PosterOfStuff · 10-29-2009, 04:44 PM

I have cut n pasted this from the Everquest forums ...

It all seems a little underwhelming to me. And I believe not everything listed below will be delivered in December, only half ?

That is a pretty sad list of features. The only ones that should even be on there is 12 new zones, extended target window and achievement system.

To be honest as far as this expansion goes, nobody that plays still is really that excited.

Araxen · 10-29-2009, 07:07 PM

Are they going to charge $40 for this one too?

Phelps McManus · 10-29-2009, 07:12 PM

I think it has a suggested retail price of $39.99 (plus applicable taxes).

AladainAF · 10-29-2009, 07:34 PM

What a horrible expansion.

Yes, $39.99 (Its in the press release clear as day)

keep playing on emus or Eqmac

Foler · 10-29-2009, 07:42 PM

Nice, new aa's, new zones, new WEAPONS AND ARMOR, this one sounds like it will be the best yet. I might just have to come back from by 7 year hiatus

kudos · 10-29-2009, 07:48 PM

Less zones than SoD. If any of you played SoD you know how small that expansion felt.

Twobit Whore · 10-29-2009, 07:50 PM

Well shit, when you are on your SIXTEENTH fucking expansion, what is left? Geez..

And yeah I lol'd at 'new weapons, armor and recipes' at being pretty much the entirety of the feature list. Like after 16 of those fuckers you wouldn't sort of expect that. Guess you have to spell it clearly for the saps still playing EQ Live.

Took the words right out of my mouth. Lets not forget they're also implementing that awesome target system, where current users will enjoy DAYS of having to manually fix their custom UI's.

The lead-in paragraph to the features sounded extremely exciting...that was until I actually read the features. 12 new zones?

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

Kreugen · 10-29-2009, 11:01 PM

I think the bit about weapons is because they are supposedly adding shittons more weapon models than they normally do or somesuch.

But, yeah, /yawn

Troll · 10-29-2009, 11:29 PM

I was just thinking about it, and you know what's sad?

I could still find my way around (old) Norrath if you dumped me back into that game.
