Ready to play, but how?

Hello all! Very excited at the chance to play the real EQ again. Games like WoW and EQ2 were always so fast paced I never got the enjoyment out of them that I did from the original EQ. So I'm ready to go!

However, is the only way to play P1999 to spend $200 on Titanium? I'm not asking for anyone to tell me how to get it illegally, seriously, I'm just not able to afford $200, (I just bought a new gaming laptop) - is buying an expensive hard copy the only way to go about this?

EQ titanium is no longer distributed by the publisher. the only versions you can get are illegally downloaded (filled with viruses) or lucked out at a secondhand game store. if you know someone who has a version, you could get it from them.

That is not true, please do not spread misinformation. The highest seeded version on the most popular torrent site has no viruses - confirmed by myself and many others.

i admit i havent downloaded titanium in over 5 years, but i do remember there being a seeded version that had viruses in it. so if its safe then great, but you are still taking a risk.

No less risk than installing the files from this very site, which you will need to do to play the game regardless.

Not illegal if you bought EQ in the past which i'm sure 99% of us did.

I did indeed have an old account I MIGHT be able to surface. However, I thought I read in the instructions not to patch, so I wasn't sure if I downloaded EQ Titanium strictly online if I would be okay to play P1999 after the download completed.
