EQ Next: Best of show at E3!
 
EQ next wins Best of show award from MMORPG.com:

Quote:
Say what? You thought this one wasn’t at E3? Well, really... it wasn’t in any official capacity. But we were treated to an early look at what SOE has planned for the game’s unveiling in August and we were quite simply blown away by every little detail we saw. This is going to sound like a cop-out, but we can't say why we are choosing EQN as our Best of Show because we've been sworn to secrecy until the big debut in August. What we can say is that we saw grand plans for the world's largest sandbox and it was more than enough to stand head and shoulders above any game we saw at E3. When Sony pulls back the curtain later this summer, you will not be disappointed. EverQuest Next is this year's E3 Best of Show, and in just a couple months you'll all understand why. We promise.

Spin and rhetoric. That's all I'm gonna say.

This may be a reason why EQNext may indeed be nice:

"If there is anything the EverQuest franchise is known for, it's for the quests. Lots of quests."

Say, wat?

EverQuest and other MMORPG's are supposed to be about saving the world and vanquishing evil. But since you share a world with hundreds of other people with their own desires, said evil always has to reappear a few minutes later. So its less like being a fantasy adventurer and more like being a social worker.

EQ2 had a ton of quests, but EQ1 did not have a ton or if they did it was not easy to find them.

I'm not really sure what game you played but Everquest has the most quests I've ever encountered in any MMO. Just because the NPC's don't have giant !'s over their head doesn't mean they don't have a quest...

Considering whenever the WoW vs EQ comes up someone inevitably says "Ugh, all you do in WoW is run around by yourself doing stupid quests to level, in EQ you have to group up and grind exp and build a community." I would make the claim that EQ is not known for quests comparatively.

EQ def has some of the more involved quests with the epic weapons and high end dungeon keys though.

Will wait for the reveal to pass judgement.

I've never trusted mmorpg.com's opinion on anything. In general those guy kind of suck.

Yeah, the author is clearly not experienced with classic Everquest. I laughed at some of the lines.
