I won’t blow them up unless they want to come forward. But we have a 30 year (I think) old which is pretty young for EQ. Anyone else able to beat that?
So what’s their story? They couldn’t have played much of the golden age back in the day. Wanted to just try out Old school Everquest?
Parents play TAKP, so they play TAKP with them. Or they played P99 and discovered it sucked and went to TAKP instead. I went from P99 to TAKP so I could do a single group with just my bro. Was a good transition.
For the longest time I was always the youngest person in my guilds in EQ. Now I’m 30 and often am still the youngest. I first started playing when I was 8? A half elf Paladin in Blackburrow in 1999.
I am the third youngest, as I know, member of Paragon. With my age I always expected to be the youngest member in any EQ group I was part of.
I was guilded with a couple who met on EQ and ended up having 12 kids or something crazy. I bet some of their spawn are playing on here, they'd be around 15-20 years old now.
I would daresay my wife and I have the youngest players on this server. Speedz was a great help in getting our accounts set up back in 2017 so our family could all play together. Four years later and I bet our kids are still the youngest players here by a long shot.
I never would have thought you were that young Darchon. Your knowledge of the game led me to believe that you weren't just a young pup!
started at like 12 or something in 6th grade friend showed me eq around time diablo 2 was big which i played. thats how we became friends " you play diablo 2 too !?" im 30 years also now, as for people who actually played back in the day and not children of said people im thinking im on the younger side for server, when AK had pc crack come around and i started there i was 21 at the time and that was def young for sure for the guild i was in then
been reading / interacting in / playing AK / TAKP related content for a third of my life, good job devs!
My son is currently waiting on an IP exemption since we weren't content "just" playing three characters between the two of us, but he's still just 10. He played on p99 some with me previously, but it wasn't much fun for him because of a true duo's limitations, and we only ever played just the two of us. Fortunately with 4+ characters here, we'll be able to put together a more active party without him associating with scary internet strangers (too often). I think the kid is going to die when I have him make a youtube video with me. "Yeah your old man has youtube videos like MrBeast and Dream or whoever. No I don't have millions of followers. Let's make a video!"
Well in fairness, young kids are sponges for absorbing knowledge. That is why most of the best chess players in the world are in their 20s and have been quite good since they were small children. I just happened to sponge up the most useless knowledge for every day life.
