I've been playing everquest 2 since 2011. If I could rate the game out of 10 it would be 6. I love Everquest 2 very dearly, it will always be in my heart. Everytime I try to find a different game to play I always come back to Everqeust 2. There are a lot of good and bad things about the game. I gave a 6/10 because there are many issues with Everquest 2 that need to be addressed by the devs and haven't been. I cannot ignore that despite my deep love for this classic game. Some of the bad stuff; [*] Lots of graphical bugs that have yet to be addressed( particularly the GPU shadows and small things like fish appearing above the water because something about the transparecy of the water is wrong.) [*] Some of the purchasable content seems over priced and definitely money grabbing... ( e.g The Aerakyn(Dragon) race costs 42 dollars if you want to have cool animations and the ability to fly with your wings. Things I feel that the race should come with by default. ) [*] Poor enforcment of code of conduct. There are few players who consistently cheat other players out of plat, loot and verbally abuse them. There IS an ignore feature but a player like this needs to be penalized accordingly. [*] Limited variety of flying mounts to choose from The Good stuff; [*] The lore is exceptional, creative and the writers are very good at touching your heart and making endings that you'd never expect! [*] There is a LOT of content, as to be expected for a game like this... you will never fun out of stuff to do! [*] There are a lot of friedly players out there [*] You can join a guild and make friends or closer, like family! [*] You can decorate houses! [*] There are heaps of different classes to choose from! [*] There are so many areas to explore in the world of Norrath and some are breath-takingly beautiful. [*] Everquest 2's art captures fantasy in a realistic way.
