If you’ve ever had an EQ1 or EQ2 account but currently aren’t subscribing, SOE wants you back and they’re going to give you 60 days for free. On top of that they’re giving free access to all expansions currently available. That doesn’t mean much to me for EQ2, since I had bought RoK [...]
I canceled my recurring 3 month subscription to EverQuest 2 a couple of months back and now that my billing cycle has come up, I’m done, for a while at least. I’m not exactly hurting for games to play these days and the xbox 360 is great for relaxing on the couch and killing [...]
For anyone getting the urge to fire up the original EverQuest for nostalgic purposes, Shards of Dalaya is a free way to do so as long as you have Titanium version or higher. SoD is an EQ emulation, free to use and play although donations are appreciated and used to keep the server running. [...]
I could use some new furniture for my humble little 3 roomer in North Freeport. Chairs that match would be a good start, and maybe some platform beds for those times when company gets too drunk to leave. Could just let ‘em sleep on the floor though, cheaper for me and funnier too [...]
A great thing about playing video games is the complete political incorrectness of it all, at least as far as animal treatment is considered. Don’t get me wrong, I hate it when animals are mistreated out here in the real world, but this is a game and I can separate virtual from reality without [...]
As usual now that I can do all my selling directly from any broker in the game, I tend to forget to go back and pay the rent once in a while. Not that it really matters since I only have 1 box full usually, but if the rent ain’t paid then people can’t [...]
… the alts are still running a little dry on overall fun. Maybe it’s from having 4 alts all between levels 22 and 32 so they’re all adventuring in the pretty much the same couple of zones. Whatever the reason, it’s starting to feel like I’m just running on a treadmill grinding a [...]
He dies a lot, but then necros aren’t exactly afraid of death. Lately I’ve been playing my rat necro, Skullpoker, and in the last couple days I’ve taken him from level 20 to 23 just hanging around the docks in Thundering Steppes. It’s time to head back to civilization though and hit the [...]
So last night I decided to pop into EQ2 and join ‘raid night’, we had 5 people online, but no tank since most of them were playing alts. I don’t have any alts high enough so I just went with Kal. They were taking the alts through Mistmoore Catacombs to finish up some [...]
What little time I spend in Norrath lately always seems to end up being spent playing alts. One of the reasons for this is that a buddy of mine just came back to the game after a 3 year break. He tried it when it first came out but quickly decided he didn’t [...]
Been making a bit of progress across the various games I’ve been playing lately. In EQ2 I’ve hit level 75 Inquisitor (and 106 AA) with Kalamaf and level 76 Provisioner with Azeem. Been spending the last couple of days in Fens of Nasthar since I pretty much skipped it earlier and went to [...]
So Thursday night for ‘raid night’ we actually had a full group online, and since most of us had been wanting to go it was an easy decision to go hit Karnor’s Castle. We’ve all heard that the zone is crappy exp, crappy loot and so on, but off we went anyway, prepared to [...]
New expansions mean new boats to get to the expansions. Thankfully it’s not like the old days though. Taking a royal caribbean style cruise to get from Butcherblock Mountains to Freeport was a real pain in the ass. I don’t compare it to a cruise because of the comfort and fun, it’s [...]
So last night while flying around the Fens of Nasthar to work on some quests, I accidentally hit the space bar while circling Kurn’s Tower. I didn’t think this would be a problem since when I was in Timorous Deep you couldn’t dismount from the griffons during flight. It turns out that the [...]
