I see, in the real world I chat and move and have friends and "stuff" so therefore the real world is just like Guild Wars and WoW right?.... Wrong.

The attributes you list above are common for ALL MMORPG's and nearly all RPG PBBG's. That does not compare one game to another, it only classifies it as the same type of game. A rip is a game that uses the same model, similar or exact graphics and images, the same design structure, etc...

According to you, every game ever made is a rip because it may share one or two characteristics. There is a difference between game type or classification, and a clone.

When you see a new cartoon do you say it's just like every other cartoon in the world because it's animated? Or does the cartoon have different characters, plots, objectives, heroes, genre, etc... etc... etc... One does not say that Scooby Doo is just like Voltron because they are both animated. You see the point?

AQworlds is nothing at all like guild wars or WoW, AQworlds is only loosely classified as the same type of game but as a RPG PBBG. I hope this will help you to understand game types and classifications.

Relating to the game, I noticed that it requires port access to two ports that are commonly closed at public locations. In my opinion, the overwhelming benefit of PBBG's over MMORPG's is that they are portable and can be played from any location. Games like Runescape, Pardus, Fallensword, and Fragoria do not utilize ports that are commonly closed so they can be enjoyed from nearly any location like school, work, libraries, cyber cafes, and on notebooks that plug into various free or paid wifi providers throughout a city (this is how I test the portability of PBBG's where I live). So ignoring how fun (or not) the game may actually be, I think that the devs have really missed the entire point of the attraction to PBBG's or they would have used more common ports.
