Every new larger-scale mmorpg has used something like it and 'the engine' was never very good to begin with. Are you guys serious? They made a few bucks because WoW was easy compared to EQ and suddenly every game in town looked like it. It's basically shit on a screen. The graphics are terrible, the art direction is crap. The mash-buttons-to-win you could get in Space Invaders but that takes more skill. It's basically the reason why people don't get into MMOs. Can you honestly say that WoW is more immersive than EverQuest? It's mass-produced garbage for the undiscerning masses.

Lol you just dislike WoW so this reply is very bias. Also we aren't talking about the WoW game content just the game engine. If you know a better game engine then WoW's please enlighten us all. EQ's game play was very slow and clunky. Again CH chains, OP slows and tank/spank raid mobs isn't a hard game. You just need numbers and people to poopsock spawns. Also EQ is a game based off D&D so the game play reflects that. WoW on the other hand is based of diablo's fast gameplay (at that time) and EQs MMO roots. That's why older gamers hate wow because D&D wasn't a fast paced game. The ONLY thing that makes EQ a harder game then WoW is the time sink grind for everything. Also about the art direction you said that "sucked". Every MMO out there that uses a some what real looking engine has tons of bugs for whatever reason (EQ2, vanguard). The art direction they took worked very well in favor of FPS and your ping.
