Manufacturer's Description
Centuries of war have left their mark on the continent of Kunark. Explore this massive region as your existing character, or as the new playable race -- The Sarnak -- and discover a world full of intrigue and danger. Engage in all-new adventures as you embark on a crusade to reveal the truth of the wars between the reborn Iksar Empire and the Sarnak, and uncover artifacts long since thought lost to history. Experience the lush, nostalgic continent of Kunark and begin your courageous path from the new starting city in Timorous Deep.

Rise of Kunark includes many highly-detailed areas that are fondly remembered from EverQuest as well as brand new areas only recently unearthed! Hundreds of new quests, dozens of new NPCs, brand new Epic Weapon quests for each class, and new armor sets await those who dare set foot on this fabled continent.

Fun:
This latest offering from the Sony stable is a truly impressive package: the original game and ALL of the expansions and adventure packs together.
The game is simply vast. The game world itself - Norrath - is huge, offering tremendous scope for adventure. Players can choose from a wide selection of character types - the standard FRPG choice of fighters, mages, clerics and scouts is further split into an assortment of sub-classes, each offering a different style of play. In addition, characters can choose one of several player races, and can begin from one of four starting cities.
Gameplay itself is extremely varied; many styles are catered for: you can solo, group with up to six other players or raid (up to four groups), depending on your inclination, and of course the time you have available.
As for quests - the name of the game - there are thousands of these built into the game. None are required for progression, and you can choose to ignore these completely if you wish, and choose your own path.
Perhaps the element that makes Everquest II stand apart from the competition is the 'mentoring' system. This gives high-level veteran players the ability to voluntarily reduce their level to that of lower-level characters: this ability can be used to assist novice players, re-visit game content that a player character may have 'outgrown,' and - perhaps most importantly of all - it removes the 'you're too big for me to play with' problem completely.
In Rise Of Kunark, Everquest II has evolved into a truly beautiful fantasy world.
The game should come with a health warning - it is seriously addictive, but in this player's opinion it's worth every penny.

Fun:
Well this has been worth waiting for ive played EQ2 for some time but this is a real great price and you get all the games and add-ons in one box, what more do you need. Im sure you will be hooked like me and my wife, we both play this side by side and the game play and quests are for all age groups, young or old. Its smooth fast scroling game play and we have the basic requirements on our comps to play this. So many lands to explore and people to meet, you can fight, harvest, do tradeskill allways something to do. And with a 30 day free trial you cant go wrong, well gotta go back and play im a level 42 Conjury and enjoying every minute maybe see you in game and hey were in our 50s so age dont matter have fun people.

Fun:
As a long time WoW player I scuffed EQ and EQ2 as lesser games not worth my time but they had a free trial on the website and I decided to have a look. After playing this for 2 days...well to be honest it was a shock, EQ2 as it is now has so much more depth than any other MMORPG I have played to date. Its simply fantastic and I highly recomend it to anyone looking for a more adult orientad game. 5/5 All the way.

One MMORPG to rule them all?
At the risk of starting a WoW / EQ / LOTR war, I'd like to say that Everquest II is, for me, the best online role-playing game out there. Read more
