[citation][nom]ET3D[/nom]It has changed a lot. Lots of new areas, quests, alternate advancement, class changes. IMO it's a lot easier now, which I don't think is bad. Crafting is much simplified, travel is a lot faster, starting zones give you lots of quests, and, well, it's free, so why not check it out.As for SOEmote and non frog characters, check out the video at soemote.com. I think that the low poly characters make this less impressive than it could be, but is still looks like fun. Now if only I had any idea where my webcam is.[/citation]
ok, that looks FAR better than the frog above... only way i can see improvement would be is if they can differentiate teeth and lips.
how is the game voice chat... do people actually use it? or is it like everquest one, where everyone would rather set up a guild team speak?
also. most importantly to me, how far does the game let you level? eq1 free to play put major restrictions on items you can use at higher levels, aa you can gain, and only gives you level 1-60 effectively for free, because of the 200aa limit, if you level passed 60 you are completely useless.
when does the leveling cap hit on eq2, am i able to solo most of the game? in eq1 i waited 6 hours for a group once, and i was the best non raid dps on the server, granted that was pre mercs... what kind of merca re available in the game if they are... in eq1 you are capped at a fairly useless apprentance unless you pay for the journeymen.
and lastly, is there a way that i can force myself to stop leveling? i assume that the leveling cap is fairly low compared to what you can get to in the game, in eq one, i could set my exp 100% to aa, and never level at all if i so chose, am i able to do that in eq2?
sorry if im asking allot, but this has me really interested, and i have a month or two of time to kill.
