i have been reading all teh posts and reviews and even watching some of the movie trailers but i still dont know if this game is entertaining enough that i would want to buy it. i really enjoyed playing Fable and Jade Empire if thats helps if you think i would like it.

I have played just about every rpg for pc that i can find. Including mmorpg's. I cancelled my subscription to wow because im so addicted to this game. I have fable also and jade empire and I play this game alot more then either of them. In fact since I got this game yesterday I haven't played a single other game. In my opinion you would love this game.

hmmm... its like single player meets mmorpg for lvl1-10th atleast (only at 10th right now). After that all bets are open for me... I simply havent found out yet...

You can opt to doing single player missions/quests with hench(wo)men or joining up with a group of peeps that are actually breathing.

You can opt for going on a few "dump/loot" runs to get some armor materials or run a quest/mission as you like without worrying about pvp.

Choose... this time its really up to you. 10+ I dont know... Im guessing you will be forced abit more to joining up with "breathing" folks to be more succesfull... but right now its pretty doable with npcs.

I rather group with the breathing type but as many others time is an issue and I dont always have the choice of doing so.

The thing is after playing... UO, EQ, EQ2, AC, AC2, E&B, EVE, WOW, Lin2, PS, AO, Horizons, FOM and numerous others... this is the first "mmorpg" that lets me have its way and having fun without feeling pushed to exceed for doing so, and knowing I will "shoot myself in the foot" for doing so... and I also got numerious other class combos I want to try...

Its always a risk, I cant see or know what you want... but at the very least.. it will give you what you want for the time being without a montly cost...

Looking at GW vs "Some other mmorpg" isnt a good idea... its like apples and oranges...

The game is less then a week old... right now Im having loads of fun... and cant imagine not having so for the next few weeks/months... Seeing thats the case.. I think I spend my $$$ in a good way.
