The everquest thread of du
Ok this is a spinoff of the ps2 thread

What do you play? and do you still play? if not why did you stop?

heres my story

I used to play SO MUCH on vallon zek. But planes of power totally ruined the game.

even luclin sucked bigass.. it totally destroyed whatever fantasy still remained. (i used to say velious did that but compared to luclin velious wasnt bad at all)

In the end there were 2 guilds on my server (worth anything)

The european guild and the american guild.. to put it short we hated eachother, we would train eachother in vex thal, they would screw it up when we killed ralloz zek etc etc, anyway i got tired of it , i found out i played it as a shore now instead of for fun. Also it sucked to just log on and hear how bad the other guild had been to us. Then my friends in the other guild would tell me what bad stuff my guildmates had done to them..

Also planes of power screwed up high end gaming. Imagine how fun it was to reflag someone who would just join our guild from scratch, involving killing bertoxxulous, ralloz zek etc etc etc just for this guy, then the next month more would join.. *shudder* i quit. Not because i was tired but because the game ultimately sucked.

Oh and to top it off both uilds had full vex thal or planar armor which meant you would go with super resists, thus making pvp sucky as hell, especially for pure melee (like me).

Basicly the pure melees was lowest of the low on the food chain,

monk
warrior
Rogue in that order.. oh and i was probably top 1 or 2 rogue on server in gear. and some wizard or whatever from some guild you wouldnt have heard off could kill me.

I am REALLY looking forward to world of warcraft which i hope will be great. Furor said it looked and seemed great.

Sw galaxies will just be eq again.

anyway i got around $500 for my 65 rogue so im ok with it.

One thing though and it almost makes me cry are all the friends i will never talk to again



anyway WARNING WARNING do NOT play everquest. It will steal precious time for no good

YES it was an INCREDIBLE game but it isnt that anylonger.
It is just a dead lake now, with old fishes eating the smaller.

It is really hard to even lvl up now unless you have a powerlever or a friend.

1. I know nothing about everquest except
my kid sold about $1000 worth of make beleive stuff to people he didn't know. It took him two days to convince me he wasn't pulling my leg.

2. I still play a little bit.
But not that much. Always have played it on a very casual basis. Now i just play a little less than before. I suppose I ought to just quit playing altogether. I probably will, soon.
