Classic EQ can never be recreated in a profitable way. Every single review will say "grind fest" and it will turn into a commercial flop. This game will be free to play within 6 months of launch and that's because the creators will be resistant to F2P ptherwise it would be 3 months

No it will be F2P cause Brad will overdose and die.

That early EQ footage. Had a good bit of the game shown at that point.

I think this has something to do with early access culture and seeing things before they have been worked out. The old saying is still true that you only get one first impression.

SirMuttonChops point stands that things might change. Patriam's post is what prompted me to link the pre-alpha eq footage. 3 years to market.

Yeah I remember when people said the samething for Vanguard Saga Of Heroes in 06 "I-it's only in beta, that's why the models for Vanguard look so stubby and rigid!!!" and they kept saying that all the way up to the fucking open beta in January of 2007 with some saying "yeah don't worry they'll iron this out soon enough, the game is just one month out of launch!"

I have a feeling that we're going to be in Deja Vu all over again when it comes to over the top excuses for this game.

Again, I wish Brad Mcquaid luck in his endeavors and his attempt at redemption after Vanguard's disaster over a decade and I get that the game's basically being funded by nothing but a hardcore niche from kickstarter rather than any legitimate publisher, but it's obvious from the severe lack of budget that this game is going to take forever to make it out the door and that they don't have enough professional help for things like animation. Who knows, maybe things will change, but I'll believe when I see it, and history has shown to me that reality is a lot more blunt and never what you *want* it to be.

Because people would pay to play it and its a complete ready to go game that would cost almost nothing. That's why they bought all SOE's stuff

( That and because they had a firesale due to smedys big mouth and constant lizard squad attacks )

They made millions already

Ive heard even if it were brought back and you had 1k people on it like blue 99, the tools are no longer there to maintain the server or operate it.

I guess the backend was really messy and only the original employees could deal with running the game. I think for that reason it will never happen.

Best you can hope is it goes open source, or a DB leaks to the emu project and allows them to create a fully functional emu.

what you just said makes 0 sense, no one person is needed for anything in this entire world.

tell it to the VG devs kid. they post on MMORPG and said its not happening because the tools are missing/lost/gone but if someone wanted to invest a ton of time into resurrecting those tools they could do it. but the dev said no way Daybreak would.

without going open source the money isnt there.
