EOTN has a more epic feel to it albeit the storyline is a bit short. The dungeons and the many side quests do make up for it though. Also, you get heroes in this campaign which are quite awesome. They can be customized skill wise, stick them with new items and you can even alter their armor. The graphics really shine here as well. They immerse you right into it and will continue to dazzle you many months after your purchase.

Factions offers far more skills. A much better option if you wish to go in the direction of PvP. The storyline is short and at times can get a bit tedious and boring. Factions has AB, Alliance Battles. Not my cup a tea but some people rather like it.

They both have something to offer and it really depends on what you are looking for. I would recommend EOTN to you, as it has a lot more to offer for your buck.

AB thumbs up

hero's FTL <- ruined the game for me

Factions has new professions, new skills, and ab
Eotn has Heros, Ursan...thats about it.

You can beat EotN in 2 days, and its no fun to beat it again. So i'd definately buy factions.

Snograt · Jul 13, 2008, 08:00 PM // 20:00

I would have to plump for EotN, purely for Ursan and the sad fct that you're not going to get into an elite-area group without it.

Save up for Factions and NF though - it's well worth having the full effect that all 3 chapters plus the exp[ansion brings.

like snoggy said i would go for EotN simply for the sad fact that you need UB to enter elite-areas with a PUG. Also its not really easy to find a good non-ursan group.

EotN is the way to go for now. Get Factions later.
