Really like what I read in the Combat Update. Seems like they are taking some of the ideas they are taking EQ as a base, implementing some of the ideas they had in Vanguard and possibly some new ones. I'm mostly excited for the slower pace, honestly. Really looking forward to see if they can execute on these ideas.

What I meant is EQN has money behind it. They have freedom to do as they choose. That's a whole lot different then when you don't have money behind it (Pantheon) and you're presenting the 'vision' in a certain way. You're backers are backing the project based on what your saying now.
EQN and L is the craziest shit ever.
It's basically a kickstarter that already has massive funding from it's own company.
I hope that's not what these companies are going to.
Can you imagine if every game gave tiers of rewards based off how much you funded a year before it's even launched? Can't wait till the reall scummy companies like EA start adopting that shit.

You are grasping at fucking straws here aren't you. SOE owns the EQ IP it's in their interest to expand upon it and it's already funded til completion, they aren't asking random people for cash.

I don't fully disagree. I guess my feeling overall as of late, in this thread are people are getting petty.
You're building the assets for EQN. I hardly see any real difference. And frankly I'd rather give money than time playing with some stupid tool to make something for them to exploit.

I mentioned that a few days ago and people acted like it was the craziest fucking idea ever. Like there was no way a company would take advantage of poor gamer nerds like that.

Where are there 22 classes listed? I count 7.
Do you not know the difference between a class and a sub class/specialization? In Wow, is a feral druid a different class than a resto druid?
Do you not play MMORPGs? I don't get what's so difficult to understand here.

I've seen tons of MMO's and I'm sure you have as well where the devs blow smoke up your ass and the reality is it's nothing like what they say. In fact, from the guy that's designing this game should be exhibit A when it comes to that. This stuff is going to get criticized, this is what I meant about trying to appease the EQ crowd. They expect it a certain way and when it's not absolutely perfect, they are going to bitch.
One important thing I've gotten from the Curse interview so far is that there will NOT be a an All Race/All Class system.
There needs to be a delicate balance here. Give some freedom to the options, but within an immersive context. Trolls only being able to be a couple of classes was perfect because it made sense.
Blood elf paladins did not.
Brad also talks about how it takes rare drops to get the specialties for your class. It sounds like becoming a Battle Cleric or Curate depends a lot on drops.

Also most likely just one starting city, with factional/cultural areas; instead of multiple starting cities. Thinking again to Planescape, I hope they make it like the City of Sigil.
