There's also a brand new game that is a complete tie in to the game. Everquest Next - Landmark.

It's a half game half tool set which will allow players to create massive continents minecraft style in their voxel world. Players can submit content and have a possibility of it one day being put into the real Everquest Next game!

Genius!

Thought I'd have a quick look. Have people been watching this guy do finger drawing for 20 minutes?

FoxEye · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:20

this just in: eq next is a game about fingerpainting

m4rk84 · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:22

This is all a bit drawn out and cringey lol...

Who decided this crap was a good idea?

mcast · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:30

5 minutes fine....20 minutes :/

FoxEye · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:35

hmm, seems that they aren't anywhere close to release. last reboot 2 years ago and 1.5 years since spent prototyping.

edit: OK, I think I'm out. This is not looking good. They've made it all cartoony

I liked EQ when it was gritty, grimy, and dark... not a freakin' comic book :/

Newbie007 · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:40

Dark elves & Ogres, good

mcast · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:46

for crying out loud, its the lion king remake

Silent-Lucidity · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:47

This looks amazing! Those facial expressions, those movements. :O

MrJohnSherry · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:48

Looks fantastic.

Newbie007 · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:52

Really liking the art direction

Classes are tied to weapons, essentially you pick up a wizard staff, you become a wizard. You pick up a warrior centric sword, you become a warrior.
*Players will create their own dungeons that others can run through, the creator of the dungeon gets 'SoE coins' to spend in a cash shop.
*Crafters will be able to download player made items to use in their crafting

as per the EQN thread the dude on Rerolled called some elements rather well

Really? It looks like it's targetted at 12 year olds to be honest.

GW2 'questing' but another level on, yeah

Tune · 2 Aug 2013 at 20:53

agree at the 12 year old, was hoping for something a bit more dark and realistic. This just looks like a ****** wildstar.
