Check out the WoW gameplay movies compared to the EQ2 gameplay movies. In the WoW ones, there are dozens of characters on the screen and motion is fluid. In the EQ2 E3 trailer (which is twice the size of the WoW one, by the way) there are less than 10 characters in view at any point, and it is choppy as hell. Expect this to be the case in-game as well, just as it was with Luclin models on in a raid environment. SOE simply cannot design a tolerable graphics engine -- that combined with the fact that they are trying to use what looks like Poser models, is goign to lead to an incredibly laggy monotonous game. Even if WoW is crap, EQ2 will be crap on an exponentially higher level.
