    It’s the greatest game ever made. Playing it back in 1999 when there was no info on the internet was an experience I’ll unfortunately never have again.

      I actually feel the same way about runescape, I mean there was internet but I was so small at the time like 10 years old, I didn't know Google or anything so it was a world that felt so massive and exciting

    It’s the best game ever created. Try Pantheon Rise of the Fallen. It’s by some of the creators of EQ and even the guy that came of with the name EverQuest. I’ve been playing it and it’s just like EQ with the sitting with mana and open world and the same as EQ with low lvl mobs and high lvl in the same zone. It’s fun

    I played for over 10 years since beta 3. Nothing else will ever compare. I ran into a korean enchanter back in the day, his name was Highwa. He was an excellent puller, juggled adds, charm and cc’d like a boss. I’ll always remember him. We duo’s a lot in Sebelis. Rogue and Enchanter duo was not normal in Kunark.

    Buff your pet and yourself at the same time that way you know when your buffs start to wear off that his is also.
    Also the enchanter is probably the best DPS in the game fucking obliterates! It's a difficult class to get down but once you do, charm and you will outclass anybody else in the game.
    I can't believe that 25 years down the road this game is back and I am watching it on TH-cam! People will never believe that I saw marriages fall apart because of this game, I even saw people get married on this game! This game was crazy good

      During HoT on Mischief I consistently was in the top 10 on raids without a charm pet. You eventually get 3 dots and 3 nukes. When you can charm your charm spells buff the pet starting at the 95 charm.

    Tip for running for your life: press forward and strafe at same time and use the diagonal run path to outrun mobs. One of the usable quirks. Also, use bandage to heal up to 70%. Cheers,

    • @TunaSpleen
      @TunaSpleen 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      ^^^this. Unmodified/unbuffed run speed is a velocity of 30. Strafe running brings it up to 33, which is a solid 10% increase without consuming any of your endurance. Strafing also stacks with buffs and mounts.

    Haven't played for over 20 years now but I was one of the most aggressive clerics on Veeshan server around the PoP / GoD expansion. I remember I would do weird shit as a cleric like be the main puller of a group by being creative with sooth (I think?) and root.. With speed buffs I would have mobs lined up,, there was also an item I could proc that had a snare? I can''t remember. But I lost a few years of my life to this game at its peak... tried EQ 2 for a year - then had to get on with my life. Never really looked back but I do miss some of it. The Plane of Time raids when they were new were crazy and setting up heal rotations. When GoD was new and it was specced way too hard - a fucking 10 hour group session to beat a single group zone where we did it and I was literally shaking in the end from the stress lol. Crazy memories.

    It's so unforgiving that I describe it as "a fantasy world survival game" and I consider that an awesome feature of the game. For decades I claimed EQ was the peak of the genre ca 2003; started playing p99, and now I know I'm right.

    • @thatoneguyis
      @thatoneguyis 21 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Don't listen to this guy, pop is still good enough to where you have to hope to get your leveling camps if solo and can pretty much always find groups in the main routes - and get put together a duo or small group in any off track places without too much effort.
      This is a volunteer game run by volunteers, they aren't getting paid to do this, they are just re-creating old school EQ out of the goodness of their hearts.
      A new server will eventually come out, and as fun as it may sound, it is so damn packed with people that you will long for the pop to die down a bit.

    While the CC aspect is very deep in EQ, WoW classic does absolutely have CC, it's just that the players in WoW don't use it, they would rather pew pew and top the DPS meters. Mages can sheep and hunters can use traps. Druids can sleep and Warlocks can charm. It's nothing compared to EQ, but the feature is in WoW classic!

    • @McBillyBoy
      @McBillyBoy  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I agree it did have those types of CC but nothing that was super special like turning a boss or monster into a pet and using it as a weapon to help win battles

    • @Deathrydar
      @Deathrydar 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @McBillyBoy Actually, the priest skill Mind Control can do that to humanoids. Again, it's nowhere near as vital as it is in EQ, but it is useful. In EQ, CC is pretty much a must! Not only is it extremely helpful to every single other class in the group, but the skill ceiling is very high! You can easily identify a bad 'chanter or bard to a good one. In WoW classic you can be a complete idiot and still sheep or mind control something.
      Anyway,just saying it is in other games, at least one other anyway. Stop making me defend WoW, lol.
      Love your content man!

      I remember early WoW when dungeon crawls were slow and enjoyable and you did use CC. It's not like that now, it's just go go go go. That's why I still play EQ and I don't play WoW anymore.

  • @singlezergling

    To say EverQuest has PS1 graphics is pretty insulting to the game. EverQuest was released on April 16, 1999 with cutting edge 3D graphics that actually required a 3D graphics card to play. This was controversial at the time because not everyone had a 3D card to play, but the creators thought the immersion was that important. There actually was a PS2 version of EverQuest released called EverQuest Online Adventures in 2003, and those graphics were not as good as the original. At worst, you could say EQ had late generation PS2-quality graphics. Show some respect.

      Hey, I totally get where you're coming from! P99 can feel a bit slow, especially compared to newer games where you're always in action. But that's part of what makes it special. The downtime, like sitting to regen mana or health, gives time for social interaction, strategy planning, and appreciating the world. It's more of a marathon than a sprint, and that slower pace allows you to form deeper connections with other players and the environment.
      The sense of accomplishment in P99 is huge because the game makes you work for it. Every level, piece of gear, or even surviving a tough fight feels rewarding because nothing is handed to you. It's a different flavor of fun, one that grows on you the more time you invest. Plus, some of the best memories come from those group moments while you’re sitting and chatting between pulls.
