Some pretty lame restrictions in place, probably not worthwhile. Doesn't come remotely close to LOTRO's F2P model, which is excellent.

I agree but there is like 20x the amount of content in EQ. Just sayin'

Completely true, but check out what you can and can't do.

New accounts/characters can only be made from the following choices

Human, Erudite, Barbarian and Gnome.
Warrior, Cleric, Wizard, and Rogue.

4/6 bag slots (depending on free/silver member)

Given the number of "Silver" Accounts I'll have, I don't think I'll be needing to create any new characters.

I wouldn't have gone w/ barbarians in that race selection though... they are only able to be 2 of the 4 classes. Dark elf would make more sense.

Definitely happy about this as I occasionally get the urge to take a look at all the old zones.



Any word on when this actually happens? I tried logging in to EQ but it wouldnt let me.
