This is an interesting discussion on MMOs, but this EULA issue is completely disingenuous. EverQuest has limited replay value. He enjoyed the replay on Project 1999, moved on, and only then did he experience some bizarre retroactive remorse.

I stole a cookie and I ate it and I enjoyed it, but I have now realized the immorality of stolen cookie eating, so I'm going to post about how stolen cookie eating is wrong. That won't stop me from stealing some Christmas cookies in Velious, though.

To some extent, you're right.

Nonetheless, it's a shift in my thought process.

I never read in plain language what was wrong with EQ emulation before I read the EULA. Years and years I'd just skip past the EULA. But there it's... in plain language. That's when I woke up.

Remorse? A bit. But I liked classic EQ and SOE had moved on. I played SOE's game for a long while, up until 2010. I ranted on their forums, but really it was an exercise in futility.

Honestly, without project 1999, I doubt I'd ever re-taste 1999-02. I may have touched on it in other games, but it'd be like comparing a single noodle to a bowl of spaghetti. And the chances of SOE digging up the remains of classic EQ and resurrecting them are zero. They're convinced and head strong. So using EQ emulation was wrong according to the EULA, but I also know that the value of classic EQ to SOE is like the value of dirt.

Classic EQ gameplay had value. That's the biggest thing I'll remember. It's not dirt.

So is it because of the EULA, or that you're tired of the game? Sounds like the later, I have no idea why you're bringing up the EULA.

Everyone knows it's against the EULA, nobody cares.

This is my parting video, I think it fits to sum it all up:

I think the OP is another example of the social decline of modern society.

So many people won't speak up, or won't do something just because someone else says "not to," without even questioning if that person is right or why they are asking people not to do something.
