Age of Wushu is the rebirth of the mmo era.

 If the Repopulation, EQnext, Malru, and  World of Darkness can follow suit, we're in for some good times.

 

NW seems to be more of a tool. Not a bad thing, but hey.

 

 

No, no it isn't. Just the same Asian grinder in a shiny new package, and all the gameplay revolves around making people use the cash shop / buy gold or suffer. Just like every other Asian "F2P" game ever made.

 

Think you have AoW confused with Tera. It's the most innovative mmorpg on the market. You should try it.

 

I have, for weeks of gameplay, and a dozen "Asian grinders" before that. It has some new things, but the formula is fundamentally the same: grind/farm forever for everything and/or buy gold. As such, it is not fundamentally different than half a dozen other games I could name. It has some nice points, but nothing that will appeal to Western audiences. Were I a S.Korean teenager playing it as a part time job, I might like it, but as I am not their target demographic, I don't. Big grind, meh game.

All good mate, Seems like we're playing 2 different games. I for one who couldn't stomach a korean game, is saying this, heck I was raised "buy American. Must be because Wushu is from China.

 

So many anti-grind features built in, plus you are not forced to do ANYthing you don't want to. It's by far the most wide open mmorpg on the market with people instead of spaceships. It's everything sandbox gamers have been asking for, minus teraformming. We wont see any mmorpg with more this year. 

 

btw - would love for you to name 6 games anything similar to AoW. Start a thread in the AoW forums.

Remember all those things you said when the GW2 hivemind would troll other games' threads?  Remember the fanboy tripe that got annoying?  You should take your own advice and bring Wushu back to it's own forum because you sound exactly like the GW2 fans you raged on.  Really, your game isn't any better than GW2 or most any other game on the market and we're here to talk about Neverwinter, not Wushu.

lol:P

nw is a fun game and has made some good improvements since the last beta.. hopefully they will continue to listen to the feedback as they seem to of been doing a pretty decent job so far which should show in this beta

lol, if the MMO era died everytime someone says it is because of a game they don't like, the MMO era would never have happened.  There is always someone there to complain.

Tbh the combat is the only thing I had fun with. But sadly rest of it doesnt meet my expectations. Lack of customization, and zerging in dungeons were 2 main complains from me. Ill try to level my rogue to 35 this beta. and see if it has improved. But im not expecting much.

Ive read and re-read what the OP has written and come to the conclussion that this is not a game review but an OpEd disguised as a game review. In my opinion darkblight you need to take some courses in writing so you can understand that a game review is based on facts that you have derived from the game and not opinions disguised as facts.
