They call this a MMORPG but the fact is there is zero RPG involved. Even on the RPG server nobody does. If you want to kill monsters, the same monsters, for 50+ levels then get this. If you want RPG though don't touch it with a barge pole.

EverQuest means forever finding a good quest...

Before I start, I'd like to say to shoppers that you need to read the low star reviews to learn the truth of the game. I find the low star reviews much more truthful, and for Everquest, it's the same complaints, meaning it isn't coming from just one.

I tried playing for the 8th time, hoping I'll get into it this time. I stopped the first day. Why? Just by looking at the screen, I see 15 monsters roaming about, and I see no quests on the screen. What does this mean? 1) It's unballanced with quests and combat, 2) It's a hack-n-slash game.

I can't roleplay in the game, even in the roleplaying server. Your judged by how you look, and that is bascially who they know you as. Not that you're a lvl 50 warrior who has two children that are lost. And you're looking for them. Problem is they don't exist!

People argue its more than hack-n-slash, but you can quickly realize they don't want to face the truth that hurts. All I know is I wasted 12 dollars again due to all the continuous hype.

But if you love killing monsters, from day 1 to infinity, get the game. Just don't expect to roleplay or expect any worth-while quests.

An excellent expansion, if you're new to the game.

This is the first expansion I bought for EQ, and I found it was perfect for me, as I was what people tend to call a "Newb." This game, in my opinion has fair graphics, good quests, and the Iskar is a fun race to play. The only thing lacking of this expansion, would have to be the lack of places to gain experience and level up at. If you have no other expansions, I would recommend purchasing "EverQuest: The Shadows Of Luclin" before buying this one. For one thing, with Luclin, you can go to Paludal to gain pretty good experience... You also get to go to the Bazaar, which is a pretty fun place. All in all, buying this expansion is a good plan, but if you have the money, you should buy the Luclin expansion first.(Well, technically, you should buy the EQ game itself first, before buying expansions, but you know what I mean.)

The BEST game i've ever owned

When my brother first showed me and thought me how to pay the game i was amazed in it. Then as soon as i got it i loaded it and got right on. Didn't even take long :) Now when i log on i am on it for AT LEAST 16 hours a day. Even though there is a monthly fee (...) ITS WORTH IT :) If i were you i would buy it in a heart beat!! :)

Everquest is by far the most fun, most original RPG of its time. It was before ashrens call, before diablo 2, beforew all the WANNA B everquest. This game hold ober 400,000 active people willing to pay the 10 dollars a monht because it is so much fun. I personally have been playing for about 2 years, and of the people i know in real life and through everquest, most people who bought the game more than 2-3 years ago, still play it. It is an everchanging world that will keep you on your toes, this is truly a game to buy. The one, and there is only one, con is that it is some what addictive. It is such a good game that it may consume you. It has me and people i know, but as far as im concerned that is fine by me.

I wish I had it

The Kunark expansion nearly doubled EQ's world and extended the longevity of the game immeasurably. Make sure you get this if you are going to play EQ.

Great game!!

This game is so real. It is unlike any other game because you have the ability to communicate with people from all over the wolrd. This game is by far the most realistic game out there!!

I orginally started to play this game at a friends house. I became very addicted to the game and I have it in the mail coming to me very soon. It's great for anyone who likes to play AD&D. It gives you a nice graphic view of many of the characters that would look like from AD&D characters. You can either play solo or group up to level up. But grouping is the easiest way to Level up quickly. There are tons of monsters and lots of different types of characters to play and the style you want to be in. There is magic, warriors, monks, wizards ect in all different speicies. This game is great to kill any time, but the time does fly by on this game, so make sure if you have a date to some where, you keep track of time. What i like about the game is, the first month is free, almost like a trial, after that its up to you if you want to continue to play it. There are tons of servers to play on, so if you don't like one of the servers, try another until you find one that you appriciate.
