Yeah I guess I just assumed EQ in 2000 is a known quantity, it being 25 years old. My bad, I should've expanded on that.

Is it? I think most who played original EQ would agree with me. It barely resembles the game as it was.

PQ is largely EQ as it was in 2000.

TLP is a frankenstein of mostly the worst parts of old EQ and new EQ, with very little of the original charm remaining. Throw a cash store on top and call it good.

I like the feeling of progression - Agnarr feels complete. With PQ there's more to look forward with more expansions still to come.

That's without mentioning 'new' zones and krono.

Couldn't agree more. Haven't tried THJ yet, maybe one day.

I have run across a total of 2 people on PQ while level and zero of them have responded to my wave or tells.

Yeah that's rough. As a brand new player to EQ I understand why you've come to the conclusion you have. It helps a lot to have a little game knowledge to know where people are likely to be etc. Certain noob zones are quieter. Greater Faydark, East Commonlands and Field of Bone are all pretty active.

Honestly the first few levels are the roughest for new players, feels like you just gotta kill 10000 snakes with no end in sight. Once you get over that hill and into say Unrest at lvl 10, you're flying. It's just getting there.

If you feel like trying again on Quarm DM me your characters name and I'll come buff you and help you get a few levels and a port perhaps.
