It’s official. The servers went live about 3:30 p.m. central time today. I’m about to hop in and see if I can get into the game along with the hordes of others wanting to see the Sarnak for the first time. We’ll see how server stability is tonight. 
EverQuest II – Rise of Kunark is now live on all U.S. servers. The sum of many months of hard work by dozens of people on multiple teams comes to fruition today with the release of the fourth expansion to EverQuest II. On behalf of the entire team here at SOE, we would like to welcome you to the Rise of Kunark! Thank you for your patience during the expansion downtime today.
Look for an announcement regarding the international servers shortly.
I’ll definitely be writing up my own reactions and thoughts on the expansion probably next week after I’ve had a chance to play with it for a bit. But for now it kinda feels like Christmas morning hehe.

Hmm… all these posts of yours are making me think I should drop WoW for a while and switch to EQII.

Hey Keira - especially if you’ve never tried EQII, I would definitely recommend trying at least a free trial to see what you think.
If you used to play it and left (back in the 2004-2005 era especially), I’d also recommend giving it a look. A LOT has changed since then.

Hokay, you’ve sold me
I haven’t played EQ before, but I have heard friends rave about it, and EQII seems like a good time to find out what it’s all about

Great! You’ll have to let me know what you think Keira. And if you start on the Kithicor server, look me up as Sethvir or Khardamon.

Yeah, I would definitely try some of the newer areas for your introduction to the game as well. Echoes of Fadywer has a great starting zone and from everything I hear RoK is definitely an improvement as well.
