Topic: Adventures in EverQuest 2
A while back Sony had the good sense to send me an invitation back to play Vanguard for a free month, which enjoying the game, I quickly snapped up and leaped forth into my old account. Vanguard is still a lot of fun, there is no doubt, but the unintended side effect of this return, was a renewal of my great love of EverQuest II. The free time quickly converted to a station pass and EQ2 has returned to prominence it once held over my gaming time. It has once again become the focal point. Not to mention caused me to go out and purchase the last expansion, The Shadow Odyssey.
It is nice to be back with my old friends, characters I haven't played in some months. It is also nice to be playing again with the characters I created last time I was drawn back in last year. A now 31st level Necromancer and a 27th level Shadow Knight. Good times. I've been trying to explore more of the low level content that wasn't around when I went through with my initial characters back near launch. It's interesting to play through Timorous Deep and ButcherBlock Mountains, Neriak and Darklight Wood. The above picture is from a recent adventure that left me hunting under the bay of the Nektulos Forest for some damn fish or other that doesn't re-spawn in nearly great enough numbers to satisfy the quest I was on. Such is the way of things sometimes.
Anyway, while I was wondering around down there, I ran across the pictured building on the bottom of the sea. Not sure what it is, but it was interesting to see things down there. Guess the whole diving thing is a holdover from my days playing Morrowind and using the ring that would give my character an unlimited amount of time underwater to explore. Exploration is really a big part of my enjoyment of these games anyway. I love to see the world and see what the developers have hidden just waiting to be found by the intrepid adventurer.
