Is it, though? Good for its time? Of course, obviously. Good now (considering how subsequent games have evolved the genre)? I don't really think so. Especially without Kunark, imho.
I'm shocked most people here think it is a good game, especially compared to title's released these days. EQ is a poorly designed game by most current standards. I play because I enjoy the lore, the people, the nostalgia.

The game being difficult (it's not) doesn't make it good: TMNT being difficult does not make it a good game.

The game requiring many hours of sitting at the same spawn for minimal payout doesn't make it good: "Watching the paint dry" has still not surpassed video games in popularity.

EQ was and is a chat room with a game running in the background, putting much effort into saying it's a *good game* is silly. That being said, I love it all the same.
