EverQuest II: Echoes of Faydwer Reviews

Category: News ArchiveHits: 697
With so many changes and new features brought along by this latest expansion, along with its all-inclusive player focus, the virtual world of EverQuest II has become more robust and adventure-filled than any other MMORPG I've ever played (yeah, I said it WoW fanboys, what are you gonna do about it?) And what's more, the boxed retail version now includes the base EQII game with all three expansion packs for the price of one, so if you're interested in converting from another game then this is the optimal time and place to get started. I honestly can't dish out enough praise to the SOE dev team for how far above and beyond they went with this one; Echoes of Faydwer is the epitome of what a classic expansion should be and is easily among 2006's best releases.
And the second is at Gamer's Hell with an overall score of 7.5/10:
I'm having a swell time being a Faery. Stop that! I hear you laughing. If you haven't tried EQ2 at all, the Echoes of Faydwer complete game release is a great value and comes with the requisite free month of play. If you feel a little anonymous, overwhelmed, or frustrated by WoWs 7 million other inhabitants, are tired of waiting for battles, or gathering dozens of people for raids, you might enjoy Faydwer and the world of EQ2. Technical issues aside, it is a game that has matured, grown, and evolved, and I recommend checking it out.
