My buddies and I started playing in early 2000. This was our first MMO(some of us played UO). We all played up to GOD then left to WoW,SWOTR, and a few others. Now we are all back here. These are the reasons why I love EQ:
1. Fear of death (no other game made you so pissed)
2. Community(early WoW had this during raids where our guild would shoot the shit during easy bosses)
3. Gear. UBER gear takes a lot of time. A single spell may be a quest that takes 6-8hours of game time to get.
4. Risk Vs Reward. EQ got this right. You want to lvl fast? kill higher level mobs or go to a dungeon. Push your luck and you just wasted 4 hours...
5. Nostalgia. My buddies and I still talk about or 35+hour camp in Lguk for us all to get a FBSS
