The more I research EQ next, the more I realize SOE is full of shit and there is nothing of a game built yet. They seem to have no answers to questions that should be simple 3 month into development.

Also, when did the word "stylized" become the not so offensive word for shitty ass cartoon graphics made for the mickey mouse club.

The game looks like a hoop dream with a bunch of "dev speak", flashy particle effects to wow the WoW crowd, and Smokejumper throwing every gimmicky trick every mmo has puked out for the last 10 years with their own SOE terminology for said stolen gimmick (rally calls ect)

Calling it here, LATE 2015 release.

Also Georgeson is one greasy dude. I can't believe i'm going to say this but Brad seems legit compared to this dude.

You're confusing what you like with what other people like. I'm telling you it is LOL the MMO + Minecraft. The average gamer will go nuts when it's complete. I don't play Minecraft much anymore, I find it dull, but I recognize that millions of people love it.

SOE should make a ton and they should take some of that money and make EQ3.

SoE will never make a real sequel to EQ. It was almost an accident that EQ was made the way it was. Nobody realized what it would become or there would have been more oversight. A lot of the systems we enjoyed about EQ would never have made it in the game if SoE's management had realized how big EQ and mmos would become.

SoE and all the other game Dev studios are blinded by WoW and all mmo's success now. They drool after it. And their mantra is "DON"T SCARE THE CASUALS!". SoE is run by pussies. But they aren't alone in that, all mmo devs are pussies.

I like what they are doing with EQNext in regards to the voxel stuff and lack of levels. And I'm sure it will be fun and fresh for a couple months. But I have no hope that the game will have any challenge or long term sense of accomplishment after playing it. SoE doesn't have the balls to make that game.

So even with the cool new tech, EQNext will still only be fun for about 2 months, just like all the other boring faceroll mmos that come down the pike.

i'm not confusing anything. people "think" they like something, but then they realize they are wrong. see every fucking MMO that is currently out that isn't called warcraft. if this multi classing system is so awe inspiringly awesome, why is GW2 so fucking bad? if these epic events are so great, why does rift suck? if twitch based MMO's are the future, why isn't everyone playing TERA? why do you think that having an MMO orgy of all these shitty games will somehow make EQN good?

Lol. I love this argument. Well GW2 sucks, so there's absolutely no way it could be done better. Rift events suck, so there's absolutely no way it could be improved.

You salty motherfuckers are comical. Keep it coming.

Anything player made will be compensated. If another player buys your tower to add to their castle, you'll be compensated. From what I understand its real cash, not station cash. Some creations are unmoderated, and some require CS approval. Since Landmark is a content creation tool for EQN, I'm going to bet that texture packs, etc won't be for sale. There will be issues no doubt with copyright etc.

Can we be honest? I know you guys are circle jerking over the idea of EverQuest 3...but do you really think it would pull massive numbers? Would it even get more players than the original EverQuest? You can call them pussies all you want, but making EverQuest HD just doesn't necessarily sound like a good business decision. I know you guys would love it, but you guys certainly are not the majority.

Hell, I played EverQuest like a mother fucker...but I was also 17 years old and could ditch school to camp my epic mobs for 12+ hours straight. Is this really what people want? I guess maybe I've just become too much of a casual pussy, but I can't see that game style being popular to even most EverQuest veterans. Most people have grown up and moved on. We still want a fun and engaging social experience, but we don't want gigantic boring time sinks.

I'm saying monetize landmark itself. Not selling assets to SOE for their use or for EQ:N. I'm talking about SOE making money off landmark that isn't "having players work for free". I'm talking about, you want pink bricks? You pay for it. You want some certain material or object you pay for it.

I'd say Landmark is the only sure thing atm, EQ:N is so wildly up in the air it's not even funny.

That's even too scumfucky for SoE. More of an EA move, that.

I never thought I would say this, but I hope they give even more tools and control to players in Landmark--including the ability to add mobs, create classes, etc. At this point, it seems like that is my only hope to get the MMO I really want.

Lol, all the casual games are failing already. And it's because they are too easy and made for the casual pussy. A sense of challenge is what humans crave. Not faceroll boredom.

Good games sell because they are challenging and made well. If EQ was remade and they did a good job of it then of course it would sell. Don't be daft.

I agree.

Dark Souls and Skyrim's Legendary update speak to this.

But a game can be challenging without forced grouping at static camps with boring combat systems, no?

Even EverQuest Next could be the most unforgiving MMO ever made if they tuned it that way.

I like what you did there. I was going to make a post of all the things that they said were going to be in eq next and post every game they stole the idea from. It's like they took everyone into a room, wrote down a list of top selling games and said "what are the three best things from this game?".

I'm pretty sure that there is no EQ next atm and they just went crazy with the hype because Smed got into brads stash, stayed up for 3 weeks and when Smokejumper came to him a day before SOE live and asked what he should talk about, Smed said "fuck your shit, just wing it pony boy"

Another point. When I played EQ I was already deep into my career and engaged to be married. I still managed to play in an endgame raiding guild with required attendance. It didn't hurt my career, my marriage or my time out at the bars with my friends. Just because you are incapable of managing your life doesn't mean everyone else is.

Hah. That's fine. Do you really enjoy 12 hours camps?

EverQuest in many ways felt rewarding because you invested so much goddamn time, not because it was necessarily the hardest challenge (other than a test of patience).
