I had the chance to participate in a roundtable interview yesterday with SOE President John Smedley, Assistant Lead Designer Alan VanCouvering and Associate Producer Harvey Burgess. We covered a wide variety of topics, ranging from the history of EverQuest to the game's community. The team also fielded a series of questions on the progression servers, and Smedley gave us some hints on what we can expect to see in EverQuest Next.
