Default Is it just me?

Or does this look like the most boring MMO ever?

Seriously, why is the combat so slow?

I know its Final Fantasy and all but jeez, it just looks rediculous, I just watched a beta video on youtube of a guy killing a rat and it literally takes him like a minute lol.

I havn't really been following this game so havn't had a chance to see the actual gameplay until now, but looks really dissapointing to me :/

This is just my opinoin of course I'm sure some of you don't mind the slow combat I just wish they speeded it up :S

Combat has actually been sped up more and more over the past 3 phases of beta to the point that it is garbage in Phase 3 because you lose the strategic element it had well done in Phase 2. It is definitely slower paced than many current MMORPG's though.

I was actually pretty hyped and following the game, but as more and more info has come out I have begun to dislike it. There are too many problems with the game right now and it will not be getting my money at launch.

Not everything plays like WoW. I wouldn't make any judgements on how fun it is until you've played it. Might not be fun to watch, but it could be a riot playing.

Strategy is more important to me than how fast you can solo a mob.

It's going to be nice playing something that breaks to mold for once.

Since beta 1 combat has sped up big time~
Yeah so what if its slow!

Its fun and takes skill~Where I dont just hit a fireball button and do over 9000+ dmg!

Than again this is coming from someone who played Everquest for 5-6 years~
Compare to this game EQ was slower !

Not every MMO was made for everyone~

This whole game is just terrible. I regret the $3 or whatever I spent on the monthly fee.
