Ok so I played it, played through Archet (whatever it's called) town starter quests. Here are my thoughts. * Graphics - The outdoor environments are very well done. The world is very nice, the place looks geographically real and has so man…

I am not a fan of WoW, I think the graphics are sickening and the maturity of the playerbase...let's not start. But the fact remains that Warcraft as a franchise has done very well! Starcraft anf Diablo...you get the picture. I think the only ga…

I would normally recommend EQ2, in fact I would say content wise it's one of the best all around western MMO's available. BUT... The winds are shifting...I think with the type of game an MMO is, and how horribly bad the end game is becoming in E…

They will probably release Velious as their next expansion. The expansion schedule is 1 a year, with beta around August and release around September. Everquest has 13 or 14 expansions and it's way past it's shelf life, EQ2 has many more years to g…

Everquest II is still going strong. It's probably more popular today than at it's launch. However EQ2 is an old game and is suffering from a new influx of gamers who are wondering why it doesn't have some of the things brand new MMO's do. All in…

At the end of the day what is really sad here is that thousands if not millions of people feel they need to cheat to play the game. Either MMO games are seriously flawed in that they create almost a need to be power leveled or need large infusion…

It's so sad, "Vanguard would have...." is phrase that many MMO players have heard. Sadly the development team could have used better leadership and then perhaps it would have made it. What is even more sad, is that developers are looking at the …

Everquest series is a true MMORPG. It was built and designed as a graphical MUD (old text based MMO) specifically the DikuMUDS. Now if your looking to play a no limit true roleplaying game, that is a modern/classic MMO hybred I recommend Everques…

Simple solution: Make a game that 1 part MMORPG and 1 part offline single player game. Classic Everquest style MMORPG with a instanced single player campaign that spans the level ranges. All gear obtain would be top solo gear, middle of the …

I hate to say this but Everquest died the day Brad and the original visionaries left the game. Smed and SOE only really care about one game at a time. Currently that game is called The Agency. While EQ had reached it's peak of subscribers SOE div…
-
Not to turn this into a "bash SOE" thread, but Smed and those who make the decisions for Everquest have failed the game. The game has been developed in a direction it was not originally intended to go. If WoW has shown anything it is that the "c…

Hey guys, so im looking for something new, ive been playing WOW for about 2 years, LOTRO for about 3 months and before that i played DaOC for around a year. Basicly WOW has tired me out, the game doesnt have what it takes to keep me interested…

This is a topic I am very passionate about. In fact it eventually caused me to follow Vanguard as I saw SOE didn't want to give us a classic server. And Vanguard failed miserably due to it being unfinished by launch and high graphical requirements…

If you started Everquest 1 before Luclin expansion you will probably be wanting the glory days. Basically the game was balanced, not too much plat sales happening, travel was hard, people grouped regularly, life was good. Everquest is that tota…

Coming from an EQ1 background, I saw a healthy economy be ruined by RMT, however I would also say the game's expansion a week (or so it seemed) policy also helped to inflate things. So when I heard SOE was going to make servers that sold plat, I w…

I think the funnest thing about Everquest II is what makes Everquest fun, and that is grouping, crawling a dungeon or exploring a region together. It's not being overly structured and just wading in the content and having a blast. Unfortunately d…

Originally posted by qombi I don't think you understand what I am saying. At the level we was it was basically COMPLETELY healed to full almost instant. Do you not see anything wrong with that? That is cheesy. My question is does that cheesy mech…

Perpetual has no gone out of business, SOE had absolutely nothing to do with God's and hero's being put on hold. This was posted on Star Trek Gaming Website Gods and Heroes, Perpetual's other title has been cancelled; Loyal and faithful …
