Oh yeah XI keeps escaping me cause I keep forgetting it exists, and I had no clue it had login rewards.
EQ2 has been free for a long time last I checked.

EQ2 is free, but severely limited. You have to sub to be able to do the high end content as you're limited to a maximum rarity level on gear. Unless you keep up with expansions, you're always two behind. The veteran reward clock also doesn't tick. Subbing also gets you 500 of their cash shop currency every month.

If none of this matters, it's just a nice place to hang out and play around with things like housing.

I brought this game up as they were the first to really work on incentives to stay subscribed while also making it fairly easy for people to try it out. Spreading the content out as XIV does might be a drag for some, but it works out better for everyone, as there's seldom any kind of dead time, as there was in the old expansion model.
