Default daybreak does something better than p99

EQ is all about replayability. iam not talking about yearly relaunch (see below), but man, how old is blue already? are we trying to achieve some sort of longest running emu server world record?

Both had pros and cons.


P99s community tho... yeesh....

I enjoy the art of the old game. And storylines. That is about it. Wow is a way better actual "game" sport. Grind. Whatever.

EQ is horribly unfinished and broken. They cash grabbed pixel addicts in velious and rarely released a single interesting quest or npc dialog since pop.

Cool

I played on Aradune with a friend a few months shortly after its launch and we had fun. Triple attack for Rangers before Kunark was LOL.

PoP(LDoN) locked Agnarr sounds p cool if the population is alot higher than TAKP. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Eq-live isn't the same game as P1999 except in name. You might as well be comparing P99 to FF14 or Warcraft or Elder Scrolls.

LoL

But whores wouldnt exist forever if people always thought their spouses were super fun. I guess there will always be a place for both kinds of EQ too? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
