EverQuest
EverQuest is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) released in 1999, pioneering the genre of persistent virtual worlds where thousands of players simultaneously explore, fight monsters, and complete quests.
The game became notorious for its addictive qualities, earning nicknames like "EverCrack." Its influence shaped later MMORPGs including World of Warcraft: I lost a year of my life to EverQuest.
