Q: "Why do people play a 12 year old game?"
A: Umm, it's a fun game.

I'd love to know the point of this exercise.

There's nothing special about a 12 year old game still being fun to play. Ever heard of Monopoly, chess or football?


Well, yes you are right and wrong at the same time. But you cannot compare these games with everquest. You are right Everquest is a 12 year old game, but it is a game belonging to the genre called MMORPG. As far as i know there havent been much development in the football, chess or monopoly "genre" in the last years. In fact in the MMO genre there has been. A lot of new games have been developed. So I think it is a legitimate question to ask whats so special about Everquest. In my honest opinion: The comparison doesn't really work.
