Hrmmm, was just reading some of the
lore for EQ2. Two things I noticed.
1. I don't give a shit about lore. Probably because almost every piece of lore I've ever read is just utter crap. Fourth rate shit that wouldn't cut it in a fantasy/sci-fi novel.
2. Companies need to hire people who have a grasp on how to write fiction. There are enough dialogue modifiers on that one page to drown an English professor.
Anyway, link provided above in case lore blows your hair back.
Edit: Just for some fun, here's some of the aformentioned above modifiers (this is all from ONE PAGE OF DIALOGUE):
