What zone do you feel is the most stunning? Or, if u got a new gaming rig what zone would you want to check out first?
Parts of Veeshan are the most beautiful, IMO. However, I see something beautiful in game nearly every day. Sunrises, sunsets and moonrises are some of my favorites.
EQ II has better scenary than most MMOs I have played in the past. Some scenary in other MMOs are either dull looking, or the colors are so saturated I get a headache. EQ II is just right.
New Tunaria and the Throne of New Tunaria (instance). This zone never got much use back in the day and would be the perfect candidate to be reused as a new "Fabled" area. Return to Felwithe.
Oh wow, how to even answer this one. There've been so many scenic and momentous areas in the game that I don't think I could ever pick just one. There's something oddly beautiful about the giant black hole that is present in the Void. New Tunaria is pretty majestic. I was completely awestruck the first time I resdiscovered the old Combine city in Kunark. Timorous Deep has beautiful geography. The Village of Shin is marvelous for its Asian influences, as are all the bamboo forests surrounding Hua Mein village in the Sundered Frontier. I could easily list something magnificent about just about every area in the game.
I absolutely love Lesser Faydark. I just wish that they hadn't made all the Brownies and Satyrs redundant.
I have to admit that I'm not that far into the game but I must say that I think everything I see is visually stunning.
Honestly, I love Greater Faydark as a whole. Kelethin is a beautiful tree top city, though maybe I'm biased due to my love of Fae.
I love The Conservatory, Lesser Faydark, and is it weird to say Obol Plains and Eidolon Jungle? Something about the afterlife is so mystical. Also some of the Grotto zones and Cobalt Scar. They have nice color schemes.
For me it is the caves, yes the newbie area off queynos harbor. I love the look and atmosphere of that place. I hope one day they extend it, make a tunnel running off it into some high level zone, that would be awesome.
Crank up settings and stroll through the vestigial observatory, i mean its just a treat for the eyes, specifically the area of the final boss.
New Tunaria shows the potential of EQ2 graphically/artistically. Sadly today’s expansions have zones with pretty terrible art design/textures. Even worse bad designs from the past are reused. I wish they visited New Tunaria and in more depth. Village of Shin was pretty good as well. Kylong Plains is probably one of the better larger zones in the game. I really did not like the direction they went with Chains of Eternity. I get it we are in the etherverse but the palette/textures were so similar and ugly. Blood of Luclin could have been so much better if Daybreak/Darkpaw had more resources. Again if you never ventured into New Tunaria go there and look at the art/textures then zone into The Blinding. It’s a huge difference!!
Have you done the Swords of Destiny timeline AT level? Mentoring doesn't count. Finish that timeline then decide you don't spend enough time in NT
