So the long awaited EQN debuts with....

The protagonist being Tony the Tiger doing a diablo barbarian whirlwind and one-shotting everything around him while eating a bowl of Frosted Flakes in his "FRESH CRIB" that he bought on the RMAH, all the while Michael Bay blows up terrain around him for no apparent reason. Meanwhile the heroine that looks like the Vanquisher from Torchlight jumps 40 feet in the air like shes ninja gaiden and is a "Wizard". Gandalf only wishes he could tumble, double jump, and stomp the yard like her.

Maybe I will be wrong but this looks nothing like the everquest playstyle I remember. If they continue on this path I half expect Lord Nagafen to karate kick you in the face and do a backflip somersault teleport into a street fighter hyuuken, all while outbidding you on that tower you are trying to buy on the auction house, which looks strangely like a phallic object.

Hahah that was my impression of the combat too. He actually looked like Taz from the cartoons. The good news is I am seeing a lot of people complain about this, so maybe they will tone it down some before release.
