    Cool, English, French, and German. Now what about all the other languages? You could've put it in Chinese, or some of the ingame languages, like TikTok, or really anything from http://eq2.wikia.com/wiki/Languages ah well maybe next time.:rolleyes:

    I prefer gnomish. But since they fired all the exotic experts, I doubt they have one speaking real languages anymore.

    They could do Draconic, but then....well, you can only read it if you've completed Speak as a Dragon :D

    hehe....

    Purchase confirmation in Droag-speak:

    "He buy quietly,
    You'll buy screaming...."

    Hmm three hours to add the Rum Cellar campaign that apparently can be run in under 45 min. Sheesh, so I lose 180 min of playtime for a 45 min dungeon...not liking this. :p

    Maybe it's the usual way for Daybreak to sell their games.. But I cannot think of any reason (besides bad planning) why you would not sell xpacs in advance. This is just more potential for things to go wrong because of too many things happening at the same time.

    Edit: Just noticed that on the Daybreak site, ALLACCESS subs are $2 up compared to the SoE site.

    I'm seeing the same prices as I have since all subs became all-access. $14.99, $12.99, $11.99, $9.99.
