So, does anyone here play it?

I have a lowbie account that I’m thinking about reactivating. Overall, I remember that when I had time to play it, it was a lot more enjoyable than playing on my various WoW characters.

Then again, I’m an “oldskool” UO/EQ fanatic.

I played EQ1 [and was a guide] and beta tested it and was underwhelmed. Unless it seriously improved I wouldnt go back to it.

I have been playing WOW since I betad that, and have never been tempted to go back to EQ1 at all. I keep getting messages from Sony asking me to come back, but I have no idea what server is left…or how many people still play, and I know that expansions have come out.
