My friend is one of the devs that has been working on this game for the past few years. It’s very exciting seeing all of the attention it has been getting!
100% this. Playing WoW since I was in high school has engrained min maxing in my brain. Its hard for me to just casually enjoy games without min maxing now
@@trdraven which is strange to me. I played wow when it first released, and returned for classic many years later. It did build that FOMO in me. But it wasn't my first MMO. I started with UO, then moved to EQ when it released. I never rushed to then end with those. What changed for me? I think TH-cam tutorials definitely haven't helped. Maybe game design just pushes us in that direction now?
@@diy-mitri9737 For me it was high end raiding. You were expected to min max in high end content and I've done that for so long wether its mythic raiding in wow or savagae in FF14 or POE end game. Ive spent so much time doing it in those games that it is just habit now.
@@diy-mitri9737 it can be tough when you only have a few hours, ust want to exp and not deal with an unorganized group. I've learned to take a deep breath before logging on and realize exp is a reward but the journey is the game!
this, alongside Magic & Memories are hopeful 'Everquest' successors alongside the troublesome development progress of Pantheon. I'd like to check this out!
having not played the alpha, my guess about the crafting system: They probably intend on players having to rely on other players to be most efficient. If everyone is doing different tradeskills, then it seems like what seems convoluted as a *single* player trying to craft something becomes less convoluted. I think EQ touched on that, albeit at higher levels and in specific circumstances. Personally, I would love this crafting system. Instead of lowbies farming bone chips like in EQ, you could have them maybe mass-crafting lowbie materials for other higher-level trade recipes. idk
1:39 EverQuest Online 😂 I think every video I've watched about this game, people have made that mistake at least once, sometimes multiple. Gives me a chuckle. I myself probably did it several times too. Love the game though!
This does look like fun! Hope y'all know P99 Green EverQuest always a good option. Many guilds need people. Many like me ready to help level people also if you're motivated
I think they have said there will be more, but they have no information about when as of now. I definitely recommend trying it out, it was a lot of fun.
fellow dark elf cleric for the alpha! what i liked about eco so far was that the early stages of the game are enjoyable! you have impactful spells even at level 3 and the decisions you make matter! you don't have to bust out to max level to play the games, the game starts at level 1!
So basically everquest for minecraft... i just stopped playing everquest a bit ago, ran out of things to do each xpack too fast besides raid achievements for the op aug and spaming missions 500 times to replace all your type 9s, which ia more depressing than fun
I got to say , having been a avid fan of Everquest. Not sure why you would try to make a game of an already very dated game that is still fun to play , and make it have worse graphics than it already has. I mean , this is like a car company starting up , and making a copy of a Ford Model A. Seems like a pretty dumb idea.

Yell him great job for me! I look forward to what is coming
Yeah. Major props. This game looks ridiculously exciting!
We do have a tendency to min/max as gamers these days. Slowing down and enjoying the journey is a tough skill to master.

all you have to do is not give a fuck about other people who don't give a fuck about you and you're golden
Hehe, you said Everquest, not EverCraft... well done

I have a druid that I play on P99 green. He is currently lvl 52, I just log him on from time to time and quad kite.
What's your character's name? Im just starting out and have a 15 necro and 5 warrior if you ever wanna hang
upgraded my system and now I cant run the client :(
Honestly, the game was great. Thoroughly enjoyed the alpha myself as well. I personally didn't touch the tradeskills though.
I probably would have enjoyed this... if I hadn't rolled Enchanter only to discover they took Clarity away from them :s
got a part two yet?
When they do another open test I plan on playing again, will most likely have more to show and tell then!
This looks amazing. Sad I missed out on the playtest, hopefully they do another one soon.

I agree. At low levels, it feels like fun, meaningful gameplay, and that's how it should be!
You could always join usbin the new TLP coming out may 22nd for EQ
This looks better then pantheon 😂
Definitely!
Thanks for sharing
Cool!
Sweet! Great work!

nice
1 min 39 seconds in "I was only able to spend about 8 hours in EverQuest Online".... typo in the script or freudian sip?
100% Freudian slip, I'm actually surprised I didn't slip up more lol
You sound like you're from east coast Canada :)
Not quite east coast, but you got the country right :)
really enjoy the videos. I have subscribed.
Thanks!
i thought this was a minecraft mod at first... it looks interesting but i might just play everquest instead
Body type...not Male female...why?
Its a pretty common way to do it these days.
@@Joshthegamer8600 Maybe for huge corporations, but if you are going to capture the vibe of original EQ, they used male and female.
First

@Obxhatman its completely fair to be skeptical, but its actually a lot of fun to play. Doesn't mean it will be a guaranteed sucess, but it is fun.
"ewt" = out, for those who aren't from the worst area in canada
