<P>hey there red,</P> <P>so y r u leaving WoW? give me/us the skinny.:smileywink: and to answer ur question...we still own EQ2!</P>

[Red Sox Suck]

<DIV>well Pnaxx here is my theory on WoW.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I have been playing bout a month now more or less. I have currently a 29 warlock. The class is cool, and I play on a PvE server so I dont have to worry about getting ganked by a 12 year old rouge or something.  The way PvP works on normal servers is you have to attack an alliance/horde depending what you are and then you are PvP enabeled for a brief time, something like 10 minutes.  The PvP can be very fun sometimes but I still like PvE more.  It's definately easier to level like I said, I'm lvl 28 already in less then a month, lets see u try to do that in eq2 lol.  The graphics are nice looking, they are cartoonish but they are still very good.  The system requirements are soo much less and it doesnt take up 7 gigs on my hard drive like EQ2 does so the game play is good, I barely go LD and lag.  The world is alot bigger then EQ2 also.  One thing I am a big fan of is all the major dungeons are instances.  So you go in with your group and everything is up.  That is definatly a plus in my eyes. However, EQ2 just has more depth imo.  The storyline is better and I feel better when I accomplish something.  For example when I did ghoulbane I actually felt good cause it was such a long [expletive ninja'd by Faarbot] process and it was worth it.  With WoW its really quite easy and nothing so far to this point has given me any trouble.  The graphics in EQ2 are without a doubt alot better.  The marketplace blows in WoW, Eq2 has  a great one. In WoW you go these auctions (kinda like an ebay thing) and the one near me it takes a good 5-8 min just to get too. very annoying.  Now this is just a theory of mine I have no evidence to back it up, but I feel that the EQ2 crowd is generally a little older.  WoW alot of younger kids play like 12+.  Something about playing with a 12 year old tank in my group just doen't hit me right.  I know these games are fun but you also need some intelligence to play it correctly.  Hence I believe EQ2 has that advanatge. and last but not least is your own character.  In WoW you see hundreds of characters that look exactly like you.  In EQ2 your character is unique and noone else looks exactly the same.  I like that alot.  Well thats all I got for now.  Hope this wasn't boring to read.  I'm goin on vaction this week for my b-day but when I come back I shall return to Qeynos harbor where I should have a huge amount of vitality lol.  Later guys</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Noren</DIV> <DIV>Gnome Berserker</DIV> <DIV>AB Server</DIV>
