I enjoy the console rpg feel of the game, i love the story so far, very interesting and touching, and i like the game system which is so different that it feels like im playing an mmo for the first time.
It is unfinished and unpolished yes, but i would like to see it finsihed in the same direction it was started.
I would hate to see attempts to turn this into a standard type mmo, as it stands, it has the originality and uniqueness on its side.
I know its too early for me to tell, but so far it looks like the only problem with this game is that its unfinished, it was released too early and they working on that right?
So why all the gloom and doom and everybody calling everybody a troll?
Its nice to see some positive attitudes about the game every once in a while, it really is. The unfortunate thing however is that saying the lack of polish and finish in this game is ALL that is wrong with it is statement an MMO vet can not truely take seriously. The gloom and doom is well warranted because if you have been a part of other poor launches you would know that more often then not poor launches get plug pulled. What alot of people forget is that this is a VERY expensive game. If they cant pull the revenue in this effort to make it playable, we very well may see this game pulled. The gloom and doom comes out of launches like WAR, AOC, Tabula Rasa, The matrix online, not to mention the further harm these updates may end up causing in the future, for example Star wars galaxies.

The mmo world is a fickle on and i guarantee you if this was not a numbered FF game the plug would have been pulled, and if it was a small company it also would have been pulled. It is up to SE to see if they can fix this game, and im very excited to see where the game goes, however the positivists cant disregard all negitivity as trolls, for alot of it is well warranted and those who are positive dont understand how close this game could have been to shutting down. Its just something to think about and so you have a perspective of why there is glooma nd doom.
