Just Curious about Amount of people
 

Hello everyone,

I am interested in joining and was just curious just how many people play or is it just kinda empty and ghost town-like. I was a huge EQ1 player for years and really want the experience back. If anyone could help me out and let me know how it is from a first person point of view it would be great

depends on a server
you can see people count here
http://www.eqemulator.org/index.php?pageid=serverlist

note however that with exception to Project99, most other servers allow multy-boxing (1 players controlling 1-6 characters at once)

Also note that if you pick a custom server to play on, generally the list of custom zones is considerably less than the full list of zones available on Live EQ. You may still have access to the non-custom zones (depending on the server), but in most cases your best bet is to play in the custom zones. This means that even though the populations are smaller, it isn't quite as empty as it may seem just based on total server population.
