I played WOW for 6 years, Rift for 2, and GW2 since day 1. I played competitive PvP,
and was a hardcore raider. Based on my years of experience, I wanted to add some input
on my experience in NW. First of all, I have really enjoyed the game, but wanted to input
some thoughts:
1) The lack of teleport back to the city makes no sense. Worse yet, a scroll cost 4k AD.
2) The lack of gold generation Im fine with. What I am not fine with, is going through 50+
pots in Castle Never. In order to run this on a regular basis, your gold gets completed quickly.
3) I love the PvP and combat. In order to promote more people playing, there should be a
small silver reward for playing, along with a minor amount of AD. This would allow a way
to at least get some income, while at the same enjoying the PvP aspect.
4) The LFG function for dungeons is silly. More times than not, the game starts with no tank and
no cleric.
5) You should be able to pay and reselect race. This has been brought up before.
6) The character graphics, along with most items are lackluster. There should be more effort put
into this. If you look at the greatswords in GW for instance, many were awesome and gave that look
of power.
Just my 2 coppers for now. Love the game so far though!

Define beta plz
It was Sarcasm.

playing on the PC.
How about you? If you want to nickpick my term, I guess it was worth my 10 seconds
to post my credentials.
Title states Veteran MMO PLAYER. OP starts off with WoW as his first MMO *Facepalm more likely slightly used mmo player
FYI do some D8D background knowledge. Gold was always lacked in DD. 50 pots aint much. better than casual nerfing then entire expierence. I enjoy the difficulty. even if i have to get 1 gold to buy a handleful of pots
that gold was an issue. Unless you are NOT referring to the paper and pencil.

Shame most of the old ones are superceded by what is released today and are not a requirement to being a veteran.
I wouldn't consider you a veteran.. I have been playing MMO's since Sierras The Realm online.
Us older folks sure do get a chuckle out of reading these forums full of ego.
Besides, all your points are blatantly obvious and there are much more detrimental issues to be addressed.
What is the requirement to being a veteran? Oh...there isn't one. Everyone's opinion is just as valued and important as the next. Stop trying to show how many games you've played and keep to the topic.
@the guy who posted an essay of games, you're probably allergic to sunlight now.
who like to troll over actually answer the original content of the OP.
OK kiddies, you win. Im not a veteran. My bad. I thought playing games on PC for over
20 years meant something. Im wrong, you are totally right. You win. Your my hero bro!
Now I can spend more time seeing whats going to happen with this exploit issue.
Let's put it this way... I didn't stay playing it too long. I got pretty bored fast. Focused on WoW instead.
I didnt say i played them all

Shut up. Done? Thanks. Just kidding. Seriously though, stop being such a...******bag. I know it's easy over the net but control your inner ******bag.
Secondly, it doesn't matter if his points are obvious or not. They are still 100% valid points that are based on his opinion therefore, either discuss or leave the thread. If there are more important matters at hand, then that is your opinion. If you would like to share your opinion, please do.
