Everquest Classic

[Compnewbie01]

Here is a website that is attempting to recreate EQ Classic before all the expansions. It runs off of EQEmu and requires the Titanium edition of the game ($10-20). Great idea for old players and even new players that never got to experience the original game (today it is completely different). It still appears to be a few months out, but definitely worth waiting to see how it turns out. After the initial server is brought up, they will release the second expansion after 6 months and the third after another 6 months. Also, the goal of this is to be 100% original as well, the current SoE progression server still included many spells/abilities and game mechanics that were upgraded/added/modified over the years so it wasn't a truly classic experience.

I don't think we'll see many people jumping on the boat here, but it is an interesting idea for those of us that played EQ from it's beginning back in the day.

I'd be in for a little bit of Classic EQ, although I can't grind it like I used to.

Progression servers are good and all that but unless you have 20 friends for a guild it's probably pointless, ya? Otherwise you're just hanging out watching things progress like you did originally.

Are there like major fights in the progression servers to see who does what first? Sleeper, Time, etc.
