I'm not sure how much I like it at this point. The combat seems fun, but tbh I REALLY liked the combat in Tabula Rasa but it got old after there was nothing more to do after the 'wow' factor wore off.
So I'm going to give this one some time to see how it goes.

One thing to know is that lots of stuff are turned off for the open beta: no working DX10, the gore/fatalities areturned down, and the client is an old client with debuggers running in the background (in case you are having performance issues which the devs said on the forums should be gone in the retail game). There was a post on the forums from a guy who was in the closed beta and is also in the open beta, and he said that the closed beta ran beautifully compared to the open one. There is talk that they are intentionally trying to make the game run less than optimally to stress test for bugs.
All that being said, I really am enjoying the game, I never played tabula rasa except in the beta and I really didn't like it. AoC has a much better story driven experience than any other mmo I have played, granted I only played WoW, Vanguard, Tabula Rasa(beta), Eve Online(trial) and Guild Wars.
The combat is just plain fun.
