RIP Brad McQuaid from EQ PvP community

[Larken]

We're a special bunch of people here in the rather small EQ PvP community.
Nonetheless, thank you Brad for your gaming genius.

Salute to you!

RIP brad, no new mmos will ever be as good as the mess you created called everquest, the amount of unpolish and harshness is what makes everquest unique and awesome.

Sadly now pantheon will most likely become like the rest of the mmos, our last hope is Rogean for a red 2.0 but i think Lite griefed him off the server

Damn 51! Makes you want to get checked yearly, not play games all day and become a vegan while working out under the sun.

Really enjoyed the thousands of hours I put into this game. Rip sir!

Brad turned me into that monster and I will never be able to thank him enough. We will be hosting a 3v3 PVP tournament in his name this weekend where all participants will be hooked up with lvl 50/BIS

More to come. Everyone is welcome. Build your teams

Was the cause of death ever released. Just glanced over two articles and saw nothing. I'm guessing heart attack?

EverQuest PvP, at least in my humble opinion, is so fun and unique because of how unpredictable it is. The constant threat that at any moment while you're busy farming an item or a camp for EXP that some badass can show up while you're nearly OOM and finishing your kill and start raining nukes upon you. It keeps you constantly spamming /who, scrolling out and looking around, etc. Being on edge the second you see some unknown name enter the zone. Who is he? What level is he? Is he friend or foe?

This is what made the launch so exciting [despite the 10000 fuck ups], and kept me playing.

What is not particularly exciting is scheduled tournaments, and arena EQ. This is not a great PvP game for that format. These garageboxes that try to make EQ into counterstrike: kaladim edition are missing the whole point of what makes EQ PvP great to begin with.

My 2 shekels.
