Exercise Your Newfound Wings in Everquest II

wow they are desperate to get people back

wow, this game still exists?

It's like a bad looking Aion.

wow, this game still exists?

I'm sure it looked good on paper.

I remember being so hyped for this game. Seems like like an eternity ago, now.

The launch box it came in had like 5 or 6 install cds. They never recovered after WOW launched.

This almost made me hate Wagner.

@AngryRedPlumber: To be fair, Wagner was a racist, anti semitic bastard.

Could not get through the music.

That music. Ugh.

More like Flight of the Failkyries.

Groovy Wagner!

I'd rather go play Aeon... a game I played for month when it was released and I'm still paying £8.99 a month for now... why can't I remember my login or they could just use simple direct debit so I could easily cancel it. Good times.

It looks like a mod for Oblivion.

This looks pretty bad

Everquest? What year is it again?

looks like they used a normal player to film him and his buddies, then cropped out the chat and status windows.

Oh, Flight Wings. As opposed to those other kinds of wings.

what the fuck? give it up everquest, you've been dead since forever. go make a new game. :/

people still play this?

Red Bull wings. I'm rocking those right now, actually, they're the only thing keeping me afloat.

edit: DEAR GOD THAT VIDEO WAS TERRIBLE IN EVERY WAY IMAGINABLE.

Only crazy people still play it.

wh...whaaaaa?....i don't mean to be harsh but this seemed like a legitimate joke, i guess lighthearted never hurt anybody. I think it was the butchered music that did it for me...maaaan.

Who the hell is still playing this game?!?!!?

I mean, the number of people still playing it can't be worth the amount of money needed to make this right?

Wow, that looks goddamn awful. So much for dying quietly, I suppose.

This is pretty goofy. 
 
Anyway, whatever world pvp was left in this game is ruined now. Woop dee doo.

Not great, but not bad for a fan made video that SoE decided to use. It could be worse, see SWTOR.

I feel the need to be like (almost) everyone else in the comments.

OMG THERE'S LIKE PEOPLE PLAYING THIS GAME ZOMGWTFBBQHAXZORSINMYTOMATOSOUP!!!!!

Lots of people still play it, thank you very much :)

Also, now that it's fully F2P, population wise it shot up big time (like most transition games have done).

Lol yiiiikes I dno about this one, SoE.

don't let Kim Novak watch this. She'll scream "Rape!" at Wagner dubbed over with rubber bands....

Now that it's F2P, I think I might try it out.

Of course, I say that with a lot of MMOs and never bother, but this time might be different, I am totally devoted to checking out Everqu....SQUIRREL!

Jesus Christ Almighty!! The hell was that? I didn't know whether to laugh or cry

I don't know why I had the urge to do it, but I installed this game again. Made a character, killed a couple bugs. Logged out and then uninstalled it. I think I am good on EQ2 for the rest of life now.

What in the hell. This looks like something out of Second Life.

That music could only have been chosen by someone who realized that if they're gonna make a video full of crap, they might as well go balls out.

@Mr_Skeleton: my thoughts exactly

Amazing.

Once again the great minds at Sony have made us all go...

wft?

Oh wow. EverQuest II is still a thing. ...Holy god.

Special thanks to:

*the last thirty people playing this game*

EQ 2 isn't that bad I played it a little last year and had some decent fun with it but that video was Shit.

I was just about to ask if the people they thanked were in the video or were the only ones still playing.

I feel that dubstep might have helped this video.

So everquest is basically a district of Second Life at this point?

i love all the everquest2 is dead posts, eq2 is far far from dead. Make a toon on freeport server and see how dead it is

This just reminds me of that annoying flying weasel in kinectimals xD

To answer some questions and make some comments:

1. "Who is still playing this game?" - Enough that Sony continues to support it. In the MMO world, even having 50,000 subscribers makes you a success, depending on the scale of the game you are running.

2. "What the fuck is up with this video?" - The video was created by the community most likely, as the Special Thanks portion lists a ton of character names of players. In turn, it's not going to be some big, lavish production of a "commercial" or "trailer".

3."Isn't this game dead?" - Actually, The game recently went Free To Play, which has boosted it significantly since that occurred. Before that, the game was still very much populated.
