bah, verant has been money sucking vampires ever since they started. i think theyve invested more money into their marketing department than the game itself. think of the stormhammer server, the server they were trying to sell for $50 a month. they promised constant gm events, some online player map tracking device, personal items and such (ive talked to a few suckers who fell for it, and they said theres nothing like that on there, just a bunch of gms sitting around doing nothing). I gave me minimal monthly cost to them for close to 2 years, plus the cost of the game itself. i refuse to pay another cent more for a nerd form of heroin. plus, eq2 is just some graphically enhanced version of the same crappy game. you'd think they would develop a new world, new lands or something.
