I was pleasantly surprised...
I put the learning curve a little high only because it was a little hard to figure out which buttons did what. Thankfully, I could draw from my experience with WoW and Final Fantasy Online.
I was really impressed with the variablity of the character creation. You can really make you're avatar your own creation given the options.
Some of the graphics were glitchy and I was a little disappointed with the random name generator...some of the results were a little far fetched I feel.
All in all...play the demo...then draw your own conclusion...
