I can't express how much I was in the wrong.. I should have definitely picked up this game instead of wasting 3 months on WoW.
The classes are very well balanced. (some exceptions, Like ranger stands out due to its ranged dps so low) Heroic Opportunities > anything in WoW. The combat is way, way more dynamic. This game's Graphics are twice as good as WoW's,this is about as comparable the graphics are for the two games. EQ2 settings on low = WoW settings on high. More races and classes to choose from is a major Plus. EQ2 has just as many quests as WoW and wasnt even as close to completion as WoW was when it came out. This game is going to go alot farther than WoW's simple story line can take it. I'm Only level 15 at the moment and I can tell that the overall fun of combat is better than WoW.
Sorry for the rant but I cannot believe i wasted my breath on WoW.
Oh and P.S. non-craptasically crappy servers are a plus too, I like to walk into main cities and actually move around, Not wait 10 minutes for the server to catch up... oh yeah! one last thing, I love not crashing when searching the brokers.
Now this is coming from a player who totally thought EQ2 was not going to make it at all, And now that I have played the two games. It's clear which is the greener Pasture.
edit (WoW = World of Warcraft)
