So many good memories playing this tutorial I borrowed from a friend before I got my own copy of the game. I remember playing the demo whenever the live servers went down too. I really should try out some of the classic EQ emulated servers out there.
I love everything about it, the aesthetics, the world… its nice to play as a way to hang out with friends with how chill it is. Check out Project 1999, people are nice and theres a fair chance someone will give you some hand-me-down gear. (Dont play a pure caster solo, spell research is suffering)
Norrath is super cool I will say. I have fond memories of the game and playing around in the lowbie zones.
every now and then ill go back and just wander around old zones i never got to really see, or boot up p99 and just go around the cities and look.
I played around a bit on live a couple years back and did some tours of the old cities, very nostalgic.
