"The Shadow Odyssey" is an expansion pack for Sony's smashing hit, EverQuest II. This expansion pack is an all-in-one compilation of all the official game content released so far. The game includes the original EverQuest II, plus Desert of Flames, Kingdom of Sky, Echoes of Faydwer and Rise of Kunark. Shadows of Odyssey is not just a bundled pack; the game includes 20 new zones with new quests and objects. The new equipment is necessary for players to level in the new zones, but it is not hard for newbies to start on them either. This is made by a very specific balance for new and veteran players, so this expansion pack is made for everyone. The new quests and challenges are very different from the previous packages. Puzzles substitute brute force in many quests, making them challenging and entertaining. Overall, the package is very good, and it is a perfect choice for veterans of the game, as well as for new players. In fact newbies will enjoy an all-in-one package for a fairly reasonable price, but try the game first and see if you like it.
