At that time, the ESRB rating (rated before the game was released) of
EQ was "Teen", the ESRBi rating (rated after release) was "M".
Presumably, two different raters, and one of them actually played a
"dark" race. Now, both ratings are "Teen". I have no idea why or how
the ESRBi rating got changed.
