Watched the video because a group from my old DAoC guild are going to play it. They've been talking about it for two years, but based on the video I don't get why. The more I see of the game play the less attracted to it I am. Five minutes of boring "multi-player dialog" followed by a cut-scene transition into a linear instance. Wow, look at that set-piece ship crash in the background! Isn't this exciting?
If I blink my eyes really fast I can't tell what game this is. There's a guy with a glowy sword, a cloth-wearing squishy who pulls aggro when she shouldn't, and a stealther who hides behind a rock when the fight begins. Which way is Ogrimmar?
And maybe I'm just being a nabob of negativity at this point, but multi-player conversations with quest-giving NPCs? That's the next big thing? Meh, think I'll go play a UO freeshard or reroll in Camelot again.
You're complaining that the game has FEATURES? What's an RPG supposed to have then? No dialogue, no classes, no cinematics? You guys are so funny complaining that there's dialogue and story, actions with consequences. Anyone that complains about that is just looking for a few buttons to push for a few hours.
