Lots of potential

This game has a lot of potential. Soloing can be a lot of fun and the Public Quests are tons of fun. The PVP in this game is done well and there are a lot of cool ideas.

However, even without all the performance issues like disconnecting, lag, and an overall sluggish feel, it doesn't feel well put together. There isn't a whole lot of content and it never gives you any of those awe inspiring situations that are so much fun in WoW. The zones seem pretty bland and you just want to avoid the main cities.

As far as PVE goes, its not entirely engaging. I never felt like I was getting a whole lot out of leveling and quest rewards were very rewarding. Also, the quests didn't really feel that important and they were kind of repetitive, just like the zones.

That being said, I would actually like to see this game succeed and have them fix the problems with it. There are a lot of cool ideas that just need to be revised to meet their full potential.
