Then Kunark came about, quite a fun expansion in itself, new zones, new levels, new content. And most important.. the epics. Oh god the epics. People completing them, drooling at 100hp weapons, items with 20+ a stat.

i thought kunark was the shit, and getting my ragebringer is one of my fondest memories, but they definatly made some mistakes. epic weapons, a mistake. better xp zones, mistake. the uber drops.. mistake. verant thought it was a good idea at the time. why? well they thought epics were a good idea obviously because eq was suspoused to end with kunark and they didnt plan more expansions. so 'epic' quests would be a good idea. and better xp and drops than the mobs of same level on old wolrd zones, the idea was a far away dangerous land with rich's. but what was their reasoning for having weapons better than the GOD's drops on regular mobs.. no one knows!

SoE took over with Luclin, and the game went down hill ever since.

'SoE' didnt take over, mcquaid left took most of the original developers and then trost left and took the rest of the original team to work on eq2. who took over is the new EQlive team.

It was groundshaking really, a world with other real players.

lol.. i was already playing action quake 2 and counter strike beta and had some friends playing UO .. so to me, and most ppl, it wasnt that groundbreaking.. 'a world with outher real players' isnt where eq was really groundbreaking.. i had clan members in eq beta 4 and the way they talked about it and the storys they told.. thats what was groundbreaking about eq. theres so many reasons as too why eq is superior to what ever mmopvp or mmohacknslash out there, it would be impossible to explain why eq is better on a forum post..
ps velious was definatly the highlight of my eq experience
