    Default Neverwinter or Vindictus?

    Just like the title says, should I play Neverwinter or Vindictus? I watched both first looks, en I liked them both. I may choose Neverwinter for the combat, and maybe Vindictus for the graphics. Please tell me what to choose and why.

    Thanks in advance,
    Worsteman

    Vindictus, no contest here. Neverwinter is pay to win garbage. But hope you enjoy repetitiveness and grinding since thats what you'll be doing in Vindictus.

    Vindictus isn't THAT repetitive at first.

    So Vindictus is more killing the same monsters over and over again? (Kind of a newbie here, what means grinding?) And Neverwinter is bad?

    Neverwinter seems to be a game you can play for a week or two, than move on to something else. It's enjoyable for that time frame.

    It's more like farming the same instance every few levels for materials to craft or to do a quest for someone else. And when I say repetitive I mean the skills can get repetitive since you have to grind for AP and level up to get new skills.

    If you have lots of money to spend and don't know what to spend it on: Neverwinter
    If you don't mind a little bit dungeon repeating: Vindictus

    Part of this is what makes Vindictus really good. Vindictus isn't the kind of game that hands you everything the instant you hit the level cap. This is a progression based game. Maybe not eveyone likes progression games and that is fine. Every MMO that offers raiding as an endgame is going to have elitists. That is just human nature. Even WoW has its' elitists. Hard attack cap boats is the result of people wanting to do speed runs. They want to do raids that were designed to take 1 hour and do it in a 10 minute speed run. But the thing is there is NO gear score in Vindictus. Nothing is stopping people with low attack from doing missions and completing them. In fact it is expected that people start off with minimal attack when they start raiding. That is whole point of progression. You start off weak and then you get stronger. This is what keeps people playing after they hit the level cap.

    Thanks for the reactions guys! Based on what you told me, I'm starting to play Vindictus today! Anyone wants to join me? (I'm kind a off newbie in RPS).
    Is Vindictus dungeon/instance based or open-world based?

    Thanks again!

    14-15k ATT as well as 7k-9k def is EXTREMELY easy to achieve now with nighthawk, yes 16-20k boats exist but there are plenty of boats without a requirement, i personally have 14.5k att and have no problems clearing all the season 2 raids daily, then if i catch my guild running a group its even easier.

    That being said vindictus all the way, for me it was a very slow burn that took many attempts to actually get into the game, 1-60 was a boring and tedious grind (imo) but after 60 content actually becomes challenging and enjoyable even if it is still a gear grind.
