does it run in OSX? can't seem to find the info on it. I don't want to run bootcamp, but some friends are saying I should try this game.
 
Everquest II on Mac

I have Everquest II running in an XP Pro x64 Virtual Machine, using Parallels.

It runs great, but I'm still looking for a way to run it on OS X without the VM.
 
It runs well in a VM environment?? Ooooh sweet. I figured it would just suck completely and have been booting into windows on my Mac Pro. Good to know.
 
Wow, I'd really love to know what hardware you're running that it runs well in a VM. I'm on a mid '07 MBP and EQ2 runs ok in Boot Camp, but as far as VMWare goes: the graphics don't even work, let alone the game run at playable speed.

How did you get your mouse under control? Do you use use your VM in full screen? When I try it in Coherence or Windowed mode the mouse view spins around and is basically unusable. FPS seem fine though so I have hope!
