I feel that WAR is a great MMO in my opinion. At first, probably like everyone else, I compared every nook and cranny to World of Warcraft. While doing that I found myself getting frustrated because it wasn't like WoW. Which, after a few hours I realized was totally stupid. Its a different game than WoW, so I started taking it that way and I started to enjoy it. I am hearing a lot of complaints about bugs and ect, but if you remember when Burning Crusade came out, it was freaking HORRIBLE, and that company already had a huge base of players on their MMO for over 3 years, and still had worse problems. And you will see that with Lich King too. Aside from that, this game is just a lot of fun. The public quests are great, it helps out a lot and everyone seems to put their share in. My only gripe is the graphics. It seems like they didn't put all they could into it. WoW's character models and animations(spells, ect) blow this one out of the water. Other than that, I believe this game will challenge WoW in time. But I doubt it will take it over. I'm willing to pay my monthly payments for both because I can get away from each game and go back to the other. I am enjoying the PVE in Warhammer a lot more than WoW, and I am a huge PVPer in WoW, so for me this game is a total hit.
