They have a game like EQ that removed all of that, its called classic wow. And its ok! Just not near as memorable as early era EQ.
I agree, 100% Those things that make EQ inaccessible to casual players or players that can't commit a dozen or more hours per week are what make the game great.

BUT - that also limits the playerbase. Not that it really matters, besides having a hard time convincing non-hardcore gamer friends to try EQ in the year 2026 lol!
