Comments on: Still So Much To See http://mmoquests.com/2009/07/13/still-so-much-to-see/ A peek into my world of mmo gaming Thu, 11 Mar 2010 19:47:32 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: We Fly Spitfires http://mmoquests.com/2009/07/13/still-so-much-to-see/comment-page-1/#comment-10393 We Fly Spitfires Tue, 14 Jul 2009 21:26:21 +0000 http://mmoquests.com/?p=2382#comment-10393 Versatility is one of the reasons I think EQ2 is the best MMORPG available. You can pretty much do anything you want and all of it is well thought out and well put together. The game doesn't try to force people into just soloing or raiding, it has everything you could imagine. Versatility is one of the reasons I think EQ2 is the best MMORPG available.

I love the game, just love it - there's really no better game for me out there in terms of overall playability. And I think of so many things I haven't done! I've never had a max level crafter (I don't think I've ever hit level 50!) I only have one level 80 and one in the mid 70s, both scouts. There's so many quests, and HQs, and full quest chains I haven't explored. I guess when I re-join the game next I need to really attack those - it's so easy to change focus as you mentioned and switch from crafting to questing to messing around in your house - I think - what's my excuse?

(This falls apart in T7, where my Dirge will have to clear out all of the solo timelines because I'm still getting slaughtered by mobs in Kunark at 68, but otherwise I've been able to reserve most of the evil and Faydwer content for alts.) I don't think I'm ever going to end up with an account full of 80's, but it's nice that there are enough creative class/race options that I'd have a hard time picking just seven if I were going to make the attempt. I'm also slightly amused/horrified to hear of the demise of your Bruiser after having asked about the state of the class yesterday. Maybe that Ratonga Bruiser/Monk isn't as good a plan as I'd been thinking.... ;) I’ve been spending some time on my first serious EQ2 alt, and it has been pretty refreshing to have a completely separate leveling path from my first character.
