I don't know.... this seems like the best expansion they've released. Only way I would come back though is if this allowed me to completely bypass the other 2-3 and just let me enjoy this one.

Can we get notes like this stickied? I know Tad gave us a couple of lists as well. Maybe someone even consolidate this to one post. We may need a new post that is just for information where we can post and someone add to the original post then delete ours.

How are raids going to work? I don't see a tank going in, holding aggro, while casters cast essentials spells like slows and debuffs, dps strategically unload, and healers fight to keep you alive. What I see is everyone running in and using AoE spin attacks while making a big hole in the...

I think Georgeson already said that he was wanting more educated, war general type ogres. To me, it looks like an old Chinese elder just turned into the hulk.

I have been seeing a couple of comments about release, beta, etc. What I heard today... Landmarks later this year.. I believe it will released shortly after PS4 and will be DLC like Minecraft was for Xbox. Smed said something about once release it will be 6 months of working with the...

Drakkin's were a race in EQII i'm pretty sure.

I think lore is Sunday but I wanted to see if I followed the sand art.. Apparently dragons wipe out everything and now Norrath is rebuilding. I'm assuming that you have the choice to rebuild Norrath (i.e. take part in progressive portions of the rally quests) or side with those currently in...

Stuff like Rally Calls takes participation... If its not worth the player's time or effort it's going to fail. You have to ensure they are not annoyances as well. Think about all the games that have tried this.. However, I would love to have gone on a raid just to see my house or even city I...

The lion/kerran just doesn't look mean. They kept talking about about how rough and gruff they wanted to make everyone and they put Madagascar in it.

Good stuff Tad.. keep it coming. Is he asking these questions or just reporting?

Sure.. who doesn't. I can give a list of games that I want to believe in. They each possess one thing or another I wish I would have seen today but when it comes down to it, they all lack something that prevents me from playing beyond the first month. I've yet to see anything that can get me...

Wait wait wait... What did they say about PvP?

I agree with this too but we have to face it, we are the minority. Just as I posted earlier, they did what they set out to do. They are taking what current, mainstream MMOs are and attempting to go the next level. They are attempting to take the rinse, wash, and repeat out of MMO's but within...

I was thinking just the opposite. I was feeling if this wasn't EQ we wouldn't have even cared due to other major IP's coming out with some relatively hyped games. I really felt this would have been lost in the shuffle.

Instead of commenting further on what I did or did not see today I want to share a hope. Sitting here watching Lord of the Rings this evening with my family, we were commenting on how you could nearly escape into this world and story. I felt this was true about EQ and Norrath. However they...

Yeah.. Completely understand and agree but I was surprised how little I saw or felt Everquest in Everquet Next. I'm not passing too much judgement yet though. I'm really just commenting on what we know and have seen. I guess I had two things on my mind... VG 2.0 or some Action/Fantasy skinned...

In regards to the character art and expressions, they do look much better in the game and in context. It is very Dreamwork/Pixar but the girl really looked great within the game. I'm not going to stress so much about but another concern I have with Georgeson is that he loves gimmics. See...

How much of that combat was real though? I'm telling myself that everything was done just to show off ability that Georgeson thought was cool. Surely it won't be so action game heavy.

Ok.. I've digested this long enough so here we go. First, the major point, I really believe they are striving to achieve what EQ1 with this game. Honestly, I think they are taking the right steps. Judging by what's popular mainstream, this game is a step beyond what those games are doing...

Why does it seem to me that EQ1 and EQ2 may give a better showing than EQNext. I hope not... EQ1 ... Plane of War and offering nostalgia based story lines (they have Brad on the team so his brain may be useful after all) seems like a great plan EQ2 ... An expansion based on well-known EQ...

The theme music if beautiful, cinema quality, but there is not one note that takes you back to Everquest. As others have said, EQ has a very recognizable theme song that really shouldn't be changed. I think that was one thing about EQII's music is that you found bits of Everquest's music in...

You know.. I didn't even think of that until now. Do they have no standards? You're on the cover of TV Guide, in Time Magazine, and claim to be the cream of the crop and that was the most classless, poor showing of a company I have ever seen. Again, there's a place for this kind of stuff and...

Does anyone from SoE read these forums? I know its the first night but I think I can give them a little bit of insight of how not to look like sideshow.

The score is cool and everything but I don't hear "Everquest"

Seriously.. EQN is really leaning towards Free Realms. That's what i'm feeling.

No... No... No.. I would love for someone to bring that to my desk. I would have fired pretty much everyone and anyone within 100 ft of my office.

Is PlanetSide 2 really that good? I'm sorry, I really just didn't even give it a look this year or have I read much about it.

It's cool they are doing stuff for their more dedicated players. Heck, some of these guys are probably really talented and kudos to them but you don't do this on a main stage on the first night. You bring out heads of the company, play a bunch of nostalgia and then tease the heck of what you...

Boogie2988 wannabe...

Ok... i've spent a big part of my life in the eastern tip of Kentucky and i've seen better scripted, organized programs at a county fair.

They really know how to create the appropriate atmosphere for this event.

Enter Sandman... really? I guess i'm back at my high school parking lot in the 90's. Seriously.. i'm just complaining because its the only thing to do while we have a "begin shortly.." screen.

Yeah.. why in the world are we not getting some cool EQ Music or something. I'm already losing faith. I like the small details covered when it comes to stuff like this...

I personally don't expect a 2013 release but do you think we'll get a date or will they go for the usual Q#? release as a target date. I hate when they say something like a Q4 release... give me a month and a year.

I'm not a huge fan of Georgeson personally but I think it is primarily result of bad timing. It appeared to those of us (the few of us) that really played EQ2, by all appearances, Georgeson seemed to be the downfall of a game that was finally beginning to take shape. Everyone loved Scott...

I've always enjoyed this community and I'm hoping that others either revitalize or resurrect with EQNext. I think that is one thing I miss most of all in MMO's are the various communities that were created outside of the game. We'll talk more about it i'm sure after the announcement and...

I'm assuming it's all PST correct?

I do have another quest that I think was addressed some time ago... We know this is an alternate or parallel timeline/universe but just how familiar will the zones be to the long time player? We will going to see the same starting cities and zone progressions? Or are we going to just see...

Yup.. I was just saying that EQ probably feels if their Facebook and Twitter is working well and they have decent hype among their fans, they probably are not too concerned with marketing. They pretty much have all the major social meeting outlets founded. I'm sure they'll be in magazines and...
