Poll: Will you purchase Underfoot?Follow

Had to pick maybe... since I still haven't bothered to get Seeds of Destruction.

I've done so little of the 65+ game it is not like I need more things to do. I understand the majority needs some fresh stuff. I like the concept of Underfoot though, so that might compel me.

That is a very good question, I have been asking for some time.

All I can boil it down to at the moment is some new targeting system, some achievement system, few new zones, new AAs, new spells. Oh, and half of it released in December and the rest in April. I think most people are assuming the usual $40 price tag which seems like an awfull lot for what they are previewing thus far.

I am firmly on the"maybe" fence at the moment until I see exactly what is on offer - or get a glimpse at beta.

I picked no, this will be the first Exp that I didnt get. Theres no reason I'm not in a raiding guild so theres nothing in it that I will see

It makes me wonder as well. The last "supposed to be a level cap+ ended up not being one" expansion was GoD... it didn't fare so well at launch to my memory.

Possibly not enough population was deep enough into SoD raiding and they were worried about stretching people out too thin resulting in frustration (and therefore potential exodus of player)?

most likely i won't be bothering with this one - everything i have read so far just doesn't seem like anything that will interest me. i'll admit that so far this seems to be the best thought out storyline of the expansions.. it seems to have a little more depth and detail than most... but even with that said, it isn't a storyline i care much about - a whole slew of new indoor/underground zones where i can't use my horse, whoopie!
but, i'm going to wait until it's acctually out before i pass final judgement...

Maybe here... it will largely depend on whether or not they do another server merge. For me ...Prexus... my 10 year plus guild is all but dead. I see other guilds popping up but none with real substance.

Server Merge = Yes I will buy the new expansion. If I have to wait for a merger, then I will wait to buy the expansion. No sense in buying something unless you can use it huh?

I understand your point about the mounts, at the same time the lack of compelling indoor group content (I love the old-school linear dungeons) has kept me lurking expansions behind for years. Maybe this is the one that makes me "grow up and level up" as it were...

I am thinking I may just wait and purchase underfoot when the next expansion comes out with a lvl increase, seeing as all previous expansions are now bundled. I am thinking that I will be able to gain AAs better in SoD and SoF zones than in underfoot seeing as the mobs that just showed up near the hole as trash mobs are hitting in the 3-4k range and often.

once i found the test server i dont need to buy any more expansions
this has been my home server for the last 2 years

Probably not, because I don't trust SOE to deliver the second half of the expansion.

I used to say that if they opened up a realm with Brell, I'd have to jump back into the game. However, I just can't see it. I'm probably 4 or 5 expansions behind at this point, and I just don't have the energy for it.

I'd be interested in any screenshots of Brell if they do have him as a boss though.

Lol, I picked Yes, but there needs to be a 4th choice of get it free because you went to Fan Faire :)

Actually Everquest is a massive game that supports all kinds of play styles, including solo, small group, just friends, group, guild, and raids. That's one of the amazing things about the game that there's something to appeal to nearly everyone.

People playing the game in different ways than you aren't doing it wrong, they're doing it their way just like you are. A good company wanting to sell products generally tries to support all possible consumers - in the case of a MMOG we're talking about soloers to raiders. That's why a couple people mentioned "hooks" - things to draw people in regardless of their play style.

Be inclusive, accept the way others play, it makes you friends and makes the world a better place. Everyone logging in to EQ is keeping the game alive - that's me, you, and everyone else, regardless of their play style.
