I mean how stoked would you be if you hopped into EQ3 and went to make an ogre/troll/dwarf/gnome/whatever and not only could you easily identify the EQ1 influence on the models, but they even had facial options that were similar to ones from EQ1?
If there ever was a game modeled after EQ they would model it after the most popular era, which unfortunately for us...was after PoP.

There are a lot more people out there who see WoW and post PoP EQ when they think of MMOs than see classic EQ.
