EQ, for the first few years, had a sense of scale yet to be duplicated in any mmorpg. I know, because I've played all of them.
EQ just had a special feeling. It was less the culmination of game mechanics and players, and more the culmination of the perfect place and time for such a game to be released. It was a truly living, breathing, and tangible game world. Anyone who truly got into EQ didn't just play it, they lived it.

Anyone remember The Realm?

Oh lord, I remember waiting for boats to come and it was such a rewarding experience to level up when it meant something. Nothing was more satisfying than memorizing beautiful zones and going through Kithicor forest without being scared half to death by 1 shot casting spells. Haha! Memories...

Soulfire!! I remember when i got that for my pally =D

@ANTvith True that. I been playing EQ Since Phase 3. Now I moved above playing to helping players out in game. You are right it does not have the same feel. Sony got what they wanted and kicked Brad to the curve so to speak. He went on to do Star Wars Online. I used to remember SOON(tm) and Gm-Fippy (Fippy rules) It was quite a thing to hang out in chat. Now no one chats and almost all of the PCs are mules/merchants. Ahh the days of wolf forming all in Oasis on Xegony. 100 wolves killing! Epic.

Heh, what is Talendor doing in Qeynos Hills?

BEST GAME EVER, i loved it ofc now i play wow FML
-
LoN and Micro Transactions and SoL, GoD, and OOW ruined EQ IMO... besides the fact that SOE doesn't listen to the playerbase
-
Can't agree more. But WoW, Vanguard, etc, lack one thing that EQ created for it's players (When it was in it's prime of course) and that's emotion.

Heh, at the rate we are going?
Pong with MASSIVE paddles and cartoony graphics.
Why does this sound like a game that is already out? :D

LOL naggy charging at Qeynos
That's Brad McQuaid's paladin, and no it wasn't the epic. There are two swords that have fire on them.
