Ozu summed up what I was going to say nicely.
It tries to be different but people hate the game for it. Read every review and they are not sound arguements based on facts (apart from the ui which does and more than likely will receive an update) instead they are lazy boy whines from newer mmo players who expect the wow standard.*** it doesn't have an auction house I have to actually look for an item waaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I have to run around and see the world and actually realise I am in a world not a series of conjoined instances waaaaaaaaaaaaaa, I have to play with other people in a multiplayer game?!? Waaaaaaaaaaaaaa, ihave ti read, READ a quest description and then actually THINK about what I do next WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA MAMMY!!!!!
The game needs a few tweaks to the targetting system, the Market wards (make them craft specific) and the ui needs a bit of slap and tickle. But apart from that it's a great game which required you, the player, to switch on your brain and get engaged rather than rolling your head across the keyboard and occasionally clicking a mouse button.
Games that try anything remotely different are shot down. Games that try to copy the bog standard are shot down. Either embrace the change and enjoy it or go back to the other games. I honestly don't know how the reviewers are getting away with such pathetic, baseless tripe. Give mr a sound solid arguement and I will acknowledge it (if not agree as I do like the game) but pack it in with the drivel.
SE's biggest mistake is trying to make this cross platform. It should have been pc or console not both but I can live with the result and patches will sort it out the technical issues like targetting and ui which have already been widely acknowledged as being better on a gamepad. They do however need a better oc port ie. Hotkeying certain things and no self targetting during combat.
I'm going to pack in arguing about the game now it's a waste of my time. My only advice to potential players is if you like a good game and want something new you will be pleasently surprised.
***Can I just say here I am not justbashing wow for the sake of it. I don't enjoy the game but I do respect what it does. It is however the benchmark which other gamers now hold everything up against which is why I mention it.
