Isn't all the minecrafting done via landmark which is a seperate game all together, with the ability to port assets into EQ:N to be sold/used.

Yeah.. Completely understand and agree but I was surprised how little I saw or felt Everquest in Everquet Next. I'm not passing too much judgement yet though. I'm really just commenting on what we know and have seen. I guess I had two things on my mind... VG 2.0 or some Action/Fantasy skinned Free Realms. I think it's better not to pay too much attention just yet. I believe come December we'll know much more.
mmorpg.com is also reporting that your weapon skills change between each class which is good as I was expecting the ESO approach where no matter what class you are if you pick up a weapon it does the same stupid thing.
I'm not super creative so the only part that matters to me is pick axing down in to a cave that i can explore which is done in the real game.

I don't know what to expect out of the game. I enjoy what they have shown, but I will agree there was a little too much particle effects going on during the attacks but I don't think every class only attacks with AOE attacks. Just seems like something they wanted to show off.
But I do enjoy that they are truly trying to get the community involved.

why are people so hung up on combat? combat's not going to keep you playing and you can forget about single-player combat in an mmo because that would be a logistical nightmare. and lol at wow combat being more exciting than eq combat. the only difference between the two was that wow required more button spamming.
It kinda is more exciting though. In the same way that any sport is more exciting than baseball, a game that requires more actions is more exciting than eq. Don't correlate that response with me saying EQ wasn't good or fun or exciting though.
i've always wanted a oot-like-navi flying around you in tutorial mode that mocks you when you fuck up and die. on death after attacking guards it'd say, "hey! listen! ...why would you attack an armored guard? did you expect not to die?" or, "why did you travel at night alone ...without a fucking light. you were asking to be raped."
in effect it calls you out on doing retarded things for which alot of people quit with the entitlement that it works the way they expect it to work. mock they for being idiots on death.

This has to be a straight up lie right? Everquest 1 by itself is HUGE

Except, we don't know the requirement to get the port spells. It could be difficult and very involved. But we'll have to wait and see, I guess.

Hey, I can finally get on here; the site hasn't been loading for me all day.
Overall, I like what I saw in that reveal. They definitely need to scale down the shoulder pads a bit (seriously, I'm not one to get wigged out over somewhat exaggerated armor, but that kerran was like 70% pauldron), but otherwise I like the art style. Destructible landscape and storybricks both look good, and the class system is intriguing, but I want to hear more about it. They probably also need to tone down the spell effects a smidge so that you can actually see the combat, but otherwise I'm not going to pass judgement of the combat yet, although there does seem to be more than a little GW2 in there,which I enjoy well enough.
One thing I'd like to know is if land ownership and structure building will be part of the main game, or just the Landmark thing. Even if it's a stripped down version of what Landmark has, I'd think they would have something like that in the base game.
Oh good, so I'm not the only one who saw that.
I can't be the only one?
