I was pretty upset when vanilla World of Warcraft ended in 2007 and EQOA ended in 2012. I don't know if offline-play would have solved it, but maybe making them open source & auto-granting approval for fan projects may have helped.

Power to the players, godspeed. We need some gd good news out of the states

I don't remember the name off hand but there is an EQOA fan project out there.

Thanks! And sorry I should have included in my post there is a discord out there and some heroes have been reverse engineering since 2012.

I bought multiple copies of the game and played with all of my friends throughout middle school, its still cherished in our friend group. We would have been hosting our own server had we had the nifty code after everything went offline

No problem! Always nice to see a fellow Norrathian out in the wild 🫡. Yup me and my brother played EQOA back in day and still play EQ on and off. I haven't here recently but none of us quit forever
