What would it take for a new mmo to recapture the feeling of eq?

2 Rules of Making Millions in Everquest in 2015:

Rule #1: Market the same exact classic EQ experience without eventually bending to the whims of the masses by offering mercs, instances, etc... (Keep it difficult, the people who want EZ mode will be the first to burnout anyhow)

Rule #2: Update/Modify the graphics. This will please the new fan boys and for most of the old a change in graphics wouldn't be a terrible ordeal if done properly (aka no luclin). EqNext seemed to be on the right path with their environment and some of their player models.

All in all, keep the community prosperous and simply update the graphics for all classic EQ content. Re-release and watch what happens. Friends and I have been talking about them doing this for years, but sadly it will never occur =/
