I know what 20-30 people on this message board that still play (or want to play a shinier version of) a 15 year old game are saying that's fine. But I'm not talking about a indie game company that is going to recreate an EQ you want. I'm talking about Sony putting a ton of money and time into developing a game and it's not going to be NeckbeardEQ. I agree with you 100% that there are definitely a lot of people out there that would love to play EQ1 all over again. I'm just saying that there aren't enough of them out there that a major game studio will put the effort in to make that game for you.You talk about this neckbeard thing so much it makes me think you have some kind of complex about it. You are also are incredibly dense to keep saying the same thing over and over and either ignoring or just not understanding what other people are saying.

Actually, SOE made that game you're describing and scrapped it. They didn't wanna put another WoW clone out. They are going a different direction they say. So there has to me SOME hope. If all they cared about was that crowd, they definitely wouldn't be making a sandbox game.How many of those 22 year olds are pining for a modern recreation of EQ1? If Sony is making a game, they will try to reach the largest target audience, and that won't be with the NeckbeardEQ. They will attempt to reach the 22 year olds with a shit load of time that is used to play games like WOW, Rift, TSW, GW2 etc.
Or make it just that: a map, with no gps elements, and with a level of detail consistent with what you'd expect from a hand-drawn map.No ingame map would be interesting like the old day, I'm just saying...
Agree. No need to release a game where aggro, leash and combat looks like everything else.Leash mechanics in modern mmo's are all the same.
I'm always curious why people say this. The MMO market has had two major growths, it's initial, which came when it evolved from MUDs to graphic based (UO/EQ/And others) and then another serious one with WoW. Both of these periods of large growth happened with games that were considered "hardcore". In fact, since the inception of more accessible content, the numbers have constantly trended downward (Spikes for expansion sales, but overall trending down.)I know what 20-30 people on this message board that still play (or want to play a shinier version of) a 15 year old game are saying that's fine.
