EverQuest II Reviews

It's always tough reviewing MMORPGs since they tend to morph and change dramatically over time, but it's safe to say that Everquest II is a solid effort. It takes place in a gigantic world with loads of great content, and the seemingly endless number of small quests means that if you only have a half-hour to play, you can actually get something done. However, Everquest II isn't terribly intuitive or noob-friendly when you're just starting out, its questing system could use some real improvements, and the lack of any PvP is a bummer to the bloodthirsty savages at GR. So provided you like to role-play and have a lot of time on your hands, you should definitely give Sony's latest quest a long, hard Care Bear stare.
The second is at VGLN with an overall score of 9.0/10:
If you lived on the original EverQuest, you will be happy with this new jaunt in the world of Norrath. If you are new to the MMORPG genre and want to explore it, the tutorial and romp through the Isle of Refuge should get you up to speed.
And the third is at TenTonHammer with an overall score of 4/5:
The game is as immersive as you likely find anywhere, with little touches like giving the NPCs voiceovers rather than just text chat. It truly is a gem of a game.
EverQuest 2 is currently the King of the Hill in the MMORPG genre. It looks fantastic and plays even better.
