Teek and Tormax arrive Earlier in the week I gave Daybreak a poke when I mentioned that the Cataclysm Classic launch was unlike some of the Daybreak launches, with a projected go live time and an actual go live that sometimes arrives many hours later.  But the EverQuest…

EverQuest Anniversary Time They had been slotted in for a may launch on the somewhat bloated 2024 roadmap. The EverQuest 2024 Roadmap If that image is hard to read I have it broken out in detail in a post from earlier this year. Last week…

Friday Bullet Points about EverQuest Related Servers and Launches

Recently Daybreak dropped a bunch of information, including a few of producer’s letters and, were I looking for things to expand upon I probably could have turned all of that into at least three 1,500 word blog posts. But who has time for that when CCP/Fenris is trolling us with their Ansiblex nerf?  So I am going to mash this all together into one bullet points blog… though I am likely to…

The EverQuest Time Locked Progression Server Frostreaver is Live

The first of the TWO special servers slated for EverQuest this year launched this week.  Named Frostreaver after… something I am sure… there is too much Norrath lore for me to keep track of… it is the server idea that they pulled together after polling the user base earlier this year.  (Many related links at the end of the post including my analysis of the results.) Frostreaver… either him or the…

The EverQuest Frostreaver TLP Poll Results - Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!

I mentioned back in December, in a Friday Bullet Points post, that Daybreak had announced not just one, but TWO special rules servers for 2026.

Mischief is Coming to EverQuest

Mischief is Coming to EverQuest

I suppose one of the problems with the special server thing, at which the EverQuest team has done very well over the years, is that after a while you end up having done the basics, done what the fans have asked for, and even done a few things that didn’t make a lot of sense.  At that point you start searching for new gimmicks to keep the special server idea fresh.  And so the EverQuest team is…

Darkpaw Announces and Adjusts Plans for the Rizlona and Aradune Time Locked Progression Servers

Darkpaw Announces and Adjusts Plans for the Rizlona and Aradune Time Locked Progression Servers

Sometimes it pays to wait a bit after Daybreak announces something as they are a company that is willing to change their mind in front of a live studio audience.

That can be a good thing.  As I said back in the SOE days, they do try to get to the right answer.  The problem is that their starting point does seem oddly wrong at times.  I don’t think this was necessarily one of those times, but…
