Trojan horse virus found on 2nd disc 5 out of 5
I liked the first Everquest and have played Everquest II since it came out and have liked that game as well. I get bored every now and then but with 12 character and having to do the same quests for each character gets repetitious but I like all my characters just the same. I have yet to play this new expansion but my main complaint is not about the game. I ordered 2 of the game expansions packs, one for myself and one for my girlfriend and have found that my norton antivirus detects a trojan viras on both of the disc 2's. When I enter the first disc it comes up with a window that has the option to Modify, Repair or Uninstall. I tried the Modify but didnt seem to do anything so then tried the repair which seemed to reinstall all the previous versions of EQ2 as well as the expansion. So, I did get the whole thing installed but there is a trojan virus on the 2nd disc which, again, norton did detect and did no harm to my computer but I wonder how many other expansion discs out there may have the same problem and the unexpecting person doesnt have an antivirus to detect it and may infect their computers. All I can say is that it seem like there is a bad batch of EQ2 expansions out there people should be aware that there may be a virus on disc 2.
Better than ever 5 out of 5
I had played the game in 2007 and decided to purchase the expansion and catch up with some old friends. I am glad I went back, the game is dynamic and I enjoy it even more than I did in 2007 when I stopped playing.
Everquest simply a blast 5 out of 5
Everquest has such a wide variety of things to do that it accommodates a very wide range of play styles. I like to think of Everquest as WOW for grownups.
Rip-OFF!!!!! 1 out of 5
I paid for the game, entered the code that came with the game and then nothing. The game advertised that it came with one month of play time included with purchase and after I uploaded it the service wanted me to purchase time to play the game. I am so upset the game is in the garbage and the money is gone. I do not recommend buying this game. There are many other MMO's out there to try.
I wish I could give a negative rating as I am negative money for trying this service from Sony.
I love this game 4 out of 5
I love this game and spend far too much time playing it. There is a huge amount of content, many lands to explore, a huge number of things to do. The fantasy artwork is pleasant, and I enjoy the selection of races. Join a heavily used server, and you'll find plenty of people to join up with who like what you do, whether that's rp, or informal grouping, or hardcore raiding, or even just playing by yourself in a public setting.
Going into the negatives, as you get into the high end content, it requires an investment in time I wasn't interested in if you want your toon to be competitive with others (of course for those who like challenge and rewards for challenge this will be an advantage). Pulling together large groups for raid content at the high levels is difficult because the design often requires specific classes of character for it to work. But hey, if you don't care for that, the game is huge and no one forces to play at any particular level, you can do what you enjoy. There are even guilds who make a policy of stopping their characters from increasing in power so they can enjoy older content together.
