One Shots: The bay of Everfrost

While the Everfrost region in EverQuest II is largely considered to be nothing more than a desolate, frozen wasteland full of monsters intent on making a meal of brave adventurers, there are still moments of frosted beauty to behold. One such example is this gorgeous image sent in to us by Ratwarlock (aka Araxes on the Antonia Bayle server) who sent this in along with the following note. EverQuest II is an astoundingly beautiful game and by-and-large the screenshots on the web don't do it justice - not by a long shot. So here are a few screenshots from my collection that I have taken personally in-game, and archive on my blog and the SOE EQ2 official boards every so often. I love sharing them with players who may not have seen the game in quite this light! ...This is a shot of the Everfrost bay at dawn. Everfrost has been in-game since 2004 and was one of the two original "end-game" zones.

While you're traveling this weekend, why not take a moment to stop and show off the world around you? We love to see reader-submitted landscapes that show off game design. (Or, sometimes just how awesome your computer is to be able to render it all.) Just send them to us here at oneshots AT massively DOT com along with your name, the name of the game, and a quick description. We'll post them out here for people to snag and make into their desktop backgrounds, and give you the credit for the great catch.
