I agree that the game feels very Asian MMO and clunky and SE has showed poor communication and support. After quitting WoW a couple years ago I've found nothing that can even compare to it or worthy of competing. However I do believe that if the game wants to succeed there will be many improvements especially in the fluidity of combat. I've decided to go ahead an pay for six months up front and I will decide after that if SE has shown any interest in keeping their player base.
