I guess it depends on what you enjoy in an MMORPG. If you're a hardcore powergamer looking for lots of big 72 person raids that take 6 hours to finish, then i'd recommend EQ1. If you're more of a casual gamer that likes questing and solo/duo/small group content, i'd lean towards EQ2
That is neither fair nor accurate.
I play EQ solo, duo and with friends at low level and have a great time. The lore is rich and there are plenty of quests albeit harder to figure out and complete (some actually take skill)
And EQ2 is increasingly not a solo/duo game. It can be played solo but more and more we are running into places that can only be entered in groups. Or quests that require groups to complete.
What level would you have to be to solo AQ1?
To the OP:
If you are social and looking for something new then EQ2 would probably suit well. EQ is a bit opaque by todays standards. If you played it before you might be ok.
