EverQuest Classic Adventures #25: The Lost Adventures

[@Asterra2]

It's really interesting to get to see this game from an entirely different perspective. I have always aimed to be in the top guild. Was in top guild on Rodcet Nife back in the day (what I refer to as being the top guild on the worst server), top guild worldwide in EQ2, and during my recent foray on a TLP where I fulfilled every last bucket list item and then some, I was in the top guild. Raid content is what I've always lived and breathed, and I think that's a major factor in why I tend to cherish the pre-raid EQ content above everything else. My best memories of the game, quite invariably, come from non-raiding experiences. Invis corpse recovery in the Steamfont mino caves. My first adventure outside of Faydwer which took me literally straight to Everfrost. Selling "magic rings" (Cutthroat Insignia Rings) back in Faydwer to everyone who'd never seen a ring with stats on it, with none of us realizing just how worthless it was in total. The best of times.

I have rewatched this entire series at least 4 times and I need more hope your well man

[@michaelcarner1963]

Yes, these are like crack

[@bluewoo313]

2018 already off to a great start!

[@Krokpot7]

just finding these videos. I played WAY back in the day and while i cant commit the time aymore, im really enjoying your EQ content for simply nostalgia sake. man, so many memories and good times. I'd do it all over again if i could, but alas, family now days. great videos, keep it up

[@juanibuypower]

All I have to say is I love you videos , I don't even play EQ but your videos are so entertaining and informative about the game that it makes me feel like I've been playing for years, welcome back Flatts and hope you can find the time to stay and keep producing this awesome content!

[@Flatts]

That is really amazing to hear. Thank you for the kind words and I am glad you can enjoy EverQuest even if it is vicariously through me!

[@Treklosopher]

2021 needs Flatts!

[@Tinfoiledhat]

I was at the docks in the hole and my internet provider cut out...came back 2 hours later ( I was a monk, no gate or anything). I got so fking lucky and ran into a group able to port me out. Scary place! Lol

[@shavedwolf87]

I went into The Hole once on P99. The place is very cool, just dying in there would be a problem. Thankfully we didn’t and we were able to delve a bit deeper than you went. Good XP like you said, you just need a solid group to go there.

[@brandonshaver9179]

I’m glad you’re back! Can’t wait for more videos

[@H4ZM4TT]

Totally forgot about the old intro! What a bummer it was so great

[@markh1011]

These videos are great. I've been enjoying reminiscing about the original EQ.

[@jacobweissman7008]

Flatts, you make some of the best EverQuest content on KZbin. I am genuinely excited to see that you have returned from your long hiatus to continue the Reptox Saga. I’m looking forward to watching your future content. It’s great to have you back!

[@Flatts]

Thank you for the kind words, I really enjoy making the content so it makes me happy that there are people out there who enjoy watching it!

[@deavonw]

[@williamclements50]

I am SO happy that you're back! EQ was the first mmo I ever played back when I was a young kid & watching your videos is so nostalgic!

[@RuneChaosMarine]

@16:26 the eddit with the monk bear and king is awesome.

[@thrillho86]

So glad you made a new video! I lol'd hard at the shammy bear wearing the crown

[@Flatts]

Hah! I'm glad you lol'd, I keep watching that bit over and over and I lol every time too. I had finished the video but knew it needed a little more flair and I was quite pleased with what I ended up with.

[@silentfantom8845]

so glad you're back your videos are amazing :)

[@Flatts]

not as amazing as your video on Dwarf Fortress, that shit is fascinating!

[@Whiterabbit74169]

Glad to see you’re back /cheer

[@MattieDiesel]

it's impossible to not enjoy a well done commentary of any classic eq content, your vids are 4.5/5!

[@justinbennett9998]

[@sharkhudson3282]

[@CharlieJapan]

OMG I just noticed I was in the video!! 20:01 Dinklege!!

[@Flatts]

Yea man, good times in Splitpaw with the Dink!

[@rock00dom]

YAAAAY, HE'S BACK!

[@mulpex]

I so appreciate your music choice :3

[@Flatts]

Can't beat that Othmir Jazz.

[@kcow]

Flatts soon there will be a new progression server on Live. I would recommend trying it out, at least in the beginning.

[@everquestfootpad6975]

Looking forward to more monk epic stuff. Basing my human monk off all your teachings, Agnarr server.. Human. Sorry. I like being liked though. Someone just gave me the fungi tunic. Free! I ain’t giving it back. Great job with the videos Flatts. Useful, and I enjoy them a lot.

[@phantasystar4688]

Welcome back, keep them episodes coming 👍🏼

[@SuperDiabeetus]

monkey magic looks good. thx for that. please do more lore and epic quests with other classes. #15 to end is really good. i rewatch them. this is like my 3rd or 4th time rewatching these end videos. please, show me more of this great game. do a vote to see what class you should do next. personally, any would be great. whichever has the best lore, i guess would be my vote. this monk lore is awesome.

[@aarongarza4769]

Glad your back dude.

[@CaptainRiftPants]

OM MY GOD HES BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@immutablecantrip]

Great video. You said Naggy and Vox were two of the three original raid target? Who is the third that you were referring to?

[@jaimeorr4661]

PAINeel is the best... NEC guild - all the ghosts. I was Divinity on P99 Blue Vox kill... they hid behind wall so they not get hit with spells

[@mapo91]

PogChamp

[@pre8599]

Woot, it's Flatts!

[@TwinNova]

Flatts. Do you have a link or any advice on how or where to download a copy of a clean, virus free , EQ titanium for new people who want to try P99? That’s the only thing holding me back

[@Flatts]

I saw a post on the project1999 reddit about a month ago that should have what you are looking for. The thread is called "Looking for Titanium"

[@GoogleUsedToLetThisNameBeLong]

Woot! Your not dead, i had feared the worst lol. Just kidding but seriously glad your back this series randomly stopping was super dissapointing. More monkly adventures await!

[@ethanlarson7304]

Has Wanaport been in any of his videos?

[@kennyrefhagen2360]

Flatts, you still around? :)

[@RuneChaosMarine]

If i dont coment, you wont make more p99 vids?

[@Mundellica]

Yes!!!!

[@sang1081]

I thought ur intro on your old videos were awesome. I even got in the habit of singing it while ur video loaded lol. Be cool if u could come up with a newer, catchy, intro that hopefully won't get tagged by KZbin.

[@Flatts]

Thanks, I really liked the intro too haha. Not everyone did tho, I had a few people mention that it was a bit lengthy to be in every single video. I think from now on I will just keep it nice and simple.

[@Concepcion30]

So, people have been playing Project 1999 for 9 years? I guess the need for expansions that drove the original EQ has no bearing on these guys. I get wanting to go back and experience it the way it was, but how could they play that for 9 years straight?

[@Flatts]

Its doubtful that many people have been playing for the entire 9 years. People come and go, there are still plenty of new players coming in even 9 years later, but I imagine there are just as many players retiring as there are new people coming in to replace them. The game in a lot of ways is not able to replicate a pure classic experience because of how long the server has been active and the way that has affected the economy but its still a very classic experience in other ways and offers people a lot of options to scratch that nostalgia itch.

[@Concepcion30]

That's what I was thinking that if there had been people playing for 9 years, even on and off they could have amassed great wealth and have the best of the best the game has to offer at that level. For me, back when I played the original EQ, I stayed mostly for the people, and after they quit or the guild breaks up, it's just not the same anymore. Sometimes when I get the itch I'll re-download the original EQ and run around the zones to see what was the same and what changed from the way I remembered it. But would never see myself getting back into any version of this game that took so much of my time during my 20s.

[@logiconlyzone]

Could you give us the name of he actual songs in the video?

[@Flatts]

Do you mean the music I use in this video or the name of the song that got copyright claimed?

[@logiconlyzone]

Flatts the video haha. I expecially love the song near the end. Not the copyright haha. Btw, sorry about the copyright issue, that stuff sucks.

[@Flatts]

All the background music I use for my EQ videos are themes from within the game, not all of them have track names so I usually just label them from the zones that they play in. If memory serves the songs from start of the video to finish are: Erud's Crossing, Velketors Labrynth, Wakening Lands, Neriak Castle (or Plane of Hate theme), Desert of Ro and then that last one is a personal favourite of mine, I call it Othmir Jazz its from the Othmir Beach in Cobalt Scar ;)

[@havoc6161]

Are you gonna disappear again?

[@Flatts]

Only time will tell!

[@prestomatic1989]

am I dreaming?

[@carolinethornton2280]

Omgomgomgomg

[@Laura-qo9cc]

:D

[@Flatts]

You know, I started this video when you sent me that message on reddit 8 months ago. I think I told you at the time it would probably be done in a few days... hah! my bad.

[@Laura-qo9cc]

Lmao :D Life comes first, we all understand! Just really happy to have you back. Gonna be doing a rewatch of the whole series here soon while I grind yeti's in dreadlands :P

[@polskastylezz187]
