I played this in high school nearly ten years ago now. Took me two years almost just to get to max level, I don't think I'll be going back to doing that again. Doubt there are still enough people playing that still remember how to play anyway, wouldn't be much use going back to try to do anything in a group of high level players that don't really recall how to play their character.

Yeah I went back in 2007 or 2008 for a free week and I have all the expansions up to that point. Just didn't seem as fun because I didn't remember much of anything about playing Cleric and ended up just making a druid that I barely got to level 20 on before the free week was up, plus no one I knew ever showed up during that free week. To be honest though when I played those guys were probably 25 or older and I was only 14 or 15 so they probably have better things to do in their 30's than play a seriously out of date game that requires a huge time commitment to get anything done.

Edit: I'm looking at the site and they still require a 15 buck a month payment to receive full access to the game which is kind of shitty. Even if I went back I lose access to nearly all my good spells because silver rank doesn't allow access to anything but rank one. Oh and no Elves, couldn't even play the character. Yeah no thanks.

I can't see too many people coming back to play a 13 year old game for full price again, maybe if they dropped it to $5 but $15 is extremely steep for such an outdated game. If they really wanted to revive the game it should have been truly free to play with the option to buy access to the progression servers and shit like that. There are so many free to plays on the market that have the same stupid limits that are more up to date, why would anyone choose to put up with EQ?
