THE FINAL SOLUTION OF EQ2 AND WOW

in Everquest II

Honestly, this bickering between the games after a whole month of their release is just retarded. So heres a review that hopefully will end your angst over which is better.

WoW and EQ2 in a nutshell:
Which has a better fighting system?
Buy one of them.
I heard EQ2 has better graphics.
Really? I didnt see the goddam 60,000 screenshots of EQ2 posted in magazines, forums, and every single gaming site.
I heard WoW has PVP. EQ2 doesnt.
I didnt take notice.
I dont trust SOE with games, but Blizzard has a better reputation.
Even Squaresoft started out with sucky games, most of the early Rockstar games are crap. Just because they ruined one game (no names mentioned, SWG) doesnt mean the company is doomed for making sucking games unless SOE changed their name to 3D0.
Making your decision on whether to buy EQ2 or WoW is a simple solulution. Is EQ2 better than WoW, or is WoW better than EQ2?
Nobody cares
Just because jackass999 says "EQ2 is a grind" isnt going to change my mind on whether I buy it or not. And if you think people are going to read your post "WoW is teh suxx0r" your wrong. All it does is make you look like a nobody. Your not original with your post. So how do you decide on how to buy EQ2 or Wow? Simple.
1. Buy a paintball gun from Ebay. This costs around $20 bucks for a cheap one. You dont need an expensive one.
This is vital in your decision.
2. Go to your local WoW/ EQ2 dealer. DONT GO TO A GAMING STORE. Go to a place like Target or something spread out.
This isnt vital, but you'll see why you dont want to be seen by the salespeople/ other customers in the store.
3. Go to the gaming section and find EQ2 and WoW. If they are seperate, put them next to each other.
This is vital if you want to get an accurate answer.
4. Close your eyes
Once again, vital for an accurate answer.
5. Start shooting your paintball gun with your eyes closed in the direction of EQ2/ WoW.
Whichever has the most paint, DONT BUY. Imagine your playing a game of paintball, its always the skinny, 90 pound geek that gets shot the most. So whichever is hit more is obviously a suckier game, since the game attracts paintballs like a 90 pound geek. The pros never get shot.
Hope that helped.image

    Nice solution gargantroo.image but for me they wer all red image looks like they arent for meimageits my own point of view dont count it if you whant to buy some thing i hope it will bring you funimage

     

    i sayed it once and il say it again: NEVER ASK IF GAME IS GOOD OR BAD ON FORUNS YOU WONT GET A ANSWER YES OR NO ANY WAY YOU WILL JUST SEE PEOPELS OWN POINT OF VIEW. WHO THINK THIS GAME IS GOOD WONT TELL YOU THAT, BUT WHO THINKS THIS GAME IS S*** WILL YELL LIKE CRAZY.

    I can end it really fast.  They both suck.  Aside from slightly better graphics that dont compete with Korean games, they didnt progress far from the original conventions of the mmorpg.  I heard stories that they were "fine-tuning" mmorpgs, but the parts they were fine tuning is what turns people away from the game.  Simple fact is on a technological/gameplay stand point, they dont stand a chance against the real second generation mmo's.  Dark and Light, Wish, and Mourning.  Simply put, if any of those titles had the name SOE or blizzard backing them then they would kill Worlds of Warcraft and EQ2.

    cleffy make up your damn mind. first you say theres only 4 mmorpgs that you would play and WoW was the only one you would pay monthly for. now you are saying they both suck? make up your mind.

    liez, all liez, all squaresoft games are great, and all rockstar games are great, if you are refering to monstertuck madness (one of their first games), that game is awesome ::::31::

    Was all fun and games until you jumped on 3DO, and now i hafta killa ya, apologize in advance for that.

    Heroes of migth and magic is the oldest game installed on my comp, and probably the most used during the years.
