At a party, EQ2 is like the whole place where all the adults are talking, and having fun. WoW is the room where all the kids go play so they aren''t underfoot.

I would love to play it with the population it had during it's first 2years. I was there every night. Then when eq2 came out I went back and forth. It was my first MMO too. I got hooked on it when I was in beta 2 and 3, and had a hard time waiti…

An addiction does not have to be physical. An artificial environment can do this. Even an obsessive thought can causea compulsion that can ruin someone's world. I didn't get hooked on WoW for a bunch of reasons. But I was heavily into EQOA for …

Well it might not be your favorite, but with almost 9 million active subs, it should surpass WoW in subs by year's end. Since so many of the WoW accounts are farmers, it probably has already.

I would say that there are things to consider beforehand. It is rather easy to get into. So if your friend likes a game that starts easy and remains simplistic for some time after with a fairly easy learning curve, it would probably be ok. B…

2.4 ghz, 2 gb ram, 128mb vid, on a 6 year old motherboard I don't have nearly the specs you do and mine looks and plays great. All over the internet there are pages on what to put your setting at. There are a few things you can turn off that mak…

I disagree with the post about the abilities being arbitrary. If you have ever raided in more than one type of situation, you would find them useful. It is less arcade-ish than other games, and more complicated. It tends to keep away some people …

Even though it doesn't say it, ye got to be really slow not to be able to figure out that this game is geared toward kids. It's really funny when WoW people come here and rip on it (mostly because it is SOE), calling it easy, and whatever else. Wo…

I am not playing right now (returning in DEC). But I had RPed my characters on Permafrost, quite a bit. But because it is not a specified RP server, I would always announce it beforehand in groups. Often others would get into it too after seeing …

Originally posted by BlackWatch If you don't enjoy WoW anymore... then take a break. Walk away for a while. When you come back, the game will have changed and new features/functions will be added. I've done this several times. I've even step…

I think it's a good point to make that people have different opinions. If you find it enjoyable and still play, then it's good for you. If it's really 'all that' for you, then just play and enjoy it for as long as its around. Some, but not all …

Ask yourself if you just want to grind all the time, or take part in some quests.

It is obviously affecting his life somehow. Getting that upset over a game is strange, but he must face the problem head on. If not, he could be doomed. He needs to resub and see all the changes in the game and make an educated opinion, instead o…

When you get the all in one pack thing, you are paying for the expansion, not the rest. Think about it. If each were included in the price, then it would be a lot higher. I like the fact that each expansion retail box is all inclusive. It is att…

Hate is a strong word to use against anyone or anything. I don't hate WoW. It is just not for me. I am put off by the relative spoken age of the community. The quest progression seems to be a bit choppy. Sometimes there are a lot of quest for a…

Not really kiddish, but it is sort of early teen. However, anyone can act like a kid. It was created for a mainstream audience with the options and features they felt would at least be somewhat fancy to both newcomers and hardcore people. This ha…

I had no problem quitting WoW. I felt I was degressing to the likes of smurfdom or saturday morning cartoons, when I played it. But with the point of the post: People are predisposed to the addiction before they even set foot in a college. Any…
