    Offers an interesting combination of an established universe with a different game genre.

    With multiplayer significantly less user-friendly than in other titles and a lame single-player mode, LoE falls well short of the genre's top dogs. [Feb 2004, p.111]

    Sports richly detailed environments, a solid soundtrack and gameplay. However, this game is a somewhat typical foray into the RTS genre.

    Lords of EverQuest has too many problems to be enjoyed by anyone except EverQuest fanatics taking a break from roleplaying.
  5. Computer Gaming World

    The game is aesthetically stuck in the past, the single-player campaign is a typical helping of fantasy storytelling, and the multiplayer experience feels way too familiar. [Mar 2004, p.76]

    This is the first game I've reviewed where I cannot justify buying this game to anyone-and coming from a hardcore EQ player, that's a tough thing to do.

    One of the most standard, bland, monotonous, poorly done, and "easy money on paper" titles I've seen in quite some time.

    More than a Warcraft knock-off. A real treat and a new look at the way RTS's will be played.
