    This was my first experience with a MMORPG. I find this very boring. It's also kind of hard to figure things out. The fighting (so far for me) is completely lame. And why do RPG games always have to start a person out at level one? Always start out a complete wimp? Not fun.

    This has been a lot of fun for me... I've played approx. 40+ hrs. I have three different characters... There is a lot of room for team work on quests but I have found most people have been unwilling to join up to complete the more difficult quests...
    Game play has been Great ... I Highly Recommend this download
