Hello, I have been gone several years from EQ2. I have tried unsuccessfully to locate my old account and character without luck so I started a new character in the "Play Free" option. this appears to be browser based. Is the old game still in effect where it can be downloaded and played?
Thanks.
Current Games: WOW, EVE Online

EQ II is still going and has a lot of content in it. EQNext is not really an EQ title per se, so if you want the feel of EQ the original and EQ II are what you have for the foreseeable future.
EQII has an expansion coming out soon I believe, and I think they even went back to the old multi-stat system so the game has more complexity again as far as itemization is concerned.
expansion releases November 25

When Altar of Malice launches, Chains of Eternity will be bundled into the F2P base game
and Tears of Veeshan will be included with purchase of Altar of Malice.
