EverQuest Lore: The Shadows of Luclin
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 окт 2024
- Join me for a breakdown of the history and lore behind the Shadows of Luclin expansion for EverQuest.
Much of my research was done at loreofnorrath....
as well as everquest.alla... and various old forum and reddit posts.
I also used the EverQuest tabletop RPG books as a source.

I wanted to give you a huge thank you for doing these documentary-style videos! EQ has a special place in my heart.
How you managed to make this more interesting than they did is CRAZY!
That's a huge compliment, thanks!
This was amazing, please keep doing each expansion I would watch them all!
more lore! and thank you for sharing the information. quite a few things i never knew about the beginning of this place we call luclin!
The lore with the visuals were perfect. Keep it up
Please keep this lore series up, this is awesome. Thanks.
OMG, this is absolutely brilliant! Thank you so much! I also loved Luclin back in the day, but had no idea what was going on-you’ve finally explained it 23 years later! I’ve come back to the game for Teek, and plan on experiencing all the expansions. I hope you’re planning on making videos for each of them. 😄
This was awesome! Luclin is easily my favorite EQ expansion and it's great to see a story breakdown. Thanks for the great work!
Wake up babe, a new EQ classic expansion lore vid just dropped
Honestly props on the pronunciations in here! People will probably complain no matter what but this video took guts
I love the background music! Really adds the ambiance and emotion to the video! Great storytelling.
I was there on the day Luclin was discovered. There was a large GM event/quest surrounding the release and the group I was in completed it and discovered the first spire. We each received the title “of the Nexus” and a clicky item that was an instant port to the Nexus. That was one of the most helpful clickies before the PoK stones!
That was seriously awesome. One of the things I really love about EverQuest is that it has awesome, deep, and fleshed out Lore, and *NOT* a "current story" that the players play through. This aspect of FF14 and most recently, Throne and Liberty, really does not engage or interest me. I dislike playing through a story of what is happening in the game world currently, and would rather be present in a largely uneventful present, but with lots and lots of lore to explore. This video was really well done, from the script and the footage, to the different sections talking about all the different factions, their origins, their motivations, and histories. I've been playing EQ (off and on) for the better part of 25 years and I never knew almost any of this. Definitely want more videos like this! Well done!
Really well put and I concur. Like this approach to lore and storytelling in MMOs much more than "you're the hero that is making history now" but everyone around you is that hero as well.
Great timing with Luclin releasing this week on Teek.
That definitely played a roll in the release date!
perfect timing! We go to the moon on Thursday
Great Video. While I do know most of this, it's great seeing it again. I also learned a few new things.
Great video, I hope you keep it up. I shared you to my guild as well. Hello from Teek!
Thanks for sharing!
this is really well made
Good stuff! I personally liked Shadows of Luclin, just not as much as Velious and Kunark, but a lot more than Planes of Power.
Enjoying these, keep it up!
Just started playing on Live again after rage quitting during GoD. I'm having a great time, but I'm just revisiting nostalgic stuff. I'm really just planning on going and getting the items I wanted to have back in the day. Like the "top tier" monk equipment before SoL, before VL and SS, even. Fungi Tunic, Flayed Barbarian Leggings, Epic, Shackle of Tynn.. etc, etc.
I checked yesterday and Hadden was up, and that was a permacamped spot for years. I was only lvl 12, and he was 28 so I didn't engage. I'm almost 20 now and I'm going back tonight to get that earring lol!
Taking high level characters from the live server and going back to mess around with old content for nostalgia reasons is one of my favorite things to do!
This was my first expansion. I was prob level 35 when it came out , Loved it
How best to get in touch to chat about lore especially the main "story" of Everquest classic and the various expansions.
I have a discord I use for a podcast I used to do, it has a section for EQ chat. I might open it up and link it in the video description. Stay tuned for that.
@@Joshthegamer8600I have two main topics 1. What is the main story of each expansion, how is that story told using the official party and significant quests? 2. What is the "story" of each zone, how would a traditional DnD party interact with the zone to resolve the story or conflict in a "permanent" way, or how does it play out if the players take no action. IE what if the narrative didn't have to support the mmorpg game type?
The moon seen from Norrath is Drinal and not Luclin. Luclin is in shadows. Awesome lore vid!
Yes, I know that is the case currently in game, at least in SoL era, but what I found leads me to believe that at the time of the Combine empire Luclin was visable.
@@Joshthegamer8600 Oh I love this. I also wonder if maybe they were aiming for Drinal with their teleportation magics. We know it wasn't precise as they teleported in to a casm within Luclin. EQ lore is genuinely great.
Cataclysm - Vash'jir
Katta clysm - Vashir. I thought cats didn't like water.
I keep getting distracted by the most canadian "out" of all time.
I get that a lot lol
