If you're thinking of doing something in the EQ style, you'll probably have to be proficient in C++ as you will have to add metric tons (as in "man-years of work") of custom server-side code, and that's just server-side.

It would take a fella with a lot of passion to do this thing. Wouldn't it be nice if nilbog could just copy and paste his into an unreal engine game.

I've never worked with Unreal Engine but I'd messed around with Unity, more specificly to moddify daggerfall unity (https://forums.dfworkshop.net/).

unity is by far the easiest and fun game engine
think you need to know c++

You should make an everquest quake map and let's duel! I'll even host the server permanently.

Not sure what EQ zone would be a good candidate for a deathmatch...

I kinda immediately think of Sebilis but it has too many dead-ends.

Velks would make a great quake map!

OP: you needs to form a crew! You’re obviously a world builder, but you need lots of different people with different passions and talents. Scripters, game designers, story tellers, ui designers, etc.

I have a lil boy so have skimmed the surface of Roblox (no laughing at the back) and finding artists with talent to complement each other is how much of the user generated content is created there.
