mmorpg's world of warcraft or eq2..... - Tech Support Forums

I was set on WoW, but then i just realized eq2 is coming out in a week or so.........which do you guys think will be better and which will attract alot of people.......WoW looks good, but i got a feeling that eq2 will crush it by coming out a week before...................who wants to play 2 mmorpg's at once?

You can try Guildwars for free this weekend
http://www.guildwars.com/preview/wpe...tdownload.html

Its not even in beta yet, but something to try out

Its pretty cool

I won't bother with EQ2. Sony's support leaves a bit to be desired, and with EQ original they nailed you every month for money plus the occasional expansion pack they sold.
Booooooo

I'll check out WoW myself

WoW is good stuff!!!!

Next week blizzard will unveil their plan for release.
What I know they are getting ready to set a stress test next week, also lets us see what will be the pricing policy of blizzard.

Some say Nov 15 will be the launch date.

WOW looks awesome, but I haven't played computer games in 11 weeks, and I'm not sure if I will have time for a MMORPG.

yea im just up in the air between the two...............my whole bfv clan is getting WoW though so i guess i'd rather go with them and use TS then be alone, just the gameplay videos looked like eq's graphics were much better..............im such a loser for being 25 and getting stressed out over what game to buy...hahahah

graphics is not everything on a game..

Gameplay and comunity it what makes a game shine, I have tested wow for 4 weeks, 2 on the stress test 2 on closed beta.

I can say I enjoyed every hour I have spend there and want more, I left a lot of stuff pending.

In my opinion try Guild Wars before you decide, but I haven't tried EQ2 and I don't know if I'll ge into the beta for WoW, so it's up to what you want. I think that I will wait for Guild Wars.

Ans also, Guild Wars won't have any monthly fee like other MMORPG's!

yea theo i've been playing guild wars all day and night, lots of fun......too bad i got semi addicted and its gonna close at like midnight...................
