Hahah I got killed by a wooly spiderling

[Aetherial]

After spending a weekend trying out EQ2-Extended for free...

I downloaded and logged on to Project 1999 last night.

In one of my early fights, I got killed by a wooly spiderling [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Then I attacked a skeleton, but did not notice that it was the Vengeful Lyricist wandering around everfrost [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] I died.

I died a couple more times from Bear or Spider adds.I played for about 2 hours off and on and am not level 3 yet. I have like 1 gold, not all of my spells, and a few piece of cloth armor and my newbie club.

In three hours of EQ2-Extended, I had like +stats all over my equipment, I was level 15, I had been led by the nose through like 1298213 meaningless quests, fights took about 10 seconds, and I was bored out of my mind.

Yes, the original Everquest is a far different animal than the crap that is out there today.It is just more difficult, and a better game for it.
