I say FFXI will smash Everquest. People are losing faith in sony online now and I am one of them. Look at Planetside another game run and produced by them. It has some of the worst community of people EVER. Everquest Online Adventures everyone on the forums is agreeing when FFXI comes out Everquest OA will die horribly, it's already got a low population in addition to patches every month or so tweaking a single stat, or maybe the best part yet, the only event run on Everquest OA, orcs attacking a larger city...sounds great right? 2 orcs every half hour spawning in the town...quite litterly too.

But look at what Square has done with thier online game and you'll see Sony just can't compete because their too lazy to do real work, ignore the players (they did this in all their online games I played, just ignored what we wanted nad did what they wanted and let people who only ruined other people's fun run loose just so they get their 15 bucks a month.)

So in short Square good Sony dead.
