Who cares about SOE? the original EQ team wasn't SOE, it was Verant and I believe none of the original Verant guys are left at SOE.

Actually it was. The original team was 989 Studios which was part of Sony (they actually made mostly sports games).

When the budget got big and the big-wigs got scared it was spun off as Verant Interactive to limit the damage should it flop. Once it was successful, Sony bought Verant back and created SOE.
