EverQuest Next, p99, and on
An article I just finished on the demise of EQN which draws upon p99:
"There is a literal army of gamers waiting for that exact game; a significant niche market gravy train that has been waiting patiently (and increasing in spending power) for almost two decades to throw solid money at whomever would step up and do the job. Fan art has been painstakingly produced showing the potential of the idea. A large sub-culture of gamers continues to play EverQuest in its original form on the Project1999 emulation server, holding to the hope that sometime, somewhere, someone is going to get it right again." The Lesson Behind The Fall of EverQuest Next

Pretty good read. Agree with most of that 100%
"holding to the hope that sometime, somewhere, someone is going to get it right again." Hits a little close to home eh fellow Elfsim99 pals? | ||

All the modern MMO games I've played have been shit. They look great in screenshots, but you get into the game and it's sterile as hell, boring, hand-holdy, and hampered by unwieldy mechanics and ideas that sounded great in the press release, but were never practical or even needed.
The problem here is that they keep trying to make one-size-fits-all games that appeal to every possible playstyle, gender, political affiliation, and sexual orientation you could come up with. In trying to please everyone, they fall short of pleasing anyone and the game fails. It's 2016. We should have MMORPGS so amazing that I want to transplant my fucking brain right into the computer so that I never have to stop playing. Instead I'm still playing some cokehead's elf fantasy from the late 1990's. | ||

my wallet anxiously awaits EQ3's cash shops, each of my characters will have his or her own cosmetic pet and all the transmogrified skins from classic EQ that they add in. Those old kunark clickie armour skins will probably be about 1.99 to 5.99 each.
for a "premium" monthly fee they'll let you link your old account to the new one, perks of this will be a title like "of Xegony" or "from the Nameless", a separate merc like pet that loots for you (requires hourly gold upkeep), a set of epic quality gear you'll never use, and of course a mount so you can get to the end game asap. and of course the other bonuses for pre-order-early-access-day-1-dlc-day-2-dlc-head-start-premium-access-platinum-level-account
