Well said. Even the difference between bleeding-edge-content pros and the so-called "midcore" folks who are always playing catch-up is gigantic. Good players bring out the best in each other, and together they become great players. Mediocre players drag everyone else down to their level. EQ was truly a team sport.

I haven't played since 2013, and I really miss it. Pic related was the world's only kill on Sanctum Somnium 5 before it got nerfed into oblivion. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember it like it was yesterday. Same with other things like our first Rallos Zek kill. And there was our first Kerafyrm kill, which ended while I was tanking with Deflection while I was deep in the purple club. Gave a whole new meaning to "tanking the floor."

I haven't had any MMO experience since EQ that could even vaguely compare. No moments or events or achievements that have stuck with me. Everything is so vapid and shallow now. Things in EQ felt like they mattered. They had weight.
