This argument comes up time to time. It's an age old discussion. I think the best way I have heard it articulated is there is something down inside people with power that do not want the easy way. They want resistance and competition. They want people to rule and to see them be ruled...

Iceman was always may favorite too. Growing up it seemed like an obscure choice especially with everyone always wanting to be Wolverine on the playground but it is surprising just how many people you find that like Iceman. Pretty decent considering he's never really been a central character.

This guy needs help... I see no point, even if I had some faith in this game, to put that kind of money into it until someone demonstrated some financial interest and a competent team was formed.

I keep forgetting about this but I'll be on as well. Looks like fun if nothing else.

Don't mean to double post but doesn't Apocalypse consider Iceman one of the most powerful mutants? If my memory serves me, Iceman had several demonstrations of pretty incredible power in the 80's. Given his first appearance was what.. 1963? Nevertheless, Iceman deserves to be buffed.

You have a valid point and I agree but they seem to choose which mutant gets what approach. I mean come on, just because Hugh Jackman and the Wolverine compounded is a lot of coolness doesn't mean he gets to walk up to Dark Phoenix with insta regen and stab her. Then they make someone like...

I'm not sure how many times i've spoken to this but to beat the dead horse a bit more, Iceman is extremely powerful. In X-mean one he is immature and that is somewhat noted early on in the comic series but he's not a push over and he's not a junior high boy going through his first crush.

Still waiting on Iceman. Supposedly early 2015. Magneto does look good. Haven't really kept up with the game but does playing a Villain have a direct impact on hero play?

Agreed... one of my best memories as well. Traveling from Freeport to Qeynos was always fun. I can't think of how many times I've ran into other players and spoke along the way. The Karana bridges were always cool but it just felt like an adventure going through towns, seeing random cottages...

The more I try to play MMO's, the more I come closer at this realization. I really may never play a MMO again. I try time to time but it just doesn't last. I would love for a classic EQ server to pop up just to play around in with some of the grind taken out of it just so I could get 2-3...

I feel ya.... I don't know how many zones to this day I could probably still navigate every twist, turn, spawn, and drop.

Several come to mind... getting stuck in a death loop on a Vox raid. Getting my Epic. But one that really sticks out in my mind was the time one of the raiding guilds needed some extra healers to clear PoSky. At that time, I had a decent reputation but I hadn't jumped in the raid scene yet...

As a cleric I was always one of the last to leave the zone after rezzing everyone and ensure everyone was good to call it a night. I cannot remember one instance where I zoned out. I was always teleported. Maybe there was one and I never used it but PoH was always one of my favorite classic...

It's crazy isn't it? It is almost unbelievable... did we actually play EQ with these people? (or these types of people?)

The DLC for Mario Kart 8, Hyrule Warriors, Smash Bros., Pokemon Tekken, and Zelda 2015... sounds like someone had Nintendo finally woke up. They might as well start printing money. I may have to get a second job just for all the Nintendo stuff coming down the pipe.

Muligan21 - late night (EST) and weekends - have headset/mic PS4

Please tell me you guys have read the comments to the YouTube video.... What i'm afraid of is they're actually serious.

I wonder how even Brad himself stands some of this crap? Surely he misses the days of some level of professionalism and sophistication... you know, walking around in offices with cubicles, selling hundreds of thousands of boxes, having teams work on expansions while other troubleshoot and...

Man this looks like fun... Looks like I may have to start this up.

Smedley is a pretty funny steamer. The game has a lot of potential.

For the love of goodness can we get a release date? Seriously... how much longer must we wait?!

My question is will their new ideas and systems be sustainable. We've seen a lot of niche ideas and rehashing of mechanics but in the end people want to progress and get to whatever is considered the end game. How much of their ideas are going to bring in the core player base. How much of...

Really interested in this... I still have my EQMac Client on my Macbook. What do I need to do to help out? Also, anyone seen or spoken to Hobart in a while? He always seemed like a cool guy willing to help out.

The game rode a downward spiral after Scott (not saying he was the reason good or bad but that's when it kind of happened) but from all reports this next expansion has done a lot of right things. We'll have to see but I listened to the keynote and I liked what I heard and i'm a pretty harsh...

I can't believe i'm saying this but do we have some RR people anywhere on EQ2? I don't think i'm going to dust my Templar off but think of rolling Ranger for giggles and playing the expansion. I have Destiny and H1Z1 (hopefully) in the near future but I really liked what I saw in the keynotes...

As much as I have hated to admit it over the years this is true. By SOE taking the Mac Sever down and making changes to classic content, they want us to move on as well. There's a much greater population to tap into and those of us that were brought up with pencil and paper, MUD, Ultima abd EQ...

Not to poor cold water on all of this but ultimately what I heard is this game is around 3 years away and I can't tell if this is going to be ingenious timing to give people time to forget how mediocre MMO's are today or if they're going to miss their window of opportunity. Three years from now...

Sad really... EQ2 wins the keynotes for today. Maybe I'm partial because I'm from Lanys on EQ1.

Had a couple of friends in attendance said I needed to check it out. They said it was best thing of the weekend thus far given EQNext 2017 and no H1Z1 release.

It's a pretty fine line. If you consider LotR high fantasy you can't really put The Hobbit in the same category. To me, it's a different style entirely. I can sit down and read my 6 year old The Hobbit. I must be the minority here but I love what Jackson has done. I thought I would get a...

This... I actually spoke to Holly about this and she said it was something that has been tabled for years but they have some type of beginning/newbie mode that simplifies this down to some point but honestly I forgot what she said.

He irritated me last year. Couldn't they hire someone that was either funny or charismatic? Drunk Uncle would have been better.... seriously.

What's up with DayZ apparently heading to PS4 or was someone at work just pulling my leg? Also, Smed is crazy if he doesn't get this thing out the door soon. To me, it's the best thing at SoE this year knowing that EQNext is a year or more off.

I hope there's a Namingway in there....lol

I think he's just covering himself on release dates or exact days. I think he'll still say something about Q2 or Spring or something generic. They may get away with not dropping any dates this year but eventually people are going to want something. I can live without any references to dates...

I bet we get an announcement in regards to an alpha or beta timeline for EQNext. I think they may even give out some keys. I'm still feeling we'll see EQNext next Christmas with a big beta giveaway on the anniversary. I also think H1Z1 and Landmark open beta & release dates will be...

I just hope they don't over-itemize. One thing I liked about EQ is the unique items exclusive to certain areas. I would say every person who played classic EQ remember each item they were gunning for in addition to where it dropped, the placeholder for that mob, spawn timer, and common vs rare...

I would love to see a large crossover take place. Secret Wars maybe. I believe they did this with the 90's cartoon. I like the Civil War and Infinity Gauntlet series. You would have to pry Spiderman and Fantastic Four out of Fox's hands and they're not quite done using them for toilet paper.

Why deviate from this???

One of my favorite shows...
