I've been playing WoW off and on since 2004.

I could understand if they were more popular than EQ when all of the games were new, but they weren't. It's like these other games aged better or something?

I want to say the issue with Live Everquest in 2026 is that Live has always been chasing WoW. But WoW is just better at being WoW. So you get the worst of both worlds, where you lose the classic feel of Everquest, while being a worse WoW.
I haven't played Runescape in 2026, but I heard that it is more true to the original game.
So perhaps Everquest is just the farthest from it's roots. That's why people play P99 instead.
