EQ2.WarCry has an interview with major league baseball player Curt Schilling, who apparently plays a lot of EQ2:Tamat - You’ve been playing EverQuest for quite a long time now, when did you decide to make the switch to EverQuest II? How would you compare the two?
Curt - I made the switch to EQ2 during the last year and a half. Once I got to see some pre beta stuff, and hear the direction it was headed, I knew I wanted to try it.
You know, I wouldn't. Honestly the games bear the same name, and they have at their center mostly the same races, classes, but I can't compare them simply because they both have such an enormously different feel to me. I think the main reason that is, and I almost regret it now, was the haste in which I got to 50 in EQ2 as compared to my EQ1 toons. I made a serious effort to see and experience as much of the game as I could, but there was so much added after I had leveled past it, and so many zones that I never really got to see in depth during the leveling crunch I played under, that I missed alot. That being said, I am apart of a very good guild so my EQ2 experience is fun, and I am enjoying the game. My main concern at the moment is the extreme lack of direction and content in the high end game. |
