To those of you who are considering giving EQ2 a try, it is a great game. It is not, nor has it ever been a WoW clone. The graphics are superior (that said, you do need a good machine to make it look that way and I agree  this needs some work, especially for a four year old game), the game play is superior and it is not as easy as some here seem to think. It is certainly not "WoW" easy... It is the best PvE/quest game out there in my opinion and I have tried every major MMORPG to be released. I keep coming back to EQ2. (The PvP may be lacking, but then I am not a big fan of PvP.) There are, as I have recently realized, a lot of people in these forums who simply hate SOE and anything SOE puts out due to some old grudges.

I have played EQ2 on and off since launch. I have tried every other major fantasy based mmorpg that has come out since and I keep going back to EQ2. Say what you want about it, it is a great game. Sure, there are things I would change, but there is far more to like about it than any other mmorpg I have tried so far. The community, the player base, puts all others to shame as far as atmosphere and friendliness are concerned. I see people here bashing it left and right everytime something positive is said about it and have to wonder how many of them played it for more than a week.  i see now that most of it is spawned by a hatred of SOE in general. This game, or any other produced by SOE, will never get a fair shake from most of negative posters here. I have had issues with some of the things SOE has done myself, but I'm not going to let it ruin a good game for me. For those of you who tried it and just didn't like it, I can respect that.
