tbh i dont honestly think it will be that good. the graphics are ok, nothing when you look at something like EQ2. graphics mean nothing in an mmorpg anyway, look at UO. if it doesnt have anything new and fun to offer me from normal mmorpgs, i wont get it, simple as that. and i dont think it does offer anything new. EQ is completely original (all mmorpgs are around because of EQ).. and unless WoW is something equally as ground breaking and original, sod it.

The textures on EQ2 look plastic, like barbie dolls or something.

EQ2 is pretty much already winning. everyone playing EQ is prolly gonna go over to it (exept me, having to much fun on eq), and thats about 399k people straight off..

Going for Dragon Empires myself: like their ideas (no zerging, player driven economics, guild vs. guild, guild owned towns, etc etc).
Dont know much about WoW: must agree it looks nice, but I dont buy the hype at this point.

[old.Dillinja]
