@Darksworn - On the notion that a new MMO reaching back into origins of the genre, Dullahan is correct. No one is making a game that goes back to foundational principles established in 1999. EQ may still exist as a title, but it is not the EQ of 199…

The game does seem a bit like plagiarism to me. Completely shameless in the way they've basically cloned EverQuest.
You could make that argument about every MMO because EQ was the precursor to every other 3D MMO. Almost …
For all you folks complaining about $5 a month, you do realize that there are many different backer plans that dont involve a monthly fee, right?
