IMO if you are putting in the effort of making a Unity game you may as well make it with modern graphics and make a new game that will attract new players. What you have to realize is that EQ was made with Unreal engine 1 using the best graphics they could at the time. If you want to follow in the tradition of EQ you would make a new game using new graphics using the philosophy of survival mmorpg. Lets create the future with what we learned from EQ, not stuck recreating the past. The only real classic killer would be a new mmo that recaptures the spirit of EQ. People will play the titanium client (or an earlier client if someone gets it working) if they want to relive EQ. Period.
