EverQuest with John Krikorian - Part 3

John Krikorian (of the Trek Profiles podcast) is back with more EverQuest talk. We talk about how the community around a game is what makes it last, the Y2K and 2038 problems and discuss the fact that EverQuest is a 20-year-old game, running 20-year-old code on new hardware.

We sat with John Krikorian (of the Trek Profiles podcast) to talk about EverQuest, and how the communities which come up around MMOs are really what make or break them (John has a wonderful line about "it's about more than the game"). We also talk about how EverQuest is a 20-year-old game, running 20-year-old code. We touch on both the Y2K and 2038 problems, top tips for folks who are new to the game, and some amazing stories from both John and Squidge about the games that they love to play.

This episode is so chocked full of stuff, that I would recommend you check out the full show notes for this episode, as we've added a whole bunch of extra information there. And if you haven't played the game yet, you really should. It's out for practically all formats.

What is Arrggh! A Video Game Podcast from The Waffling Taylors?

A fun and silly discussion about video games (both retro and contemporary), video game movies, and pretty much anything related to video games. It is hosted by brothers Jay and Squidge (who may or may not be a cartoon wolf), and featuring the best guests around - including some real video game development legends.
Whether it's an in-depth discussion about video games, films surrounding video games, or light-hearted nonsense and tangents, this may be the pod for you.
