I feel exactly the same way. For my all time favorite gaming content, I have Final Fantasy Tactics and EQ's Shards of Velious in interchangeable #1 and #2 slots.

Oddly enough, EverQuest and Final Fantasy Tactics were side by side in Game Informer's 200 Greatest Games of All Time list (numbers 43 and 44 I believe).

I had monitored eqclassic.org for a few years hoping they could recreate vanilla EQ. When I learned of this place, that vanilla was live, and that the plan was to go through Velious...

Mm. Happy dwarf. Happy dwarf indeed.
I was a hardcore FFT player. I figured out that I could dupe Excaliburs, have four dual-excalibur-wielding knights with move+3, blade grasp, and monk side skills, and one black mage (with all white mage/oracle/etc skills which could be used with calc) with master calc side skills and an insane amount of spell damage gear (along with a chameleon robe to absorb holy dmg).

The first move of every fight thereafter was either CT 4 holy or CT 3 holy. It would literally kill every single opponent on the map and heal all of mine.

So ridiculous.

Gosh, now I want to play again.
