Graphics shouldn't be a problem unless you're a huge graphic nazi. They really aren't that bad. It isn't grindy 1-50 and I've heard it stays ungrindy until 100 or 115+. The cap atm is 50, it will be raised to 70 in a week and when we catch up to other versions it will eventually reach 130.

It was awhile before they added shadow in the other versions, what makes you think they will add it so fast to NA version?

WoW is realising huge expansions every 2 or 3 years and ppl cap it in a 1-7 days
At least they are releasing small updates fast, most games intruduce new updates every 6months - 12 months. @_@

You can't hit cap in 3-4 days in most games...they are doing a horrible job at releasing content, that can be seen in the fact that the large majority of the players have become inactive. That isn't true with WoW. Why? WoW actually gives you something to do when you hit cap.

Yeah, grind for Gear and PVP, which all other games have done too...WoW didn't invent that system in many regards.
Also, almost all MMO's have this empty feeling in the end, just because SUN chose to give out the mass content faster by flunking grind doesn't mean squat, it all depends on the player.

For one, I'm actually happy I get to play a game where I don't have to spend an entire 8hr/day/month just so I can get to another zone only to find out I need to spend another week grinding in the 'Gardens of Boredom' right outside the 'Spooky but Cool Looking Castle'.
I would like to enjoy a game where my life-force isn't sucked out of me for once...

Shutup.

You people complain when it takes a month of nonstop grinding to reach the level cap in a game, then when a game comes along where the level cap is reached in a matter of weeks, you complain about that!



Grinding is part of MMOs. The point is to gradually progress through new content, not rush through it all in three days and then be bored. That's the reason P2P games are typically thought to be better, by forcing players to pay monthly subscriptions they have to have enough content to gradually ease players into end-game to sustain the player base for extended periods of time.

No one actually wants MMOs where the end is reached in a couple days or a week.

Yes.

Not necessarily true. A lot of people play high rate private servers so they can reach end game content. I wouldn't mind a game with a reachable level cap as long as that didn't actually mean the end. PvP is fun but unless its to the level of guild wars it isn't enough. There has to be something else you can achieve. So far it seems only P2P games have begun to master that.

one thing i dont get, what is actual end game content? its preaty much all games hawe the same end game, like ewery1 belowed wow, with so cool end game content which is... lets see, hit max lvl, then grind for gear since u cant do anything else, same time max ur profesions, well u can do acheawements if u want, then after geting uber gear u can pvp. sry but is there anything i mised? now other games, either takes long to lvl up, but end game still the same, or u can lvl fast still with same end, barely any game escapes that. well ye, games like wow hawe lots of content in them, so tahts whats get occupied most of gamers, or they just cant live without that game(like without drugs).

so plz tell me what is end game content in p2p games u talk about? most of them just hawe biger maps, more q, profesions or something like that, but nothing that u actualy cant do if u arent already max lvl

Take into consideration the game isnt fully realeased yet for a lvl cap of 50 isnt the highest youll be able to get, and there still plenty of grind after 50 you have to grind the **** outts area conquest and you have to grind the **** outta dungeons to get stones for upgrading, or did you just blitz to lvl 50 and not take into consideration how to get all +9 gear etc and complete the are conquest.

and what a month after offical release they added another 20 lvl's of area conquest/quest/dungeons and towns into the game thats not bad at all tbh.


i still prefer eve cause it got that cool 90 deg learning curve that keeps nabs out.
