One of the new areas coming in the EverQuest expansion, Veil of Alaris, is the Resplendent Temple. Beautiful and peaceful on the outside, the Resplendent Temple also hides zones fraught with danger and mystery. MMORPG.com has teamed up with the EverQuest team to bring our readers an exclusive first-look at EverQuest: The Resplendent Temple. Check it out!

ROFL I tell you what, you make a MMORPG that runs for over 10 years then come back and preach about turds, the engine is ancient but it still has  a loyal sub base hence why they keep keep pushing out updates.

Hope that covers why they do updates, its not for fits and giggles and its SOE if there isnt a buck in it they will not even get out of bed.

back when SOE had some respect..hope they get back to basics with eqnext

I can not understand posting anything negative about a company still supporting a game as old as this. I think it's great that people are still playing and enjoying a game this old.

How did you think the graphics would look? Seriously? Why the hell did you even bother clicking the link to the video? Did you think that SOE revamped the entire engine and just didn't tell anyone? Suprise!! we made EQ a new modern game with stunning visuals and decided to keep it all quiet until now. Painful.

Great job, truly inspiring :) 

Anyway, that zone looks amazing! I feel like there's great story behind it! I might just resubb Everquest for this to try out. (:

Looking good , having played Eq1 from 2000 to 2006 i wish i could go back and relive EQ like in the old days but i cant go back you simply cant .

It's so inspiring seeing young developpers working on a game as rich and old as EQ.

Good job 

Aww my first MMO I absolutely loved it. It still is such an amazing game.

Worst designers in the industry.

EQ1 still is maybe the most habited MMO that SOE has.

There simply isnt a game with as much novelty as EQ1 to make those who love it to move.

  lol and  you think wows design is better i suppose,not everyone likes hideous cartoony graphics found in wow

You brought up wow, not me... where is your head at? Defensive about something? :)

WOW is a clone of EQ.

How anyone can enter into an arguement about the two games is beyond me.

All WOW added to EQs level based, point and click, kill x of y questing gameplay stlye was cartoon graphics and a bit of polish.

They are both utter turds and responsible for the retardation in development of the MMO genre. 

The swine people who dwell underground and "live of filth and decay", hmmmm I wonder where she got inspiration for them whilst working at SOE?

Anyone who thinks WoW is remotely a clone of EQ1 never played EQ1.  The fact you think EQ1s gameplay was about questing proves this.

All those negative nillies in here most probably weren't even born when this game released!

Anyone who knows EQ1, can show some appreciation and respect for this video.

With the limitations of the EQ1 engine, I think they really pushing the limits with this expac.

Nice video!

It's great that they're building on it.  Vid looked sharp.

The first "kill x" quest in Everquest would have been in the Lost Dungeons of Norrath expansion, which was released over 4 years after the game came out.  Then again, I should know better than to expect people to know what they're talking about when they bash games on this site.

2 thumbs up for the new zone and much respect for eq.
