Great game, but some problems. review fowling a character and explaining the bad and good parts.
After a relatively tedious basic controls lesson, a NPC comes it to view with the abused "!" in a bubble representing a quest opportunity. I click on her a she responds with "I've just found some Ravine Spider in my yard. My little helpers are trying to defeat them. However, I'm very worried about them. They could get hurt! Can you do me a favor? They are just behind the fence! Please!". I kill the spiders and boss and am rewarded with a white horse and a blessing increasing my attributes for 36 hours.
Several (hundred) fights later and I've reached L.V 10, now time for my second class. I board the airship and reach the main city in seconds, considerably quicker than the ships in world of warcraft. Now one of the best features of the game kicks in. As a mage my character use's the "Mana" pool as do druids, wardens, priests and , strangely, knights. warriors use "Rage", rouges use "Energy" and scouts use "Ammunition".
Articles I've read all tell me to use one of the different pools, but I decide to chose druid, and, strangely enough, I don't run out of Mana almost instantly (even now despite being a L.V 15 druid).
Now we skip to last Saturday. I reach L.V 15 druid and now I have a new opportunity, I can trade some of my hard earned resources and gold for a brand new "elite skill". Despite the name it isn't that great, but it is still quite nice to have.
