The already well-established brand recognition and captivated customer base made their plan a sound one. If DBG had ignored them, it would have been fucking genius from a work/reward perspective
The risk of creating something from the ground up, even if it's good, is that people just might ignore it because Steam or their favorite social media personality doesn't put it in front of them. As a result, you don't get that critical mass to make something financially successful as we've seen with every other MMO that isn't WoW basically and that's legit studios with publisher and PR firms and all kinds of backing throwing millions of dollars around. they 100% made more grifting the small EQ community in this endavour than if they set out to make something as a 2 man team and threw it up on Steam | ||

THey updated the game more than I ever saw p99 get updates, every week amazing updates. They were about to drop GOD and Dungeon finder, which was going to be another incredible experience. Nobody was "grifted" except losers that didn't even donate to the server.

Once a week during the entire life of the server they did live Q&As with the community, and implemented updates regularly from them.
I fuckn hate you people, I hope the EMU community is completely shut down.

p99, sure it's not suppose to get updates anymore, Shards of Dalaya was a completely different game also though with unironically like 100x more work put into it over the decade+ it was popular, and other servers like EZ
none of them took a giant shit on the floor or had a community compromised of complete fucking brainrot idiots shouting with a megaphone all over the internet gaining the attention of the eye of sarun, though. the lame is coming from inside the house. | ||

Yeah, the best way to scam gamers for money is Everquest. "look at how P99 isn't allowed to collect donations, lets work really really really hard... harder than you ever worked on anything you ever worked on in your life, EKCO... to grift people with it" Thats where all the huge audiences are.

the tri class system is new and super cool don't get me wrong, but the rest literally isn't that impressive, there's no lack of passion projects over the years with autists tinkering with the databases, SoD alone had like thousands of custom hand written quests, thens of thousands of NPCs and Items over a decade that all kicked the shit out of EQ Lore shit i saw in the like week i played THJ could be done in a weekend with a case redbull. like lol, lmao even. | |||
