Returning Player, Question about Atmosphere

[seannabeast]

Hey all,

I just downloaded and played EQ Live yesterday for the first time in years and am not a huge fan at all. It reminds me a lot of EQII and WoW in the sense of following a main quest line and such. However, when I went to enjoy some of my nostalgic leveling sites I was disappointed to not find a single soul around.

So my question is: How is the atmosphere in project 1999 server? Say I go to some of the low level leveling sites like my favorite Crushbone, am I going to find other people to potentially group with or will I find myself in a desolate area with no one but orcs to talk to?

Thanks,
