Game InformerCertainly a great addition to the EQ universe, but falls short of the "Scars of Velious" expansion, which is still the best in the series simply because it offered so much content. [Jan 2003, p.118]
-
PC GamerThis expansion has depth, it's incredibly challenging, and it highlights superlative production values in all the areas you'd expect, and even in some you wouldn't. [Feb 2003, p.83]
-
While not offering much for players below level 46, The Planes of Power, with its smorgasbord of content, is a very good expansion pack for higher-level players as well as veterans who have been around since the beginning.
-
It has not only breathed new aspirations into the already high level characters, it has given the up and coming characters a place to look forward to.
-
The expansion really leans toward cooperative play. Interacting with other players is still viable and almost necessary to move along in the quest.
-
Computer Games MagazineAn expansion that is about as good as it gets for the core community. [Feb 2003, p.67]
-
Mostly geared toward EverQuest's dedicated, hard-core following.
-
A solid addition to the world of EverQuest, but it's steep level requirements will keep a good majority of the players in the game from taking full advantage of the expansion.
-
Computer Gaming WorldOffers the most accessible, best-looking EverQuest yet, but it's still getting awfully dated, both in looks and gameplay mechanics. [Feb 2003, p.77]
-
If you are an "Everquest" regular, you'll have a hard time not buying the latest and greatest.
