Old EQ devs talking about EQ dev. This is why it went to shit after Velious

I'm still listening. At 50 minutes. Just before that they describe what developing the expansions was like as far as pressure from the top.

I didn't listen yet but that's pretty much all I need to know and expected.

I've been there both sides. The endless desire to make it perfect, to achieve The Vision, and nothing gets done, versus the news that a Very Important Salesperson made a Giant Deal and the date was the date, ship it or perish.

I am, like, really curious what's giong on with EQ right now. There is so much presence online, more than I even seen in a long time.

Sorry but velious was terrible, it was an endless huge mob hp grind and no progression other then gear

Everquest got alot better at luclin, sure some zones sucked but pop was the best expansion and era of eq ever

Stfu

Counterpoint: Velious was in fact quite good and fun. Checkmate.

Yea, I wasn't going to engage that troll post.

Theres no reason at all to use your raid gear once you have all the stuff you want other then make an alt

0 progression

Most of you are stupid and garbage

I think AA's are great, but need to be reset when each expansion comes out. You shouldn't need 50,000 AA's in 2020.

Yea, no reason to keep showing up to support your guild to help them get their gear and grow the guild. Opinions like that are selfish and short sighted.

Stupid and garbage? Yea well, that's just like your opinion man.
