| Biography | At a party, EQ2 is like the whole place where all the adults are talking, and having fun. WoW is the room where all the kids go play so they aren''t underfoot. |

No, the beta period ended over 4 years ago.
I just added this to my Station Access acct last week and have got some good time in on it. It wasn't that much of a hit at $20 for the discs.
The game isn't half bad. It's not as polished as EQ2, and it has bugs, but the world is huge and diverse. Actually I have not seen such diversity in a base release game without expansions anywhere else. WoW even with expansion does not come close to the areas that VG has.
For me, it is a diversion once in a while when I want a change for a night, with something that's different, without having to add another subscription cost. It is weak graphically and content-wise compared to EQ2 but the added things such as diplomacy, make it worth playing.
Am I the only one that likes DoF?
I think for the powers that be to say that player housing ads nothing to the game is a cop out. It is a way to say that they just don't want to do it. It would ad something to the game if they make it that way. It's ridiculous to think that player housing has to be a cut out of every other game.
Some games do have housing that ads something to the game. I know people don't want to hear this here, but EQ2 housing features are quite nice with all that you can do with your place, including, making it functionally useful to your crafting, and adventuring, not to mention, a lot of fun to decorate.
If you want it, ask for it.
Are you sure this memory problem exists? I am running the game with 2gb ram, on a 2.2 ghz system with no problems? It sounds exagerated.
