Sucks, because the Underfoot sounded like a cool expansion when it was a rumor to come back when the Hole came out and everyone wanted to know what the big door behind Yael was..

I think they used up alot of their "underground" ideas with Depths of Darkhollow.

Kudo's to EQ for producing more content, but jesus, its time for something new right? Right...?

Everquest Next should be announced within the next year I would think.

As a dwarf I was always hoping it would come out but took pride in the fact Brell was one of the few gods back then not to have been raid-raped. Looking at this expansion though I'm wondering why the main enemy seems to be insect men.

Man, how big is EQ fully installed now? It has to be a beast.

I still remember getting lost in the karanas. But once I found rathe, I was back on track to hate ;p

I still have my Everquest folder which is 6.71 gig, and was fully up to date as at January 2009.

Wow, which I just started playing has 16 gig and I think is fully up to date as well. If that means anything.

This latest expansion is just a series in shitty releases by a company (not the developers) who made a business decision to only ever provide the bare minimum possible in all elements of delivering a software product.

Personally, they should be supplying strap on udders to the playerbase that they can wear when playing (but you would most likely have to buy a lon card for that to happen) they are milking them so hard.

14 expansions later and still no new armor models.

And no new character models, or animations. All the updates that players were clamoring for when EQ still had a decent sub-base, but were blown off by the devs and SOE in seek of more profit; are now justified as costing too much to perform. But they'll pump out absolute bullshit $40 expansions like this, with 12 fucking zones, and "continuous updates for the months to come." I'm pretty sure they even made SoD weapon models so bad so they could make that a selling point for Underfoot. It's all a part of the plan. This game fucking sucks cold, hard, long, dick now, and the devs, nor SOE, are doing shit to save it. Not even another progression server. The devs dont even play the game. Isn't this retarded enough? The fucking DEVS do not play THEIR OWN GAME. Just fucking shut this shit down already if it's too much of a burden, smed; fuck.

It's like LoY just came out but instead of buying one copy, I buy two.

Sad part is, they switched to the one expansion a year model to make them much bigger and better etc.

Other than mercs last year, whoops...

Pharazon · 10-31-2009, 02:35 PM

I hope its cause SoE is spending all their dev money on an EQ3 that won't suck.

That's what they said, isn't it? Too bad the truth is they just did that to devote resources and devs to other projects while not hurting the cashflow (an eq dev or two worked on freerealms for a while and then got switched back to eq) But the truth is they did it to raise their 'time invested : profit' ratio, that's all. Expansions are as buggy and untested as ever, still.

Its funny to me how EQers are so against level raises, when its the only thing that allows the majority of them to progress beyond shit that is a year old. For so many, their enjoyment is simply logging on and killing things in the same old zones. So weird.
