In another interview, they talked about how the resting bonus works. Currently, when you are in main city or inn, you accumulate a "resting bonus". This happens if you are logged in (or you log out while in the city or inn). The idea is that you can log out for 8 hours, come back later and get double XP for a while... so that you can catch up to your friends who have been playing all that time.However, it wasn't intended that way. Originally Blizzard gave players an XP Penalty to players the longer they played to prevent them from leveling too quickly. They realized that this was harming the player rather than helping, so they reversed it and implemented the XP boost instead! In the end, they said, the results were the same. This was one of the most fascinating game decisions I have seen in WoW, and makes a lot of sense. That's just the kind of thing that puts players first.2) Everquest 2 has better graphics, polygon count, and  more powerful graphics engine. However, World of Warcraft has the better artists. WoW has less polygons, but the the artists did a fantastic job of making things colorful and bringing everything to life.Sometimes less is more.-The Le</blockquote>
