Not sure how we missed this, but Massively posted their sneak preview of the Altar of Malice expansion on October 14th.
From MJ Guthrie on Massively.com:
When EverQuest II’s next expansion, Altar of Malice, was announced at SOE Live in August, we heard about upcoming features, perused concept drawings, and even saw some screenshots. As exciting as all that can be, nothing compares to actually getting in the game and seeing the living breathing world of Norrath. And that’s exactly what I got to do last week on a tour with Senior Producer Holly Longdale and Creative Director Akil Hooper.
While we have to wait a bit longer to hear more about the Aerakyn (the new winged dragonkind race) and what special goodies will be included in the collector’s edition, the tour of the zones allowed me to bask in the beauty of the artwork while weaving through dinosaurs, pygmies, and my favorite-yet-long-lost starting zone. And it definitely made me even more excited for the upcoming release of Altar of Malice!
Check out the extensively detailed article (with tons of screenshots) at Massively.com!
I do’t think you guys missed it, probably more likely EQWire was overlooked intentionally for having an opinion regarding some unfavorable SOE decisions.
Silence: I believe his article comment was referring to not noticing the article when it released 🙂
Feldon: MMORPG’s preview just went up yesterday:
