Evercrack | 5.0 0 comments |

| As I've never owned a decent computer, Everquest Online Adventures for the PS2 was my first chance to experience the phenomenon known as "Evercrack". Despite dated graphics and some ridiculous role-playing dialogue from NPC's in the beginning, at about level 7, I was already completely hooked. The gameplay is probably the most engaging I've ever come across, and there is literally no end. This game is compared to narcotics for a reason! If you take it for a spin, you'll soon find yourself calling in sick, ignoring phone calls, forgetting to eat or sleep, skipping appointments, and losing all your friends. And let me tell you: it's all worth it. Everquest is the ultimate character-building experience. The fact that you play online with thousands of other EQ-junkies around the globe, and that the developers add updated quests and items monthly, makes for a constantly changing environment. Each day brings new situations and challenges. I've never had more fun with a video game. Sadly, I had to give it up when starting college this spring. I'm 100% serious when I say it would have cost me my scholarships. In conclusion, play at your own risk. |

THE GOOD: mesmerising graphics,auction system,new race Ogre,new class alchemist,new trade skills tailoring and capentry,new island Odus,new monsters and zones,new fog effects, players can choose which way they want to play with old disc or new but if they use the frontiers disc they WILL get more content, and finally a new lvl cap of 60 for thouse players who had their 50's locked away in thouse dusty closets for 8 years j/kTHE BAD: still laggy especially in hi graphics areas conn probs every once in awhile some graphic overlays,you must wait till lvl 10 till u can transport between tunaria and the new island Odus lol j/k on that last one it is lvl 10 restiction but thats ot that bad. SUMMARY: ok let me just say from the start i was blown away first off the start screen was diffrent and after i finally entered my 20 digit code to verify my beta cd i was even happier now lets start this off by how the game ran yes there were some laggy areas like Klick Anon but it is beta testers like me who are emailing the gms to fix issues like this instead of getting a free ride off the beta now as for the NEW Ogre race all i can say is all of them had emersive graphics they are mostly a agressive warlike race and trust me they look like someone u don't wanna meet in a dark ally lol then u got the NEW Class Alchemist all i can say is WOW they are awsome with their potions and now EVERY class has higher rez character models and now u can change the way your char looks if u wish whenever u enter the game world well i've said most all i can besides they also added a preversion of the upcoming auction system into the beta i would say more but i can't reveil to much about the beta but i'll be post a new review when the game hits store shelfs i alrdy preordered mine due out November 17th 2003 |
