All we saw was a basic dev demo that could mean anything a few years down the road when they actually populate the world with their free labor scheme. The fact that they said NOTHING about how they plan to set up the games rule set is the most worrying thing about it. Will it be EverQuest Solo Adventures with a TF2 like cosmetics store or will it have any substance? I doubt if even they know.

This is definitely not EQ for me. Nothing about this game reminds me of EQ. In fact, I'm more convinced its Azeroth. With that being said; I played WoW for 6 years and liked it. This looks like another game in the same table as WoW, but with completely new concepts.

Ill continue to play P1999, but absolutely can't wait for this to take my "modern MMO" slot, which I currently have none.

From the EQN website:

Our character classes are streamlined and designed to be mixed. Want to be a teleporting rogue or a backstabbing barbarian? The choice is yours!

There you have it folks
TELEPORTING ROGUES
BACKSTABBING BARBARIANS

what's next, tradeskilling fire pets?!

Probably means teleporting like was shown in the demo. Shadowstep.

Your coming off sounding like the 12 year old Japanese girl I was talking about. Well maybe you are one. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] The game SUCKS plain and simple. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] It is set up for little kids.

12 year old Japanese girl would have more sense than you, "OMG GAME SUCKS" when seeing a short reveal which in turn did not show anything that mattered.(core gameplay, social interaction, penalties, etc)

You know, all of the reasons people play p99. I do agree, however, that this stuff will probably be dissapointing when revealed as well. The point im trying to make is that the things that have mattered weren't even revealed. I would be pretty ignoramus to state anything is good or sucks at this point in time.

I agree with you, its just that the things that they did show were incredibly suggestive and reminiscent of other titles... in a bad way. They hinted at some wonderful technical "potential" but every new MMO tries to do that.

I just wish they would have been able to demonstrate that they have an actual vision for their game beyond tell us what to do folks.

Sorry, I came off too harsh on you. And you have some good points. But to me the Video was just a TOTAL letdown. It just looks like WoW on Warp Drive. No way in hell am I going to play some game with lighting bolts, and fire, and dirt clods, smoke, etc, going all over hell and and back. And toons with weapons and shoulder pads bigger than they are running around like Ninja's.

That stuff appeals to 12 year old kids. But guess what, when EQ first came out most people playing it were 12 year old kids. I can sort of see why they have taken the same route. Its all about the MONEY. But not going to be my money.
