Everquest 3?

Id love to see EQ1 with redone graphics and a few new zones, keep it exactly the same.

They already did this with EQ1. Most of the classic outdoor zones do not exist on live the way we know them. They have completely been redesigned from the ground up. (Sadly the gameplay will never be like classic.)

I wouldn't mind a console game as long as it has an ok interface. What if EQ3 became the only game that allowed 360/wii/ps3 users to play with eachother? Although, keyboards are pretty essential.

Everquest online Adventures has been around for forever (celebrating it's 7 year anniversary this year I think). Although some people still play it it was considered to be a bit of a flop. Don't think Sony will invest in creating a new one based on this alone.

I wouldn't say most.

It's only Nektulous, Freeport, Steamfont, Misty Thicket, Commonlands, Lavastorm as far as I remember.

They have done graphical revamps of Freeport, North Ro, Oasis, South Ro, West and East Commonlands, Nektulos Forest, Misty Thicket, Toxxulia, Kerra Isle, Ocean of Tears, Lavastorm, Steamfont, Highpass, Arena, and Bazaar

They have also done non graphical revamps to about a dozen other zones. They also plan to continue to revamp many more zones with each expansion.

Right now its miserable. I went back for the ten year anniversary and of coarse I wanted to explore the old world zones the most. And Omfg, it felt like every time time you zoned the graphics completely change. It was so stupid and it destroyed immersion I dont know wtf they were thinking.

I think anyone would be interested in an everquest 3. I could definitely see them trying a console thing like Star Trek did. Especially if it isn't for a few years and consoles continue to improve.

It would be cool if they did a sort of prequel. Give people a help to build their favorite cities or meet some historical figures.

My mistake, you are correct....it has been 2-3 years since I last quit live.

The stupid graphical revamps they did were mostly for expansion release that zoned in off those areas....ex. Lavastorm for DoN...Highpass for TSS....Nektulous for DoD etc.

The new bazaar was done to make it less laggy...and it works, sucks tho as the old trader bays were way better than the design they have now.

They sort of did this with the 2nd most recent expansion, SoD....they had players travel back through rifts in time to important events, such as The Battle in Field of Bone, Oceangreen Village (Qeynos b4 it was Qeynos) etc.

Yeah that'd be neat, you could even span multiple timelines up to a re-boot of the original then Kunark and Velious and skip the cats-in-space debacle.

From there onward you could reinvest in the original lore and make the Everquest that should have been.
