Right, but I think my point still stands: in classic EQ (and specifically in-game, as is being proposed in this thread ... not in some secret GM area no one can see) we never had static memorials (like a statue of a flaming sword).

But we did have "memorials" to all sorts of things: McQuaid's as mentioned is one, but there's "memorials" to Game of Thrones in Qeynos (in the form of NPCs named Joffrey and Sansa), and tons of stuff like that also. Again, I think it'd be more "classic EQ" to make any Brad memorial a "living" part of the world ... not a dead/static one.

I'm not so sure about that. I'm almost positive that there are hidden memorials in game that the original devs put there without telling people...inside jokes, etc.

Many of the NPC names were homage easter eggs (or even just inside knowledge) to other RPGs or their own characters in other RPGs...one or two of them probably posthumously.

I watched videos on YouTube on Everquest history this week,
Was sad to hear what happen to Aradune and his staff ☹️, and also how EQ live
Went under.
Want to Thank Rogean and his staff for keeping EQ alive!

On youtube I've been getting linked a lot of retrospectives on EQ, eq mysteries is over 120k views, seen some top 20 why EQ is the best game ever video's

I feel like there is this buzz in the air about a little classic eq resurgence but maybe I am just being hopeful. Maybe its brad's energy buzzing around idk but its awesome to see this game getting so much love so many years later, it really is a testament to how great it is.

Maybe I'm being a big softy, but Brad really did have quite an impact in our world, I hope he's happy back in Norrath whence he came.
