To inaugurate this latest entry in a growing line of add-on products, Sony Online is throwing a Launch Party in Las Vegas, Nevada, November 4 th and 5 th . Even a full year and a half after its initial release, EverQuest continues to expand in number of players and in size and features, fiercely maintaining its grasp on the top rung of the online gaming ladder, fueled by a resolute passion from players and designers alike. It is a strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept, an object of desire or deep interest. To me, it is a desired thing to have.
Passion is good.
Lack of passion is detrimental to well being. The official EverQuest message boards are a bastion of passionate activity. Ever since I started work at Verant Interactive, first as a Game Master, then Lead Game Master, and now a writer for various projects, I got in the habit of reading the EQ message boards on a daily basis. The message boards were created as a means to open up lines of communications between the players and Verant. It is intended to be a place where players provide valuable feedback about EverQuest, and to provide suggestions on ways the game can be improved.
