Default Which game has the best lore.

Wow

Or

EQ.

Imho. Eq has better lore and cooler zones. WoW has some good characters.

EQ's lore is cool. WoW has some cool design but the lore is really boring to me. EQ's lore is like, "naive" in that early DnD way but in a way that doesn't really hinder it at all, if anything it makes it shine more.

WoW's lore continued (and continues) to get worse, I dunno about EQ's.

EQ is way better, mainly because it was drafted specifically to be the lore for a new mmo. WoW is just the lore from the warcraft RTS series slapped into an mmo, which always turned me off.

I would like to read some cool books written for the EQ series. They could really get deep into Xolous lore or Luclin and Drinal (vampire and werewolf stuff). And with its own more high fantasy magical take rather than IRL vampire lore or science vampires. Sorta mixed in with them manipulating and fighting the Combine.
