Yes. Even during the first month, some starting areas felt too empty. Of course, Vanguard had a lot of issues, personally I stopped playing because my PC couldn't handle it properly. But it had great concepts. Fun classes, the open free for all pvp was fun (although there was quite some class imbalance issues), non-instanced dungeons, the crafting was great and the "politics"-system were a fun addition. Had it gotten more players at start and more that stuck around longer, it could've turned out great. Instead of claiming that the community failed Vanguard, I almost want to say that it never had a community (obviously it did but I'm trying to say that even during the launch there were too few people in that huge world).

Another great and unique game around that time was Pirates of the Burning Sea. Had some issues. Unfortunately I believe it was released around the time Burning Crusade was released yeah or something like that so it never stood a fair chance!
