Saw this on my usual MMOlite news channel:



Yes. The title includes Everquest 3, and there's apparently some teasing from Daybreak about it. Video above is set to the part about it (which is very, very sparse).

EverQuest skin thrown over some generic mobile mini-hero game with no gameplay and just item+exp grind.

That's the best case scenario.

EQ2 is such a good game that they'd logically need to follow it up with another genre buster

How many games has Daybreak actually made and how many years have they been around for now?

Are they actually a games company?

Precisely this ^^^

How can you claim to be a game development company when you have all of a couple real programmers and everyone else called a developer is just a game designer using excel and editing script files?

Download the EverQuest game client TODAY, and start the install. You will see the thing tries to install BING bar. It's that fucking old. They don't even have the time, resources, nor care enough about their image to update their installer to at least THIS DECADE.

At one point in the past, SoE was a game development company. Today DBG (aka SoE renamed) is just a company that is hacking the existing game made over 15 years ago.

I say that even though I am a 17+ year EverQuest addict, so I'm not just some DBG hater. It sucks to play a game from a company that literally doesn't give two shits about their products, IPs, nor customers.

I swear to God if I ever won the lottery, I would buy DBG, and fire the vast majority of the people there from middle management up, shut down the California office, open a new office in Austin, and hire a whole new staff of ACTUAL developers that WANT to make a great game.

Bank your money and don't waste your time.

I always thought a solo RPG in the EverQuest universe would be interesting.. But then again, I thought a Gauntlet style dungeon crawler in the EQ universe would be cool too.. so who knows?

Gauntlet EverQuest

- White cleric is out of mana
- Also Green Druid is back from the 30 minute afk to rebuff everyone and is now gating to safety
- Red warrior is pulling more mobs because reasons
- Black necromancer is running around screaming like a chicken with its head cut off "GET IT OFF ME!!! GET IT OFF ME!!! HELLO TANK!!.1!"
