I would really like to know how the game is 'really' going to... You cannot ever get a straight answer around here though. All MMORPG.com is a place full of jaded, And Closed minded people who can't form a positive thought in there heads!

Read Oddzball's Preview. If you find that he can be trusted and seems objective enough then you can go to the official forums and read his latest post: http://forum.play-earthrise.com/index.php?/topic/1084-wow-just-wow/ .

 

You can also take some more time and read: http://forum.play-earthrise.com/index.php?/topic/889-playable-yet/

 

You will also find threads in which people who do like the game's potential complain about Gear Imbalances, Faults in the progression system (especially crafting) and lack of Goals and Meaning to PVP which leads to Ganking.

 

The game has launched with skeleton core features. It also has several technical issues, lag, instability, exploits. Masthead has promised that the features missing from launch like resource gathering, territorial conquest, etc will be added within then next 2+ months.

 

It's the typical case of the Sandbox with "Potential" that launches very poorly, the Devs promise that they will put everything in eventually and people who want it simply wait for the magical patches that will deliver.

If you're on the fence, wait a month or two and you won't be disappointed.

If you're on the fence but just can't wait, buy it from google (look around for cheaper retailers), but don't expect everything to be polished. You can however begin skilling up, exploring and learning the game.
