We will never get another "Everquest" type/style of game, and that because Everquest was made in a time when gaming was expensive, difficult, and taboo. Brad and Steve were passionate about games, they were working in a nursery when Smed asked them to come create Everquest. In my opinion its not about the passion anymore, its about the dollars, MMO's and Gaming in general have become an industry where there is a lot cash to be made, where as in 1999/2000 it was an art, something that people put their soul into make it as good as possible, even at the expense of profit. Most of the original eq dev team was gone by 2002. I'm almost certain all the great minds that fostered and created EQ are gone by now and want nothing to do with Smed or SOE.
