I want a fun game to play whilst I wait for Diablo 3/ Guild Wars 2, I'm so bored of GW1 right now. How does this game stack up against the major titles?

[PlaceboC6]

@GaxAngel I've quit and come back to it 2 or 3 times which is more than I can say for other MMO's...

It's getting a little old but the graphics engine is definitely more up to date than GW1. GW2 should be pretty cool. Playing Star Wars Old Republic at the moment

@PlaceboC6 how did you get the game to look so good ?

[PlaceboC6]

@goodvocalcover I'm running an Nvidia GTX 480 and an i7 CPU. No third party mods, just have the graphics turned up pretty high. Also I turned off the user interface to pull all the icons off to record the video

just wondering what is the 2011 EQ2 population is?

[PlaceboC6]

@CaptainViral84 Probably not too high

[Hijynx87]

@L2Nuku exactly, MMORPG aren't even supposed to be about crazy graphics, otherwise a lot of people wouldn't be able to play them. They would all need sexy gaming rigs with GTX 560s lol.

@operations1000 It's probably higher now than in 05 actually. Returning players and the new gimped out f2p model.

@GaxAngel EQ is the best as far as depth, maturity and hard core gameplay! pussies need not apply here!

[Hijynx87]

@CaptainViral84 doh just realized that you posted that 9 months ago lol. If you haven't tried it yet it has gone f2p....it's kinda gimped unless you pay monthly though. You can only have so much money per level, not every race/class, restrictions on spells etc etc. Still a lot of fun though if you are just starting fresh.

[Hijynx87]

@CaptainViral84 Not bad, at least it's not full of idiots. Imagine an MMO with minimal trolls and people that actually go out of their way to help you out! EQ1 and EQ2 have the best communities out of any mmorpg IMO.

@CaptainViral84 I can tell you that 2012 population is HIGH! after is went F2P its been filled up with LOTS of peeps!

Im paying tho, as there is no limits then:)

[jon4szt4r]

@PlaceboC6 False!

Ahhhhh the memories, this game aint dead yet? Lolz...well if WoW is still living then I shouldn't be surprised. Honestly back in 2005 (when I played) was it's glory years..after that it started losing popularity vs WoW cuz of unpopular changes to the game that was making it more and more like WoW so people said 'fuck it, why play this then if they try to make it so much like WoW play WoW' and thus they fucked themselves..I'm guessing the population of this game must be VERY low nowadays.

Personally i think Lineage 2 looks a bit better than this (especially animation wise) , but yeah the older MMO's don't look outdated, ppl are just used to all the single player games out there that go for graphics instead of gameplay :(
