sorry about the last topic i made....

 

completley forgot about this post

 

i updated the first post to be more recent

Your 'cons' are pretty big hitters.

 

 

 

Anyways imediatly I would shut out Runescape , Guild wars (which isn't an MMO fyi) and FFXI (because you dislike repetitive action) from the list.

 

 

 

 

 

That leaves us with a general World of Warcraft versus Everquest II debate.

 

 

 

First of all perhaps you want to try a different game. You can maybe give EvE Online a shot. Its a very complex game, however you don't have to do repetitive actions to 'level up'. Leveling up is real time based and you may enjoy it a bit.

 

 

 

Alternatively you could play a game and wait until October for when Age of Conan comes out. It's going to be amazing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Failing these you have Everquest II and WoW. Generaly EQ II will take longer to hit the max level than WoW will. Everquest II's combat as well, in my opinion, is less refined and not as fun as WoW. (having played EQ II for about 6 months and WoW for maybe 7-8 now).

 

 

 

As far as having other things to do Everquest II edges out WoW. If you enjoy tradeskills EQ II has a fairly in-depth tradeskilling system that is very unique. Even for someone who loathes tradeskilling I found my self making some stuff in game and enjoying it.

 

 

 

Both games offer PvP however Everquest II only has world PvP, while WoW has world pvp (barely) , battlegrounds and the arena.

 

 

 

If you die in Everquest II vs a player you will lose a percentage of money on your character at the time. In WoW you lose nothing while fighting another player.

 

 

 

 

 

Quest wise Everquest II has more. WoW feels a bit more.. streamlined in their quests and at least in the start you won't have to run all over the place. For uniqueness both offer the same ammount of "do X" quest crap while occasionally having unique quest. Both of them also are dependent on questing for leveling.

 

 

 

 

 

Graphically Everquest II will not run well on a poor computer. Even on mine it managed to shudder at spots and especially in town. If you play it I would recommend 2 gigs of ram. I enjoy WoW's art style better personally.

 

 

 

UI wise WoW wins by a landslide. The ammount of changes you can do to your UI is amazing, and it is much easier to work with than add-ons in Everquest II.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Just a bit of my personal opinion.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Was just about to post it when your topic was locked :).

thanks :D

 

 

 

I have a good comp so I don't care about lag or anything.

 

 

 

hmmm.... Age of Conan... ill look into that
