Boring? We must not be playing the same game. There is a huge variety of mobs and environments if you are into adventuring. If you like quests, it is now truly everQUEST, but the quests are nicely intergrated into adventure play. If you want to …
I do think 4 is a problem. I usually play one main, and just one or two alts, but space is so limited I have all slots filled on two accounts with banker characters. The crafting and adventuring are both intense and I love it, but space is ridicul…
Extremely!
I thought EQ Live was pretty "addicting" for a very long time, but EQ2 blows EQLive out of the water. The graphics, content, and immersion factors really put this game in a different league than any I've played before. Naturally onl…
It is a great game and worth the price and the monthly fees. If you decide to buy it, just be careful to pick a server with a lighter load. The only problem is server and zone crashes due to very high population load. I can't complain about any g…
1. I have found it extremely easy to find a group if you want one, and to solo if you don't. I know this is true for priests and fighters, but I haven't heard anyone complaining about finding groups in the Mage or Scout class either. Honestly the…
Very nice review Aldreth! From what I have seen thus far you are dead on. Good Job!
My system is not quite as good as yours, but I have experienced very little lag, and most of the lag I have experienced has been in certain zones. I wonder if …
I am amazed at how people can look at the same information and come up with totally opposite impressions.
1. Models - I think most are really great. I personally don't like the Barbarian females, they just don't look like women to me (I was a B…

Forced grouping - You don't group, you DON'T advance, simple as that
Solo play is seriously gimped - very few solo encounters, xp on them is so low that it will take 100's of kills to advanc…
For sure you won't be disappointed on content! There is more stuff to do in EQ2 than can even imagine. Pretty interesting quests on every corner, and a wide variety of mobs in each of the zones I saw on my brief tour. Even if you get bored easily…
Coldmeat,
I just don't understand. If you hate the game so much why are you beta testing (assuming you are) and why hang out on this forum? There is nothing wrong with CONSTRUCTIVE critiques, but you seem to enjoy being sarcastic and negative in…
I could not disagree more hauj0bb. It is Very different from EQLive. Other than the names of the zones and the races they have changed just about everything in one way or another. There are some similarities, but LOTS of folks I saw were soloing …
You may be right about it only effecting certain zones. Since this was my first look at the game, he was showing me around all the Freeport zones and the zones close by. I did not get an extensive look at the world, only about 10 zones in that are…
I was referring to server lag. The graphics card on the computer was one of the top ones NVidia makes with 256 on board memory. His computer is fairly fast (2.4) and he has 2 G of RAM. I know they have been doing server load testing, so it is pos…
After all the hype and anticipation for EQ2 I was almost afraid to see the actual game. I say ALMOST because when a friend got into beta I just couldn't resist checking it out. As I drove over I feared I would be disappointed because few games can…
I don't have Paint Shop, how can I create a postable picture? I know these are .ccf files and I have tried several programs to open them, but have had no success. Assistance requested please.

I played EQ1 for 4 years and the things I enjoyed most were:
- The sense of newness and discovery
- The small group game play.
- Spending time with family and friends online doing whatever we wanted to that night.
- Maxing my levels and havi…
