EverQuest Review - A Look Back At This Classic MMORPG
30Welcome to the first in my new series reviewing EverQuest and EverQuest 2, and today we're taking a look at the first MMORPG in the franchise, and a few of the things from the classic EQ that I miss, while also keeping an eye towards the future of the series.
Whenever I look back at the nostalgic moments of EverQuest that resonate with me, I think it's important to view it in the lense of "it's ok to look back at the past as long as you do so with an eye towards the future."
I am not one of those players who continually go on about how EverQuest will never be as good as it was "back then," or how I won't play anything other than Project 1999 because anything post-Velious "isn't really EQ." I very much appreciate the hard work the developers continue putting into this game to keep it alive with new content, even if the new content hasn't been anything that has struck a chord with me since I originally stepped away once EQ2 launched.
I love the progression servers, and it is my sincere hope that continued support of EverQuest (and EQ2 alongside it) will eventually give rise to the next game in the EQ franchise, so this video is, for me, a way to look back at some of the things I really loved about the original, while also appreciating where the game is now and playing it for what it is today.
