I'm hearing they may release it on DVD ROM. 10 is alot. From everything i've read according to the " Insiders " EQ2 blows WoW away. The disadvantage to WoW is gunna be how many growing pains they have. When EQ1 came out it was a good couple months before we could play it full time without distraction. EQ2 will most likey be prepared for that. Thats probably he reason it keeps getting pushed back. I hear WoW's beta is up already. I hope WoW doesnt rush there product to get ahead of EQ2. They could have the potential for disaster if they do so. Could be nonstop new patches for months, where as SOE is probably testing there game out right now and fixing all the bugs atm. Which is most likely the reasoning behing the July realease date i hear so much about now.
I've read both FAQ's on both games. I've seen all the SS's for the games as well. Believe it or not. I was going to play WoW because i was tired of EQ 1, but after reading everything. I think i'm gunna try EQ2. Its much more intresting. Guild houses will rule!
For those that plan on playing WOW. Trust me, it will be a pain to play the game for the first few months. I think Buzzkill can back me up on this if he played EQ1 when it first came out.
