Remembering EverQuest: Ten Years of Memories

What do you say about your first real MMO game (I played UO too, but it's not the same) that does it justice? Is it the bronze armor which took me forever to get a full set of that I wore so proudly? The 30 minute boat rides which made me many friends? My most memorable was probably the epic journey to obtain Soulfire, which was this kick ass flaming sword and the first step of the Paladin epic. It was disjointed, hard to follow and one of the most awesome things I have ever done. The final step required me to go into the back of the Freeport Militia guardhouse and kill a half dozen guards and Lucan D'Lere himself thus ruining my faction and requiring me to use the sewer system for a very long time.Despite trying to be the first to obtain Soulfire on my server, a Paladin named Landario beat me to it by hours and forced me into second place. I can't believe I ever cared about owning a low-res flaming sword before anyone else, but such was the draw of EverQuest.
