    eq2
I am biased because I have spend years playing EQ1, but even though I have played EQ2 just for a few hours so far, I do like it better than FFXI. It's all about personal preference really. If you are perfectly happy with FFXI, then there is no reason to look for entertainment elsewhere. If you are kinda bored in FFXI and are just logging in because of the friends you have made over time, then it may just be time to have a look at other MMOs.
 
I was supposed to get my copy today. The FedEx people were even here! But no one was home to sign for the package! :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:
So now I have to wait till Wednesday to play :x Yeah... my life is horrible :wink:
 
My roomate is testing WoW, infact he's playing at this very moment. It's not my style of game. But I can see how if your a person you has played the Warcraft series and like that Blizzard style of animation, then id say the game would be right up your alley. The graphics aren't stellar but they aren't horrendous either. I still think FFXI looks way better, but I have seen him play Warcraft III before, and the game relates to that world, and considering the world, they did a god job.

He seems to be enjoying it. I think id be happier on FFXI. From what I've seen they have a really cool death system. When you die you become a spirit, and can essentialy roam anywhere you want to in the world, because your pretty much a ghost. You can do anything though, your dead, but it does provide an interesting view of that world. Though if you don't get back to your corpse within a certain amount of time the clothing/weapons you were wearing will take a huge durability decrease and getting them repaired is costly, though if you make it back to your corpse within the time (which is really easy to do) then you only take a minor durability loss to your items.

It's not my kinda mmo, but I won't say its horrible. It has it's own style. I just dont really like it.
 
hmmm, i might have to change or quit online rpg's, because of my time zone in Australia, when im on it's mostly EU/JA players, that tell me Sorry No English :(
 
I just installed this and starting playing this yesterday and....

IT IS WAY AWESOME!!!!

Well I guess I might have to log onto FFXI for the last time and have a big mule and main giveaway....or would that hurt the economy?

Hmm...

Should I just retain everything or just give it all away?

Edited to post my EQ2 server:

Unrest
 
Well I was also an old time EQ player. First of all I need to upgrade my CPU big time... There has been a large debate of which the people I used to play in EQ is going. Also a big and sometimes flaming debate on which is better. I kind of shifted to WoW, although half of my old EQ members are going for EQ2.

Every new MMORPG you play gives the "it is awsome" feeling. The question remains if you want to stay more than your tiral period. The server names gives me memories back the time when I was playing EQ1 haha. Should I ever going to play EQ2, my server probably will be Unrest. Hope there will be a warm welcome message stating "Hag to zone!"
 
Its all good!

I am a MMORPG WHORE!!

So I think this EQ2 has impressed me more and more but I am a little biased.

So should I log onto FFXI one last time and have a big give-away or just let it die?

I have some decent equip for a 50THF or a 28 NIN or some other jobs also


Hmm...what to do what to do? Maybe I'll start a poll.

Ok then,

I'm glad it rocks. Maybe a bunch of people will leave. Unfortunately we'll lose some friends in the process, but it'll thin the pack a bit. That could be interesting.

I just started playing EQ2 last night. So far so good. My character is Gelgamesh on the Lucan DLere server. I haven't given up on FFXI though. I plan on paying both subscription fees at least for a while.

I don't need cat toys in that region. I am already there enough.
:lol:
 
So far EQ2 is awesome. The graphics are great, you get enough quests to give you a good majority of the experience you need to level, and people are very helpful with the quests as well. Unlike how it seems to be in FFXI these days, the group will actually help EVERYONE complete their mission, even if they dont need to do it themselves, or already completed it. Its great.
I'm Beiro (I'm original!) on the Guk server. Guk is just fun to say. :D
 
I played EQ myself, and as much as I miss playing a Druid, I don't think I could leave FFXI. I tried City of Heroes for a while, loved the character creation process, but got bored with it before my 30 day free trial was over. I've developed an emotional attachment to Yomi, and I love my friends and LS way too much to leave them for good.

Enjoy EQ2, those of you who are moving on, maybe I'll have a level 75 job by the time you defect back to FFXI <3
