EverQuesting: Can Daybreak make it through 2019?

KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - Those who’ve been long-time followers of Massively OP’s long-running EverQuesting column might have noticed a distinct lack of new year hopes and predictions articles for the EverQuest franchise along with their end-of year accounting pieces. That’s because there haven’t been any for a couple of years. The last year I did them — 2016 — was the year we lost EverQuest Next and got hit with the announcement for Landmark’s death. Daybreak also failed in communication and community interaction front. The optimism I had when 2016 started was pretty battered by the year’s end, and then 2017 and 2018 just beat the tar out of it. Who really wants to delve into negatives at the start of a year?

KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - But who knows when I will have the chance again. Despite the loyal fanbases of EverQuest and EverQuest II and even the recent offering of lifetime All-Access memberships, I feel no assurance that the studio won’t implode this year. How could I? There have been too many closures, too many questionable moves, and too many layoffs to think otherwise; confidence in even the most hopeful fans has been seriously eroded.

KONTAK PERKASA FUTURES - However, I don’t feel that implosion is a sure thing either. It could go either way: No outcome is a forgone conclusion. This is a brand-new year, and no matter matter how Daybreak has messed up in the past, the EQ/EQII ship can be righted because there are still many players who love the games. Now we just need the developer to show it loves the games, too. Here are a few ways that can happen.
