> [@Jophiel](#): > > ES:O isn’t F2P though… yet 😉 Oh, my bad. I thought it had a free trial for some reason. It’s basically Skyblivion with slightly improved combat, linear gameplay, and 10,000 Dovahkiins/Neravarines/Mua’Dibs all saving the same world from some ancient evil. The lore, like the dungeons, are instanced and self-contained, and the other players both exist and don’t – an uncomfortable situation. I’d wait for it to go free/cheap. It’s not a bad game, it’s just rather soulless. ---

> [@Knowed\_Out](#): > > DAOC attracted players from EQ because they didn’t have things everybody hated like hell levels, stranded corpses, or LOADING PLEASE WAIT zone transfers. Then along came WoW… DAoC also had less schizophrenic ambiance as well. Unfortunately, when I was playing it, it didn’t really have enough content to keep things interesting, and I ended up just camping places for XP, and I found myself thinking “I could just go back to EQ and do this with people I know.” so I did.
