Or know anyone who plans on forking over $40 a month for 'premium' service?

Heck, I bet I could probably move over to England to play on the more event filled DAoC servers, and it would cost less.

Well, I've heard reports that the European servers will have a lot more dynamic events. That's just what I've heard, though.

Life... is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. You're stuck with this undefinable whipped-mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an English toffee. But they're gone too fast, the taste is fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits, filled with hardened jelly and teeth-crunching nuts, and if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is a... is an empty box... filled with useless, brown paper wrappers.

All the new features look great, I think. I just don't think they're worth an extra $30 a month. $10, sure, maybe even $15. But I think it's just way too much for what you're getting, so no, not unless they lower the price of the service by at least half.

No. No. No. And again, NO!!!

God damn, I hate Verant for this.

Not because of the server itself, but because of what they're gonna do to the rest of the game.

I have a friend who works in the Quest Troupe, you know, those people who run the story-based GM events? (Not to be confused with the Newbie Killing Giants in the Oasis and such, that's just GM sh!t.)

Well, let's just say that their promise of not neglecting the rest of the game is full of shit. All the manager-types in the Quest Troupe were transferred away from there to work on the Legends server.

Apparently, this is what the big "Change to the troupe" that my friend was harping about all month is.

Spits in disgust

Not only are they not getting 30 more of my bucks per month, but if the game declines like I think it will, they're gonna lose the 10 bucks a month I give.

Oh, and if you read this Rowyl, please don't get too offended. I'm sure it wasn't you who came up with all these ideas.

I'm not moving, but I also don't think it should have been in the game from the beginning. They don't HAVE to make GM events. That's an added bonus.

Um, no way in hell, I agree with Mooj. I think they need to have a same price server with more GM events, but only if you PROVE yourself able to RP well enough to participate well enough. Ya know, like an RP-restricted server.

Like Firona Vie?

Not that I consider that a real RP-server... it's just an alignment-team blue server. I like to RP my characters as oddbolls and misfits in their society, acting outside of the stereotypes of their race and class... which simply isn't possible to do on FV.

But FV is the closest thing to a RP-restricted server EQ has right now.

I haven't seen a single person here yet who said they were moving...

This may mean the Legends server is doomed to go the way of the NBC Triplecast, if the posters here are an accurate representative sample of EQ subscribers.

Unless the people who are going to move just don't want to say so.

If this would have come up before I joined my current guild I would have moved. But I am having to much fun with my neew friends to leave Bristlebane now.

But yes two months or so ago I would have moved.

Actually, I believe that while the first poll for premium servers didn't make the majority by far, Verant judged there were enough people interested for the servers to be worthwhile.
