My roommate at the time EQ 2 launched had a much better computer over mine and had specs that could easily handle what was printed as necessary for the game. And its performance on launch day was absolute balls. It was horrid. He returned it within hours on launch day telling the Gamestop employee that the account code was reading as having been previously used and got a full refund which he put towards a purchase of WoW on release.
My computer at the time had been upgraded as I had played EQ, then DAoC, and then City of Heroes & Planetside, and it was in good shape for other games. The performance issues reported with EQ2 and it being a massive resource hog killed my interest. Then World of Warcraft released and it ate my soul.
