Some Everquest 2 impressions from E3 are online at Gamespot. They especially liked the character models:
The most impressive feature we observed in EverQuest II was its highly detailed character models. The game will give you many, many ways to customize the way your character looks, including different hairstyles, eye colors, chins, facial tattoos, and even scars. Considering the huge variety of highly detailed clothing and armor we saw, such as intricately detailed chain-mail armor and a frilly courtesan's gown, EverQuest II will hopefully afford you many more opportunities to make a unique-looking character. The visual distinction between characters will be further enhanced by the game's all-new character models, which will make players of different races look very, very different from each other; for instance, wood elves and dark elves will be considerably shorter than humans, while ogres will be huge, muscular creatures that will look truly imposing when wearing a suit of full plate armor. (As it happens, the best armor in the entire game will have to be crafted by a new character class, the tradesman.) EverQuest II will also feature a huge set of new character animations for "emote" gestures as well as for fighting. We witnessed a tavern brawl between a female human monk and a male ogre; the monk fought with skillful kicks and open-handed strikes, while the ogre adopted more of a boxer's fist-fighting style. |
