Not surprised, the game deserves it.

Gamasutra - Companies
VWORLD is an independent development studio formed in April 2004.

The quality of product Turbine produced is worthy. Not everyone will like the gameplay style , but to ignore the process that goes into building a game with such an IP can't be overlooked.

Sighs - not to critisise what is after all a well released PvE mmo. But i must point out its only been out for a few days now and in my opinion any review of it is iffy at best. Wait a few months then review it you will get a more accurate review of the games development and future that way.

I am a huge fan of the game after playing for 3 months or so, but I do agree it's a bit early for reviews.
However, some of these reviewers did play for the entire open beta (and some even before that).
They should still hold up for a couple of weeks imo before they review it.

With that said, i have played it plenty over the past few months and every word of this review is true for me. The game easily deserves a 9+ review in my opinion. What a lot of folks don;t understand is that us closed beta testers were playing a highly polished, release worthy game 3+ months ago.

Problem is that for all we know this game could get its own SWG - NGE like event. Therefore invalidating any reviews. Thats why i say wait a few months.

Another example is look at vanguard when it was release so amny promosis and look what happened.

 

So i say wit on the reviews a bit first.

Lets see the game is wildly successful, so Turbine is gonna say WTF lets redesign the game and see how many people we can piss off. Yeah right, your statement makes about as much sense as the  vanboys saying Vanguard will do a turn around.

 As far as promises go Turbine delivered exactly what they said they would in the retail package and that is what is being reviewed. In fact when I first started beta player owned horses were not planned for retail as well as a couple of other features, but everything went so smooth Turbine had time to test em and work them in.

my point is that you never know what will happen in the first few months of a game those were just EXAMPLES of what COULD happen not statments of what will happen.
