I agree with you. The fun part of this is, brad is using those mechanics the players made as a design doc. Rather than doing it all over again and letting the players find new unintended ways to play the game, using that nostalgia to drudge up old feelings on a design doc that isn't even made yet on a poorly designed kickstarter page to try and gain money so SOE will further support it. Holy run on sentence.
We agree. You can't create it. Now if he released this game to new and different ways players started making their own choices and different versions of trains, FD Pulls, Kiting, etc - all came about in completely different play styles we do not know about yet, that would be impressive. But that won't get people to give their money away. Nostalgia is capitilizing on that with the most basic of overviews from EQ.
Amazing.
