This was the first MMO I played and I have a lot of fond memories wandering around Norrath with Ryan. This game was the reason my parents ended up switching from dial up to broadband lol.

Our first characters were Halfling Rogues, starting off in Rivervale and the Misty Thicket. The game was so wide open, you could do whatever you wanted. Getting anywhere was also a challenge, so even getting to another city felt like an accomplishment.

When Ruins of Kunark came out, we made Iksar characters, I remember playing an Iksar monk in particular as we wandered through Cabilis and the Field of Bone.
We played EQ through Ruins of Kunark, Scars of Velious, Shadows of Luclin, and the Planes of Power expansions, and came back for the Legacy of Ykesha (Froglok race).

So much fun.
I played this a ton when it first came out, and played Conquerors shortly after its release. Ryan and I beat the original campaigns and even tried out some of the first "multiplayer" modes that the game offered around 2000/2001. I picked this back up in 2016 when the definitive edition came out on Steam and played through The Forgotten, The African Kingdoms, and Rise of the Rajas. My all time favorite RTS game, this will always be a classic!
