Well it's a beta so don’t expect a smooth polished product. There are ALLOT of people playing and if there are 20 or more people near you the lag goes to hell. The world seems almost too small for the population; there are often not enough mobs around to satisfy all the people hunting.
The game itself is alright…the character development is a bit to linear for my tastes. You cant distribute points towards you stats and you cant mix character classes. The interface is a bit challenging. The only hotkeys you got are the F## keys, another words you are always in chat mode. So you gota do everything with the mouse…the camera controls are decent but could be better. The combat system involves selecting a mob, then clicking on it again to attack or cast a spell.
There are already quite a few NPC quests going. They are the usual “kill this number of monsters”, “deliver these items”, “find this guy” type of stuff but still nice to have I suppose.
BTW, their login screen is bugged. Their server can only log a certain number of people at a time and when it's busy you dont get any kind of message so it seems like there was no conection attempt. Just keep hitting the "log in" button and you will get in eventually.
