Classic Daoc was the closest to eq in fun. didn't know there was a emu for it, a link would be cool.

Really enjoyed VG... however my whole guild packed up and left for AoC (great idea!...) when things got stale, just couldn't bring myself to go back after AoC fell in a heap.

If they could boost the Australia community I would go back to my Monk and Dread Knight in a second!

Cool, I only beta tested DAoC and never played retail. Will be interesting to check it out. Is there anything like that for the original Asheron's Call by chance that someone is aware of?

As I eagerly await kunark, has anyone ever found an mmo like eq i could do in the meantime? Meaning

1. difficulty
2. outstanding group play which makes the grind fun. no instances so youre sharing the dungeon and developing community
3. requires CC. ive found games that dont...its just a button smashing fest
4. each spell or ability cast is important. each one takes thought, not like the current MMOs ive been playing where again, its a button mashing contest. for example, here as an enchanter I get very few casts per battle which makes every decision a potential gamebreaker.

Ive tried alot of them, but hoping maybe you could point me towards one I have not.

Ragnarok Online is as close as it gets.

It's more pvp centric, though. Completely different view, class system, etc. too.

But as far as high-end PVE goes, it's close to EQ in difficulty.

EXACTLY!!! In FFXI most classes could not solo at all, there was named/PH's camping, also had a moderate to high difficulty (depending on class). Was an all-around good game......

and yes ff14 is an abortion of a game that is never to be spoken of again [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
