I caved and finally jumped in. I've had my eye on this one for awhile and almost got it at a higher price point. Being on steam now and at the same price as a WoW expansion I figured why not.


Trying to keep my review brief because there is a lot to say. I'd say if you are going in and wanting anything close to a complete MMO experience just wait it our for a couple more years. If you are willing to deal with a very bare bones feature status and enjoy the budding community it's not so bad.

The main quest line ends at level 8 and your max is level 25 in the current version. So after the quests end its a big open sandbox. Crafting, mob grinding, repeatable commission missions, and crate running between towns are your main gameplay loops.

Right now most of the content comes from the community. Cities can go to war with one another, and little rivalries form between towns/guilds. There is PVP but it's mostly ganking and not real gameplay based fights yet.


TL;DR

Come in with a mindset that you are a tester, and getting a very early MMO experience that is very grindy, but has a fun and plentiful community and you'll have a good time.

Looking for a polished exp, wait it out a bit
