There are many online gamers that began their illustrious online gaming addiction through the phenomenon known as Everquest. Coming soon the story of this great classic game will be told in an upcoming documentary known as Evercracked. The documentary will interview many of the industry greats that helped create and build onto Everquest over the years, including one name that has been noticeably absent from gaming news as of late in one Brad "Aradune Mithara" McQuaid. A trailer for the upcoming documentary can be viewed here.

Brad looked pretty tired in that clip.

I don't think he getting enough sun.

I still miss reading his posts and I wish that the TTH crew could score an interview with him.

This should be neat, its always fun to watch the "behind-the-scenes" of game creations and their birth!

Sad really, Vanguard had so much potential and I was a tester for the game. It was one of the most beautiful games I have ever played and the weather effects and cloud patterns, etc. were simply amazing. So much potential but seemed as though Brad was dead set on creating a newer EQ as opposed to the original ideas of Vanguard. The game changed so much from beta to release in such a drastic measure more so than any other game I have been a part of.

They'll be showing this at Fan Faire this year. Only 2 weeks away. Can't wait.

Woot!

So has this video been released yet. I'm kinda eager to watch it...I enjoy watching behind the scenes and history of MMO creation.

We just watched the documentary about an hour ago. It was awesome.

At this point, what happens with it next is up in the air as far as I know. I talked to Jase Hall after the showing and asked him about it coming out on DVD, etc.

He said he'd like to get it broadcast on TV. They really wanted to show the impact the game has had on not only the gaming world, but the people that play and make the game.

It was awesome

Great, well hopefully it'll get released or leaked to the net soon!

Hopefully it does NOT get leaked! LOL!

Thanks Dalmarus for thinking its awesome, the fans and players of EQ were always on our minds as we were putting this together, and it meant a lot to have you guys be the first to watch it and give feedback on it at Fan Faire. Our goal is currently to get it on TV, so stay tuned to SOE's sites, and our own JaceHall.tv and HDfilms.com for info as it comes out.

you can also follow Jace on Twitter.com/jacehall and myself Twitter.com/nicaragon as we like to leak some stuff some times on it
