the benefits of playing on Project 1999, and the benefits of playing on EQ Live? (Other than Project 1999 being free to play).

I'm curious what sets the two apart, and if I'm to return, which one is better off to start on if I've just explored the starting zones and nothing else. I already have my All Access subscription, so that isn't an issue.

I also want to take into consideration the amount of players online to group up with, guild with, and so on.

Right now I'm undecided which one to go on. I am sure many here are biased to playing on P1999, although I'd really appreciate some unbiased input.


Thanks again
