How did you first hear or get started on everquest?

[alphys]

I found Everquest by accident. We just got highspeed internet, and Comcasts splash login page had " There is a LOT of realestate in Asheron's Call! " and a link to the beta.

Played that until it ended with amazing GM interaction, then was entirely focused on getting that game. Got all my 13 year old cash together and went to hastings... only.. It wasnt out yet, it was a beta! That had just ended ;w;

I was really bummed out, then saw the original box and the troll on the back. Just great color and spell effects. Snagged that instead. A little clever work to get my mom's credit card and I was playing. It was an instant blast, made a wizard first, got lost and died in G-fay, made an enchanter and stuck with it until 40, when I got stuck in the tunnel game.

Made thousands and thousands of plat and had tons of twinks but never got anything too high.

Hoping to actually break that cycle.
