Come back to this game! if you left it, if not, go out and get a copy!!
NOW though, most of that has been rectified, and the game could be a top contender on the MMO market today, Or could have been, if Mythic didn't create so many damned servers at the beginning.
Graphically speaking, this game is pretty, not Aion or AOC pretty, but it looks good and has some solid details. Its also not to rough on weaker PC's so most people should be able to play it on higher settings. Obviously Mythic had the people in mind in that department.
The gameplay, is fairly standard with most MMO's, but with a few key exceptions. Yes you have your run of the mill kill this, fetch that, report to him quests, but theres more too it than that. Public Quest, Or PQ's are a lot of fun if you run into people that are playing them. They're fairly interesting and give you solid piece of loot if you complete it and are a key contributer. The game keeps count of how you contribute, whether you heal, DPS, or capture stuff, it will all factor in. Another thing is how PvP oriented this game is. If your a fan of this, its ALOT of fun. Defending points of interests, Keeps, and even your main city is hectic, but very enjoyable. Attacking is coordinated and fun, and when you capture that Keep you've been going at for an hour, the feeling is amazing. This causes the PvE to suffer, although it is solid and will still keep you from grinding, its just not that interesting. Since i am not at End game yet I cant tell you how it is, although from recent updates, the dungeons are numerous and the loot is plentiful.
If you're a person more into PvE, then maybe this game isnt for you, but if you like PvP, being around people and some nice innovations, you should do yourselves all a favour, and come back, or purchase the game, because it is an up and comer. :)
