the graphics are going to be above and superb anything that is out there now in the MMORPG market.

Whether or not the gameplay will be better remains to be seen. I do have faith though since they did create the most successful highly addictive Everquest 1

Everquest1 was it's greatest under Verant (the original founding company). When Sony took over I thought it progressively went downhill.....now I think it's total rubbish.

Sony's dungeon's are too formulaic (LDoN anyone?). Their quests are too time-sinky (Luclin VT keys, and Emp key). And their use of flagging in PoP and GoD creates too many headaches for guild progression.

Or maybe it's just a great game and I got burnt out after 3 or 4 years playing it. :thumb:

I think a combo of both

Truth is I think they realized many mistakes they did in the past 2-3 years and working to fix that in EQ2..for example get rid of flagging and keying

Of course whether they fix it and then break something else is entirely possible..LOL
