Ignore anyone making excuses for this game due to their love of the Warhammer brand. This game is awful....the graphics engine is inferior to MMO's that have been out for years (even on highest display settings). The quests are typical...the UI standard; the whole experience just a rehash of other titles that are technically superior. Despite the fascinating idea of realm play and the heavy focus on PvP, the game really just feels like a simple retread but does not break any significant new ground (quite possibly the biggest failure of all). When a new MMO comes out and does nothing new of significance (whether graphically, character development etc.), then it's failed to move the bar. There are so many better titles out there: WoW, Lotro, Eve Online, City of Heroes. Those games (despite their differences) have content and scope (or in Eve's case, gaming flexibility). This game fails to grasp either. The whole game was a huge dissapointment. It lacks character and story....find yourself a better MMO.
