Calling Out EQ2ers!
Do you play EQ2? Are you a blogger? Could you do me a favor? Since EQ2 is hitting its 5th year anniversary as well, one of the things I would love to read is an article about five features or aspects of EQ2 that are better than World of Warcraft. I’m not asking for a WoW-bashing ...

EQ2 and WoW
The Wizard of Duke Street — Syp asked people to write about things in EQ2 that are better than WoW. And then my esteemed guildmate, Stropp, wrote down all my answers. So while I agree with Stropp on all his points, I want to head off in a slightly different direction here. Everquest II and World of Warcraft are different games. This is a pretty obvious statement, but it took until I was discussing the comparison this morning with some friends that I really realised how different they are. One of the key aspects of that realisation is that I've been trying, for most of the time I've been ...

Five Things That EQ2 Does Better Than WoW

Turning the table: Calling out WoWers!
BullCopra — Syp from excellent Bio Break called for all EQ2 players blogging to list "features or aspects that were better in EQ2 than in World of Warcraft". I want to turn the table around: I'm calling on all WoW players/bloggers to come up with as wonderfull lists of features, aspects or things which make WoW so much better than EQ2! If the stars had been differently, or the phase of the moon the other way, could this current situation be the other way around? That we'd be asking why EQ2 was better than WoW, and that EQ2 had more subscribers, ...
