It's amusing because I logged into EQ Live (Silver Restrictions) last night for the first time in a long time. Logged onto Vox, their newest server. The low level population in the Tutorial Mines zone was pretty high.
But man, it's a totally different EQ. It's extremely complicated, you get spells every level (including the shadowknight I rolled, which was quite odd), zones are extremely crowded due to mercs and players running around and the community doesn't even speak to each other.
I mean, don't get me wrong... In a pinch with no p99 it could be alright. But it's a different game. I wouldn't say it's even EQ anymore. It's more WoW with EQ baselines. Plus, as a silver (which is no longer offered) I can't wear certain types of armor... so playing a tank is extremely unrealistic.
p99 IS EQ.
