lol wow.. I play both. EQ2 gives you 100000x things more to do then wow. Almost endless dungeons. With all the things wow has done; Faster lvling etc..its very shallow now. You spend more time with nothing to do. Raids are extremely easy and get boring fast....I luv wow; but EQ2 is full of pretty much endless things to do. Plus they have a mentor system that allows you to play at any lvl...You never have to worry about falling behind. (until endgame). The graphics r insane in Eq2; depends on pc
I hate how it looks I might complain over Eq2 a lot but I don't like how it looks I like it more pulished and not so sharp if you know what I mean I'll give you this video for an example.

This looks ridiculous. There's no movement during bosses. You just stand there casting while the boss fights your tank. To it basically comes down to gear and the classes you have in your raid.
@Yooree If you what you say WoW is EXACTLY the same....All people care about is what your GS and class is for raids and for attack you stay there and click the same spells over and over and over again.Oh,and if you're going to say "the fun comes when you get to 80" you're wrong I got to 80 and geared and it's completely boring also.
EQ2 Graphics scale to ones computer. It looks close to any current mmorpg if you have the right pc. The big draw on eq2 though is the mature friendly community.
Nice vid, but God I wish ppl could stick to instrumental music for raid vids... trying to concentrate on what's going on and having some singer yell in my ears is not inspiring.
FYI: my taste in music is just that and I fully understand if some ppl get pumped up by throat gargling distortions.
Uh. Guys. This video is 2 1/2 years old, so of course the game is going to run and look better if you play it today. Technology back then didn't exist that runs the game like you are used to playing it today.
I'm gonna upload a video of this game on highest settings on my sick new computer, coming out in a few weeks (computers not quite here yet, probably another week and a half) save my name if you're interested :)
I played the EQ2 trial sometime during the summer and the game looks WAY better than this, for those of you that are judging the first 5 seconds of the game footage. :) I was bored to tears in WoW, Aion is full of idiots, and FFXI obiously hates its players (play the game and you'll know what I mean). Thinking about picking this up.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Definitely not EQ2 or WoW. Seriously, these games are nearly 5 years old and they're played out.
Play something new and modern. Warhammer Online is great for people interested in PvP. And before anyone comments before actually getting deep into Warhammer. Yes, the PvP is better than PvP in EQ2 or WoW. There is no competition.
DDO is great if you're into lore and story. Yes, I said it. Deal with it.
Eq2 and WoW are old but they are still in my opinion the best MMO's out there and still have the most subscribers than any of the newer ones, and no they are not definately played out atleast Eq2 isnt they get new expansions that are amazing quite frequently
eq2, best mmo, period. They have things that wow fans are crying the devs to put in their game. I actually lost my wow to a hacker, best thing that happened to me. I'm only on the eq2 trial and this game has blown me away.
To answer your question, yes. A few days before. And also, no I do not get addicted to games that easily. My schedule really can't afford for me to do so. But what I was getting at: Does it allow you to stop without jeopardizing ruining guild experiences as well as other things. (Raids, groups, ect.) Thanks.
Far from truth. Ultima Online is the mother of them all.. and it still has some features, no one has ever come near.. i still play UO occasionaly, but my second favourite MMO is EQ2.
For your other question, yes EQ2 did come out before WoW, but in the same year (which if probably reason it's not so popular.. all the kids are in wow.. but thank god for that, eq2 have awsome community comparing to wow)
I played Eq in the early days. It was such an amazing game. I eventually quit. I found WoW once it first came out and...it was extremly drawn out and just got very boring. Haveing a few 80's in that game just proves you dont have a life. But in EQ2, it seems that this game gives you more space to just play it as...well a game. I don't want to look for another 6 months of just video game stuff. I know this sounds completly retarded but does this game give you space to have a social life?
Can someone recommend me what class to start off with? I didn't buy this game yet, should i get it with the expansion now or wait til i level up some?
The expansions aren't required for a beginner but almost without exception the newer areas for beginners are easier, with quicker quests and better rewards. As the game has steadily been dumbed down for easier consumption. So the newest expack with a newbie town RoK would help a lot, even if you dont start there you can move another char to their newbie area to level up.
As far as classes.. youd have to try a few... SKs are the tank flavor of the month as they got some good upgrades but they should be evened out again by the time you leveled up. Bards and Chanters are always in demand but are a little more boring to play an level up. Druids are the weakest healers but are expected to be beefed up soon, who knows if itll be enough.
@Kabob55 get the xpac it will save u a ton of money and it counts on what you like if you wanna be lazy be a conj or necro if you wanna be in charge be a guardian Sks are badass when it comes to PvP and power lvling but if you wanna be constintly goin be a healer best one would be Warden Temp or Mystic and if you wanna do damage be a scout (Not Bard unless you wanna be grouped offten) or mage (Summoners are more soloers then grpers)
I have played both EQ2 and WoW(EQ1 being my first and still favorite game of all time) and i like them both, its just that WoW gets a little bland. At 80 you start raiding, you get locked to the raids, then you do daily quests. Tuesday comes around and its a same all over again. In EQ the content stretched out much wider. EQ doesn't have you go out kill 10 things and come back for almost every quest you get in the game. In EQ there are always things to do, the level cap isn't the end of the line
thinking of starting this game could anyone try and compare the end game content to me only mmo's ive owned were ffxi ,WoW and guild wars but guild wars dont really count does it have easy short end game boss content like WoW or harder and long with some challenge like ffxi or can you not compare it to either? please no one comment negatively to me like a fan of one that is mad im looking for someone who has played all 3 kinda or atleast ffxi and eq2 not a prick :) rude comments will be ignored
Remember EQ2 and WoW came out in the same month. Yet WoW received: Best PC Game,Best RPG, Best Multiplayer Game, Best Game of the Year Award, Best Massively Multiplayer Online Game, and tons more from all sorts of prestigious companies in the first year it came out. Obviously EQ fails compared to WoW
You'd be surprised about how good EQ2 is. I used to play WoW for 4 years and currently playing EQ2 for a change. Its better than these videos make it out to be.
WoW is only more open to all audiences because of its system requirements and advertising and how easy it is.
Besides, did you ever think that maybe Blizzard paid critics to increase their advertisement? I dont see why not... the world isnt as perfect as it looks.
And on that subject, WoW infact had a very bad release and people who criticise other MMORPG's which have just released, never look back to how WoW did.
Theres a whole lot of ignorance around WoW just because of its player capacity and how easy and adaptable it is.
Search 'Everquest 2 Graphics Showcase 1'
You'll see a bit of solid gameplay there, although the player has slightly changed his ui around.
Hmm, some of those 11 million are paying the equivalent of 6 cents an hour (a few million Chinese), and I'm guessing there that Blizzard turns a blind eye to the gold sellers in return for being able to put WoW in China - hence the colossal amounts of gold spam in WoW.
No doubt its popular though, its got social momentum.
Dropped WoW after WotLK, nothing to do with a hint of challenge but raid and the raiding sucks, really did hit home to me when I realised how dumbed down they've made it.
You are right... they have been padding the game quite a bit... and yes, but I rarely see gold spam anymore. Besides, China has put a limit on how many hours they can be on WoW. like the game shuts down after so long
this video is almost 4 years old dont forget =) I put them up for nostalgia, so old guild members could still see them (that was over 2 years ago). Happy gaming to you be it EQ or WoW. I dont discriminate.
um yes it is, these were made in late 2005 when this content was NEW. They were not put up here till well past a YEAR after they were made, it was all done in house and for US. The only reason I even mention the age is that I want people to be aware the game looks very different now and grafix are obviously much better.
I'm not salt-throwing on the video's maker, but to any who are watching this to get a feel for what eq2 looks like - these graphics are turned down considerably (from video or for performance in game idk). EQ2 is even prettier than this vid shows it to be.
I got to say I played a few mmorpg games and I was hooked on EQ1 but more hooked on EQ2 becuase it wasn't hard to understand plus the engine and everything was great. I have so alot of memorys of Eq1 and Eq2 that will be with me forever and I miss it so much. I never tryed WOW only because it looked like it was more for kids with the cartoon look. EQ2 just had great stories and the best raiding zones. I think the only people that didn't like EQ2 that played it were people who did not raid.
As an eq2 player who's only been on a few raids with a few toons lvl 50+ - I gotta say I love eq2. Even without raiding, there's an incredible number of zones now (I guess in the beginning the progression was rather linear, but this has certainly been fixed.) Whether picking up on an lfg or asking in channel for a good solo zone at my level or even tradeskilling, I'm always busy. All I can say in its detriment is that it's not very noob friendsly, but that's what the 1-9 channel is for.
Duno for me this game sucks and I SAY for me. I dont like its textures and UI is so plane. The only thing that is good for me are animations of spells.
I feel the same the way things move around its like they are just poping around like the dragon, but usually graphics odn't make games look at mario :).
Ive played this game before and i can tell you its not really as good as WoW (MY OPINION). and for the dragon raids in this vid, just compare them to WoW Onyxia raids and youll see a HUGE difference. also, are those statue things supposed to be dragons? LOL.
Every Game has its pluses and minuses, every game has its ups and down. Yes WoW has a larger subscription base. I know many that left EQ and EQ2 for WoW, and many that left WoW for EQ2. Both games are completely valid to ME, so please refrain from bashing either here please.
That said, you should be aware if you dont play EQ2 this is more a music video compilation of raid encounters then anything technical about the system; and it was made 2 years ago, many things have changed.
Ok, I am youtubing Eq2 videos because I want to play Eq2.. But, I have some concerns first I'd like to ask a person who plays Eq2, and plays Eq2 end-game content...
If anyone can, could they possibly give me the address to an Eq2 Irc server?
contact me on AIM, or Msn? just send me a message on here. Thanks!
I played WoW for one year and my account with a lvl 70 got hacked I called blizzard to get my account back and they sent me paper work to get my account back i filled it out in completion and i was denied my account so i switched to ever quest 2 last week i love it way more compared to wow. wow was way to repetitive especially at 70. i would recomend this game above wow. wow is a good first mmo. I hate ppl that diss games that they have never played. So dont diss EQ2 unless you have played it.
Imo EQ1 is so much better than EQ2, i bought EG2 like a week ago to see how it was, so far its a lot worse than EQ1. eally im sorry i even payed for it. The only reason i dont play EQ1 anymore is because i dont have the disks anymore, and i dont feel like paying an upwards of $200 for 14 expantions.
I say WoW is better cause it doesnt take like Hours and hours on end to level thats the only thing i hate about EQ2 takes way to long to level but i guess if i didnt take long to level everyone would be playing it cause it just looks and feels better then wow
I hate you, I hate you, I HATE you for using that goddamn song. WHY did you have to use that song? I hate that song. I hear that song every day because people think it's so freaking cool. I shut off the video the moment that song started playing. The song wasn't even cool when it first came out; the lyrics are garbage and the band isn't even that good. Change it immidiately! PLEASE! And don't even think about replacing it with Remember The Name. I hate that song too...
Haven't played EQ 2 but i have played WoW. and i have to tell you...haha, if sooo bad. I play Guild Wars. So much better then WoW. The skills you have actually MEAN something in that game.
Yea, WoW is right up there with Hello Kitty. WoW is a good if you like mindless game play and pretty colors, especially purple. But if you want a challenging MMORPG, you want to play EQ, EQ2, or regrettably Vanguard.
Eve is awesome, of course you have to be able to take a bit of time to sit down and learn a few things first. You can't mindless start spamming spells and abilities all the way up to 80.
Wow dudes... Everquest was the start of WoW -.- if Everquest wasn't made WoW wasn't made... the Producters of WoW was leaders of the best guild in Everquest... Then WoW and EQ is kinda the same -.- then stay put lol.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i'm sry to say this, but Everquest seems kind of gay, the graphics look horrible and the monsters don't look all that threatening to have u in the zone when u kill them.
There are actually only 2 dragons in that whole expansion Siyamak and Barakah, you can just kill them in 3 different ways. The easier version inside the town, the contested out on the desert isle, and then inside the pedestal of sky where you fight both at the same time at full power, plus extra shit going on; and yes this was made back in the day when we killed them. This video features all 3 ways of fighting them.

Ive played this game before and i can tell you its not really as good as WoW (MY OPINION). and for the dragon raids in this vid, just compare them to WoW Onyxia raids and youll see a HUGE difference. also, are those statue things supposed to be dragons? LOL.
ckafton 3 years ago
My opinion is that this game is more complex then WoW (I've reached just level 30 so I may still be wrong) but not many people play it.

Every Game has its pluses and minuses, every game has its ups and down. Yes WoW has a larger subscription base. I know many that left EQ and EQ2 for WoW, and many that left WoW for EQ2. Both games are completely valid to ME, so please refrain from bashing either here please.
That said, you should be aware if you dont play EQ2 this is more a music video compilation of raid encounters then anything technical about the system; and it was made 2 years ago, many things have changed.

39 dollars for ALL expansions and includes 30 days. This video doesn't convey how cool this game is all that well.

Ok, I am youtubing Eq2 videos because I want to play Eq2.. But, I have some concerns first I'd like to ask a person who plays Eq2, and plays Eq2 end-game content...
If anyone can, could they possibly give me the address to an Eq2 Irc server?
contact me on AIM, or Msn? just send me a message on here. Thanks!

I played WoW for one year and my account with a lvl 70 got hacked I called blizzard to get my account back and they sent me paper work to get my account back i filled it out in completion and i was denied my account so i switched to ever quest 2 last week i love it way more compared to wow. wow was way to repetitive especially at 70. i would recomend this game above wow. wow is a good first mmo. I hate ppl that diss games that they have never played. So dont diss EQ2 unless you have played it.

Imo EQ1 is so much better than EQ2, i bought EG2 like a week ago to see how it was, so far its a lot worse than EQ1. eally im sorry i even payed for it. The only reason i dont play EQ1 anymore is because i dont have the disks anymore, and i dont feel like paying an upwards of $200 for 14 expantions.

Everquest 1 doesnt compare to this game. I play both EQ1 and EQ2 and I seriously have more fun in EQ2 since I am a melee class.
Magic in EQ1 was way better handled tho.

I say WoW is better cause it doesnt take like Hours and hours on end to level thats the only thing i hate about EQ2 takes way to long to level but i guess if i didnt take long to level everyone would be playing it cause it just looks and feels better then wow

I hate you, I hate you, I HATE you for using that goddamn song. WHY did you have to use that song? I hate that song. I hear that song every day because people think it's so freaking cool. I shut off the video the moment that song started playing. The song wasn't even cool when it first came out; the lyrics are garbage and the band isn't even that good. Change it immidiately! PLEASE! And don't even think about replacing it with Remember The Name. I hate that song too...

Yea, WoW is right up there with Hello Kitty. WoW is a good if you like mindless game play and pretty colors, especially purple. But if you want a challenging MMORPG, you want to play EQ, EQ2, or regrettably Vanguard.

Eve is fun, and challenging. But it have a very high learning curve.
Vekkuza 3 years ago
Eve is awesome, of course you have to be able to take a bit of time to sit down and learn a few things first. You can't mindless start spamming spells and abilities all the way up to 80.

Wow dudes... Everquest was the start of WoW -.- if Everquest wasn't made WoW wasn't made... the Producters of WoW was leaders of the best guild in Everquest... Then WoW and EQ is kinda the same -.- then stay put lol.

i'm sry to say this, but Everquest seems kind of gay, the graphics look horrible and the monsters don't look all that threatening to have u in the zone when u kill them.

There are actually only 2 dragons in that whole expansion Siyamak and Barakah, you can just kill them in 3 different ways. The easier version inside the town, the contested out on the desert isle, and then inside the pedestal of sky where you fight both at the same time at full power, plus extra shit going on; and yes this was made back in the day when we killed them. This video features all 3 ways of fighting them.
