F2P Player Impressed with EQ2 & Subscribes!

I'm a video game gamer from back in the 80's but the MMO PC games somehow alluded me until last summer. I have seen the WoW and EQ commercials but for whatever reason just ignored them back in the day. Summer of '09, I got a WoW trial which I played for a few days until I somehow saw an ad for Perfect World International F2P game and was hoooked. Sadly it is a cash cow and charges insane amounts for items that a player actually needs to accomplish goals and even move up in level so I stopped playing.
I gave Runes of Magic a try which I actually liked more than PWI until last night...I had an urge to get a EQ 2 trial because something about it stuck with me and I wanted to give it a try. I was glad I did!! I created a few characters on the trial and leveled them each to level 4. Today, I found out about the Complete Collection that gives loads of bonus stuff including 60 days of free gameplay and a Free Bear Pet/Mount. I rushed to my local Best Buy and bought it!
I'm impressed by EQ2, it's beautiful compared to some of the F2P MMO games I have played and none of them had speech in it before. There are TONS of classes which is very nice since some of the F2P only had several classes. I'm def overwhelmed by the sheer size of this game and what you can do. I don't have hrs each day to devote to EQ2 but have a real life to attend to but I def plan on scheduling an hour or so each day and time on the weekend too.
I'm excited about subscribing to EQ2 and it's a shame I didn't do it sooner. I'm surprised that it has that Station shop thing which reminds me of the F2P cash shops but it's not a big deal to me.
I will be on the Everfrost server (I think) and hopefully I will find a Guild that welcomes total newbies, is respectful and has older players in it like me (I'm 43 years young).
