EverQuest II Reviews

EverQuest II mostly doles out predesignated skills as you level, so character customization comes from loot and skill upgrades. Player artisans sell custom weapons and armor if you can afford them, plus better-quality spell and attack scrolls so you can upgrade the baseline apprentice I skills you earn leveling. Alternatively, limited instanced quests have been added in an effort to reduce camping, although it's still alive and well. Powerful adept I and master I upgrade scrolls are only rarely dropped from boss encounters, and adept III scrolls are difficult for players to craft due to recipe and ingredient shortages, so you can either create or buy upgraded apprentice-level scrolls or pitch a tent yourself in hopes of finding better ones. Fortunately, much of the game feels balanced for apprentice III scrolls, and many crafters create and sell these inexpensively.
And the second is at Cheat Code Central with an overall score of 4.5/5:
EverQuest 2 is poised to recapture the minds and souls of countless gamers from around the world where they will be held prisoner of their own volition. Turning them into helpless addicts feeding off the energy of an artificial world they help create which can sometimes be more real than the one they've left behind.
