as a kid, all your life you've been told what you can or can't do, forced to do things and go places you didn't want to and treated, well... like a kid. everquest was an escape from that, with all its immerse aspects, it said, "here's another world where, whether you're 10 years old or 40 years old, everyone has equal potential. go where ever you want, whenever you want and do whatever you want, the only thing holding you back is your own abilities. you're finally in control."
