It is funny how WoW comes up so quick when it is not really relevant to the topic of the thread.

MMO players have no imaginations though, can't imagine their games being any different than they are, so they have to make comparisons to other games say anything about them.

I still think EQ could be made harder in some respects, in ways that would make it more challenging and rewarding in the classic style, if technically less classic in content, without reference to other MMOs. But I don't think anyone would be able to discuss that without bringing in some other game and fanning the flames.

Topic derailed pages ago, but I'm fine with that. I think all of us played WoW for at least a year or two, if only because EQ was in the LDoN era and WoW had a pretty awesome release. WoW was an extremely polished game, but it was much easier and more forgiving.
