Everquest 2

Post by Nickface »

Well, I'm downloading the demo to try. Emphasis on downloading. The "time left" on it is over 11 hours. My friend who is into this wants me to give it a spin (though it'll be a cold day in hell before I pay a monthly fee to play a game I paid $50 for).

Anyone capible of giving me a preliminary review? How does it stack up with World of Warcraft, the other one I was interested in trying.

Everquest 2 is the poo.

Seriously, it it is faaabulous. I was playing for about a month, like an hour or so a day, and I got too like level 10. Unless you have far too much patience and free time, then it's a bad choice.

Madness...

I always remember a great quote from a friend of mine about everquest (and its ilk) "I dont want to spend hours building up a character just to get killed by a rat that happens to have more mana than me".

Made me laugh anyway

You have fun killing rats. Meanwhile I'll be stopping street crime, Joose will be killing orcs, and the EVE crew will be destroying millions of credits worth of spaceships

Well today was the end of my weekly trial, and it was ok. I got used to doing everything and soforth, but I still can't see the justification for paying a monthly fee for it, especially when guild wars is coming out and is a lot better, IMO.
