worth playing againFollow

Eq population is at an all time low. Low level players are non existant. You will also have to upgrade to the expansions you missed where most players currently xp.

With Vanguard flopping there will be some slight return of players.

I dont mean to be grim but I figured you should have an honest assesment.

I have no access to server population numbers, but AB is alive and well and has a decent population at all levels afaik.

It is definitely not like it used to be. But you don't have to group, eventhough it is the best part of the game, to level up at low levels (upto 50s many people have stated, and I'd tend to agree with that) for any class. However, there are low level alts, and even new players and returning ones that have started from scratch again.

You should look at some other threads along these same lines, as there are many. You should also read the sticky for new / returning players.

Definitely get the Anniversary edition, which has all the expansions for $20, from various stores. There are several threads on it also, with more detailed info, and you can also try the sony store website for info on it.

Yther Ore.

Low level players are few, but hardly nonexistent

Ok thanks for the info people

I play on the Progression Combine server. The population seems fine at all levels. I created a new toon and popped into tutorial last night and 17 other people were in the zone. I see tons of 30-50 level groupings and raiding is going strong.
