Welcome back to Clevver Games, I'm your host Andrea Rene with news from Sony Online
Entertainment. The web division of Sony had big news last fall when they announced DC Universe Online would be going free-to-play and now another MMO is getting the f2p treatment.
.
MMORPG Everquest will be celebrating their 13th anniversary by becoming free! If you haven't had a chance to play one of the MMO's that kick started the movement, now is your chance. The game will be transitioning over to microtransactions in early March.
.
Everquest players will have three options to play the game. The first option is called Gold and it will function almost identical to the current monthly subscription plan, giving players access to the full game for $15 per month. Gold subscribers will get a monthly stipend of 500 Station Cash, Sony's cross-game virtual currency.
.
The next tier, Silver membership, will cost $5 bucks a month and will limit gamers to four races and four classes. You can purchase the additional races and classes if you choose. Silver players will also be limited to Tier 1 spells, may not use prestige-level items, and will have currency maximums.
.
The last level is the Free membership which will also have race and class restrictions, plus you will not be able to create a guild, only join. Plus, this level will have limited chat functions and limited access to Mercernary and Spell tiers.
.
You can find out all of the details of the three different memberships by clicking the link in the description box below or by heading over to the Everquest website.

should be free to play/silver 1$ amonth/gold $5 a month cause the game is just so old I dont see many if any wanting to go back to such an old title. It was awesome back in the day for its time but yeah $15 a month is way to high for that game

Ok... so I don't know why I did this, but I reinstalled Everquest last weekend. I know, I know, how could it ever be as addicting as it was back in 1998. Well, that was Friday. It's now 4PM Tuesday morning... time to uninstall!

@capsfanjon Bad review. Good game.

@TheBoxingCannabyte, oh wait, my bad, that is EQ 2.

[TheBoxingCannabyte]

@capsfanjon, I agree that it's not the best. But I grew up playing EQ 1 and no one can deny that Everquest is really the one that got the ball rolling. I remember wwhen I started playing WoW. I didn't even need to read manual, almost every single keyboard command and emote was the same. Shadowknights are also badass, btw. And it's not truly free, about 2/3 of the content is unavailable at the beginning.
