Everquest 2 is fun on all levels [Posted on 2006-07-26] I have played Everquest 2 since it's release and I just have to say, you must play it to believe it. The graphics and sound effects/music are just amazing. I invested in a high-end graphics card around for around $400.00 and have made every penny in enjoyment from this game out of that video card. You can adjust the graphics from low to extreme, depending on your video card, and usually you find a good balance between great graphics and fast game play. The graphics and worlds must be seen to be believed.
The development team is constantly changing the game up to keep the game evolving. The customizations you can make on your character are vast, as are the variety of classes you can play. Sony has made changes to make tradeskilling more basic and less confusing for some, so when you get tired from adventuring you can go make yourself or your friends some items such as food/drinks or armor/weapons.
The game is only as time consuming as you want to make it. Even if you play for only 5-10 hours a week you can still have enjoyment and advance your character at a good rate. They have released numerous expansions and dungeons that make the game continuously fun to explore and advance in.
I have played 2 other MMORPG's and this has blown them both away. The crowd is a mature, mid 20's type of players with very rare instances of immature players scattered among the zones (few compared to the other MMORPG's I've played), which is a nice change.
If your computer is capable of playing Everquest 2, I would definitely recommend getting the game and trying it for at least a month.
EQ2 - Has changed and is Solo/casual friendly [Posted on 2006-10-19] EQ2 has undergone some major changes. If you like to solo or are a casual player this is the game for you. You can get to level 70 with any class solo. The developers have put in new solo quest lines that are really fun to play. The new broker system makes selling easy.
Frankly it was not that good when it came out but the changes have made for me the best MMO - I have tried WoW and hated it -- EQ1 gets old unless you are into raiding.
I think anyone looking for an MMO should definitely get this game -- especially if you want to solo or are a casual player.
Very slow [Posted on 2006-11-04] The grafics are really good but the game is a little bit slow how the move and how the game goes, I really didn't like the game, you spect more of the game but you get dissapointed when you play it.
everquest **** [Posted on 2007-01-04] the had the game in stock and it was delivered very quickly..love the game...very happy
Downloading the update forever & cant play during. [Posted on 2007-01-07] I pay for the game online... do the download, sign up for the account, sign up for the monthly billing.... that was 2 1/2 weeks ago. Still haven't gotten to play the game yet or even make a character. Why? because I have about a month or more left of downloading the 'update' to go yet. I have about 245.65 hours left (or more)of downloading to do (about a month or so left?!) before I can even see what the game is like, looks like or even see what a character is like. What a waste of money (mostly the monthly billing I have to pay for). I'm tired of staying online to do endless downloading of an update and not getting to do anything else but watch the clock tick slowly downward (245 - 330 hours still left??!!). Oh and yes, I have a great computer.
