i just started playing RoM and I am loving it. The community (at least in Grimdal) is so friendly and entertaining in the zone chat.
I helped some people kill the Bear King outside of town and as if it wasn't enjoyable enough, I got the title "Master of the Bear King" to use as I please.
I haven't even bothered with crafting yet, as it doesn't interest me that much and I hear its kind of useless.
The thing that REALLY sold me on RoM were the elite skills. I saw the dual-class system and I thought, "oh thats just like guild wars, not interested." Then i read about elite skills. Skills that only a certain combo has access to.
For instance, a warrior/mage has access to skills that imbue the weapon with fire and electricity(wind). A mage cannot use light spells on its own, and niether can a knight. A mage/knight however, can use offensive holy spells that NO other class combo can use.
It really adds a lot of customization to the character classes.
The housing system is great too. Some furniture is from quest rewards, some you can buy with diamonds/tokens.
I can't say much about the cash shop dependency, but I can say that it has a system like the MTS in maplestory. You can put an item you find up and people can buy it with either gold or diamonds(the item shop currency)
