The community is, the systems are not.

Well, the systems kind of are if you go into it with a 2002 mindset. If you go in expecting to shovel through waves of mobs single-handedly without any effort and understand every menu intuitively, you're going to have a bit of a bad time. That said, the XP boosts and trusts kind of turn it into that experience, difficulty-wise. The menus are still pretty archaic, though. Try playing on Horizon, it's wonderful.
