Ok, I'm deciding between playing Everquest II or WoW. I've played a little bit of both. Nothing too in-depth though. I played and EQ2 character to lvl 20 and a WoW character to lvl 10.
Coming from playing EQ1 for 4+ years, the best thing I like about both games is that you don't have to have a full specialized group to do things like you had to in EQ1, so you can jump in for a few hours and play. You don't have to play all damn day to do interesting stuff.
I guess what I'm really asking about is the mid- and end-game. Which MMO better supports the idea of getting a couple people in a group to go do some questing or something, as opposed to spending an hour to get a full specialized group and be stuck for the next 5 hours or so in that group.
I'm kind of partial to EQ2's look and questing system, but I don't know too much about the mid- and end-games for both EQ2 and WoW. So which one would be better?

-which one to get? EQ2 or WoW

I saw that Eve online had a free 14 day trial and I signed up for it. Let me just say that this is an awesome MMO. I space themed, but that's fine with me. I really enjoy how open-ended it is. You all should give it a shot. www.eve-online.com Thanks again for all of the opinions/suggestions.

You do have a very valid point. I'm enjoying Eve Online right now because I'm doing nothing but kill missions, but I'm starting to see how it will get old really fast. I still have 1 more week left on my free 14-day account, but I'm not really sure if I want to continue playing. I guess it hooked me initially, but I'm starting to realize the "real" game. That, and it isn't too much fun playing by yourself.
Damn, I thought I had a really good find here too, but I can see it will end up like all other MMO's I've played: Play for a few months doing the same thing over and over again, get bored, uninstall, and find some other MMO to play.
