I've come from basically every big MMO. I've played everquest, FFXI, wow, GW, GW2, ETC ETC anything that drummed up a lot of popularity sucked me in.
This game however, I was SUPER resistant to play. I thought the F2P system would be a hindrance. I thought that because of it the story and level design would be dull and poorly written. I thought that the gameplay would overall feel lackluster and without much reward.
I was wrong. Dead wrong. I have been enjoying every zone, every level, and every instance. Im 46 now, and things have gotten progressively tougher and more challenging since 35ish. The skirmishes have gone from plow through and get loot, to pay attention don't stand in fire, kill adds that are causing a problem, fight this boss for a long time. The boss encounters I've experienced share some similarities, but overall the dungeon designs and level details make up for it.
The F2P system is.. not perfect. A lot of people are upset about the 6.00 respecs. I don't really care about that because its not going to really be an issue until people are 60 and want to minmax. Coming from the pen and paper cousin I like to plan my paths, and I really enjoy planning out where Im going to go. I can READ so I know whats coming up in the next few levels. People complaining about respec fees when they're level 12 are just noise echoing a mild issue that want their voice to be heard because of their on personal need to get attention. Says the guy making a post that is clearly going to get flamed.
I like the extra vanity items, I bought a couple mounts from the Zen store, and I've bought zen to open all my lock boxes. I paid the 60 bones to get the starter pack, and Ill continue to support the zen store as long as there is things inside it that peak my interest. As an adult with an adult wallet this is achievable, but if you're living under the income of a parent or guardian you're probably angry that you can't on a whim open your lockboxes or respec because you're bored. If you're unemployed and don't want to expend the incoming you don't have on 6-40 dollar micro transactions. GET A JOB THIS IS THE WRONG USE OF YOUR TIME!
Things I've observed that are making the game fundamentally less fun.
Needing on items you can't wear. It literally says, 'You can't use this item'
Please make it so they can't need on these items. Ive played in so many groups where someone loses an item that someone could legitimately use to someone who just wants to vendor/ah it.
Queue system
I can't tell you how many times I've joined a party with 4 rogues and 1 wizard. or 2 rogues a wizard and 2 GWF.
If we had a Queue as option and the queue searched for tank, healer, dps dungeons wouldn't end up being a waste of time for people that use the queue.
Balancing and overall tuning of classes should be a high priority. My TR is 46, but i've played a cleric and a wizard to 25. Whoa, totally different experience. It was much harder(slower) on those classes. And the obvious 'rogues are too OP nerf rogues, lol **** class baby carriers play rogues lol swag' comments could be made, but they come off ignorant, uneducated, and childish.
In DD rogues do a TON of damage you expect that from them. Its their job. I can go either way on nerfing them or not.
keep it up, Im very happy with the game.
