[QUOTE="Meech17, post: 9291970, member: 7044459"] I love EQ. It was my gateway into fantasy. I was only eight or so when my older brother brought home the game and started playing in 1999/2000. Kunark had come out, Velious hadn't. I used to fill up all of the character slots of his account on servers he didn't play on, just making new characters and exploring their towns and newbie areas. I'd get to maybe level 4 or 5 before I started to out level the starter yard, but be too scared to venture further and start over. I'm currently playing on Project Quarm and having a lot of fun. I also played a TON of EQ2 as a teen. One thing I'd like to inject into my D&D game is EQ's faction system. So many quests and creatures were tied to faction, and there were a lot of strings being pulled. Doing this quest raises your standing with faction A, but lowers it with faction B. Being forced to make these choices would lead to interesting political tension I think. "We want to achieve Goal, and Faction A can help us do that. But by working with Faction A, we're going to distance ourselves from Faction B. Is this something we want to risk?" I was also thinking about trying to map out BlackBurrow and turn it into a big dungeon. But to be back on track, no I don't know of any conversions.
