I don't understand though... SoE has been trying to not make money for years. I was in Software development and administration for around 5 years and maybe gaming is different but I have never seen such blind direction. EQ an EQII could have easily been more profitable and so can EQNext. I would play EQII today if they would make 2-3 major changes but I guess it is easier to develop a game further and pile more crap onto the existing piles of crap?
It's like they take their dog out to walk, pick up 1 of the 3 terds on the ground, and a few hours later just bring their dog to take another dump on the remaining two terds. Picking up one terd for years just isn't going to cut it. The pile is only getting bigger.
They changed EQ to near unrecognizable form and continued expanding it to where the beauty of the game has been left behind, emptied, and forgotten.
EQII still has 100 hotbars
EQNext is releasing 0 teaser content. Come on... there has to be more than we have seen. If not, let it die.
