I never played EQoA but did play FF just for a little while.
In my oppinion EQ2 is one of the best MMOs ive played in a while.
im sure there are goin to be ppl that disagree but of course this
is the EQ2 forums so i wouldnt be here if i didnt think it was a great game.
As compared to FF i think its a much more enjoyable game. Better
graphics, and easier to navigate the game. I think its a great game
all around. And if i had to make a comparison i would compare it to
the Original DAoC, if you ever played that.
Hope this helps in your decision to play the game!!! :)
