| Everquest really had me tied into the lore and the world, every game that came since I just kinda played,even WoW,without getting to much into lore or the world.
So EQ2 was so exciting for me,but it was a disappointment, it was just so unfamiliar. The game itself had many great ideas and concepts but at the same time had many bad concepts. So initially I was very upset about it.
Coming back to it now with Fay and Kunark I love the game and it's familiar,but the early levels in the original EQ zones just don't capture the essence of it's predecessor that I was wanting. They have also fixed much that I disliked early on.
All in all though taken from it's initial launch the game was my biggest disappointment. I didn't follow wow early on, it was hyped beyond beleife and so I wanted it to be a pure experience; I had a beta invite early on but I didn't use it and ignored media like these boards up until it's release, so I didn't have anything to be disappointed about going into it. I was disappointed in the pvp mechanics post launch as none worked as advertised and it seemed quite exciting on paper. |
