If I was asked to pick out the single, most important aspect of EverQuest 2, I would have to pick the quest system. After all, with a name like EverQuest 2, one would expect lots of quests. And one would not be disappointed, there are literally hundreds of quests to do at the lower levels, with every sign that this will continue right throughout the game. They range from the go there, do this or visit him type quests, to the more in-depth storyline quests.
