    What I loosely remember about the Kerran/Vah Shir back in the day was the Erudites hated the cats and used magic to blow them up/teleport them to the moon. The rest was put on the isle. Thus how "The Hole" was created. Kerrans: http://lorenorrath.free.fr/read.php?link=race_kerra Vah...

    They embraced DnD or ADnD, rather Bulter did. He even jokes about having character sheets older than some of the devs on the project! With that above comment with playing it and how it works Teekey posted from Reddit, it works and gives everyone something to do. No player is going to just follow...

    Ya, interviewers. You mean like the one guy (James) that never played EQ1 or 2 but yet was given a mic to interview EQnext, its great he has interest to be there but still. Seemed a bit of an odd choice to let someone that knows nothing about the game world he is interviewing about to do the...

    Good point on the previous empire not wanting to be near it but I am also going with the 500 years on Kunark. Thinking they may not know where they would be heading and unsure if there are any lands besides the rumors and stories from parents and grandparents. Maybe I will just have to accept...

    Love lore and all that. New stuff is cool but the plaguing thing that keeps bugging me is why Qeynos first and not Freeport? I started reading some of the ebooks but doubt they will explain the reason to sail completely around to the far side of Antonica? Did they really not want to allow...

    Think it would be funny if they put in illusion dropped items and spell that gave you the illusion of an EQ1 toon. Maybe a highrez version. Any word on Tinkering yet?

    Watched the World creation videos. Heals after 5min or so? So its basically static world in what is seen with some destruction but never anything permanent. So once a Rallying Call phase is started it will unlock after its finished building, that will continue to be a permanent structure. Wonder...

    Any word if the weapons and armor are voxel also? Curious is it will degrade and change looks, also if when making weapon and armor if you can do changes to it on creation. Farming! With the new AI, I cant wait to dig out some caves and do some Goblin or Gnoll farming! Track what they like...

    It's progression and very happy there are no lvls, progress doesn't have to have lvls. Example would be look at AA and faction grinds but in this case its tiers and gear grinding. It isn't even close to current MMO lvling in the scope of things as they suggest. "YOUR" argument about it being...

    The Disney look thing, it was bugging me that it didnt quite seem like disney but yet had something close. It seems like its more Don Bluth than disney, but depending on what era you want to pick from he was with Disney for some time but then left and later created Dragons Lair and Anastasia...

    What double jump thing? If the reference is the character movement video with them running in Ashfang, that is explained in the keynote as Boots of the Zephyr that allows them to float. If you are talking about something else or another video I didnt notice it.

    Dont mind selling access but rather they didnt use it as their main source of testing. Its more like crowdsourcing in some way. But reason from the quote was the kickstarter idea. Would be funny if the SOElive Reveal is to announce they just started a kickstarter for the game with teirs for...

    Soon as I see a SS of an item stats window, that will tell me a ton on how this game goes. Color coding for lvl range and/or min lvl to equip. That will equate to me it has progression of lvls with expectation that the player MUST play the "Regear/replacement" game every X lvls and generally a...

    Ya, best advice to anyone in the gaming/software field especially as a dev is to NOT admit to who you are on any forums. This goes for on here or anywhere else. Just look at the Fez II thing in the past few days as a shame example in both directions. As a dev, first create a normal account...

    I too love different starting zones, games that condense this to 1 or just a few comes off as lazy to me. There is no reason in having new players segregated to a small piece of land that once you leave you can never return or trivial to the point you may never want to. Thats just poor planning...

    If your asking at a Q&A and able to ask, I would like to know if they are going to have vendor reselling. I really miss that. If you dont know what I mean, I am talking about when you sell a item to a vendor, they reposts it for players to buy. I used to spend hours shopping vendors to get...

    Funny how evolution comes full circle with Race/Class/Deity raid items rotting. How many items still laying on the field in PoF or other zones like that from old days due to no members being able to use it. Tribute helped but not much and was way later in the game by then. I agree with you...

    Eve is doing well, it isnt due to PVP but lack of other games like it. EVE in current state of things is comparable to EQ in its golden era time, limited competition. The closest game I semi remember but didnt have the chance to play was Earth and Beyond. They would increase their subs if...

    I am getting a kick out of training the friendly party groups I find. Getting XP from it also, good way to clear the reds. Tested out a boss in the area and it 1 hit 3 of the 4 party members then killed the last one, thing ran after me for what seemed to be forever. Best fun I have had in some time.

    XP potions for lvls? What about XP pots for AA gains. Maybe I missed the sewing circle on this. Seen more gain with AA than lvls. Besides, they can continue to sell XP pots for AA gains once most players hit max lvls which generally can be fairly fast with Hotzones and Double/Triple XP...
