Does Everquest offer service in Japan? I might be in Japan some time next year, and I'm curious whether or not I'll be able to play from there. If so, does anyone else play from Japan, and how is the connection? Do you experience a lot of lag, etc.?
You can play from Japan, yea, keep in mind the servers (minus AB) are in USA, so connection latency will be the biggest thing to see
Should not be an issue. My guild have members playing from all over Asia and their latency during normal gameplay and raiding are fine
Once upon a time, it was offered under the name "EverQuest Japanese Edition". Rating objects have been removed so that even children(?) Can play. (There were no spear-stabbed heads or bonfire-Roast dwarven fillets.) Due to various reasons, GoD was not provided, and the applicant moved to the Fennin Ro server. Therefore, it is possible to access the USA server from Japan.
How many stories were you telling in one? The only time "the applicant" was mentioned at the end, were you talking about one before?
Not sure if any of them play on Darkpaw servers, but there are quite a few Japanese EverQuest players that use Twitter. I'm assuming they mostly play P99, but they might still be able to answer your questions. I see them using the following hashtags: #everquest and #project1999 most commonly #エバークエスト and #エバクエ on occasion If you have a Twitter account, you could maybe try tweeting at them.
