my question is- is this game as great as i hope it will be? is it worth me getting a new vid card, ram etc? i have a pretty low end pc right now (AMD 2400, 512mb RaM, FX5200[yeah i know it suck]) id go out and buy this stuff right now but im a bit on the broke side. im sure ill be able to get anough for what i need, but is this game worth it? is it a game that you see yourself playing for a long time?
Lo there do I see my father.. Lo there do i see my brothers and my sisters... Lo there do i see the line of my people back to the beginning.... Lo they do call to me, they bid me take place among them in the Halls of Valhalla, where the brave may live forever....
Pennywise. I myself have been a long time AC fan and prior to that a UO fan. I always ranted about EQ and always stood tall for AC vs EQ. However, after reading a lot over at http://eq2players.station.sony.com/ and then talking to a lot of knowledgable people over at http://www.eqii.com/
All I can say is I am amazed at how EQ2 will not be just another sequel like they even tried to do with AC2. As for someone that never stood next to EQ for anything. I think my words would be based on information and not a diehard fan to the EQ world.
The way I see it is if you love the genre of RPG I think you will fall inlove with EQ2.
I hear a lot of people say EQ was addicting as crack. However to me it wasn't, but I think EQ2 for me will be and I bet to the EQ crack addicts it will be just pure uncut crack to them

Yep if you look at my specs I am only using a AMD XP 1700+, GF FX 5700 Ultra 128MB vid and 1gig of DDR2. That screen there doesn't even give the character creation any credit. It looks sooo much better with the animation. I am just trying to imagine what the animation looks like with them other screens on here. I just KNOW they are seeing better than what they are showing us
Yeah, RyL really impressed me with it's graphics, but I also agree that screenshots probably don't do any game justice, I'll just have to find some way to try before I buy! One thing I'd like to ask though, how is community involvement, might be a little early to ask, but how is SOE treating the EQ2 test community so far? Do they seem to be listening and handling bugs and things like that?
I am officially unimpressed. I thought with the way they were touting their graphics as being the main attraction for this game I was expecting to see better screens. Those suck in my opinion I think SWG looked better. I for the life of me cant see why the requirements are so high with the graphics looking the way they do.
Well Im glad I didnt tell anybody to run out and get a new computer for this.

Lol these screens were in Jpeg format, and the reselution looked like shit. Go looke at some on the fansites. You will see some beta ones that look alot better.
