Re: EverQuest 2: some gripes
Oh, I like these "Hulk Vs The Thing" confrontations.
WoW is still the game I would recommend to most players. It has still the best design and overall best quality. Even if it failed to find a direction where to evolve and it seems it won't move past its limits.
EQ2. I would recommend it to bored WoW players who are looking for something slightly more complicated and immersive, to the harware geeks with VERY powerful computers and to the achievers and explorer types of players who tried WoW and found it too superficial and not enough incisive. Basically for those who want "the same game but different flavor".
DAoC is the less visible game, with some unique qualities. It isn't hard to get into and some parts of it need to be "suffered", but the best PvP and combat/group mechancs are still there. It was never able to really evolve past of its initial limits but that original value is still strong. Sadly, I would recommend it only to former players and those who search a good PvP endgame but that are already experieced with the genre.
EvE is the "niche" game. It is the most innovative one and the one with the greater depth. It inherits some of the qualities and potential of the original Ultima Online, but all these aspects are painfully hard to reach. So I would recommend only to those who search for something different and are willingly to invest a lot in a single game, and delve, delve and delve.
