I relate to the love OP has for the game and the memories it created. It's sad that MMOs didn't truly build off what EQ did but rather went away from its design. Modern MMOs don't really resemble EQ at all sadly. I'd love to play "eq with updated graphics" and if anyone ever manages to do so I'd play in a heartbeat. I hope someone does it eventually...but if not, always have p99 to fall back on.

One thing that might have been a huge part of the magic of original EQ is the online aspect and playing with other players all over the world. When EQ launched that was half of the selling point and part of the allure and magic. Now playing a game online with other people isn't "amazing" and it doesn't captivate the audience like it once did. I think this is why we've all become pretty jaded and solo most of the time or stopped socializing with others. I'm not sure that part of the experience can ever be recreated again.
