If this wins PC game of the year then all the the other games must be awful. If there was any justice in the world this won't win, I'm going to try and do what I can by voting against it. AoC is flawed, unfinished, linear, grindy & far too instancy (is that even a word?) please don't vote for this game!!!
I'm still playing the game and will be for a few months but I agree with the OP I don't like all the instancing and restricted maps/paths, It makes it feel like crappy guild wars not an mmorpg but a morpg and I stopped playing those games when mmorpgs came out.
This game is good enough to go on like Lotr but it's no classic and while it might attract a large initial following I suspect it will lose a lot of this when warhammer comes out, me included!
While it does 'sound' like things have improved the fact that such a bug strewn game was released showed a complete and utter lack of respect for the mmorpg community. When companies do such things they lose the trust of the people playing these games, me included. So I will never go back to this game they've already shown me they don't give a damn about me so I will do the same and never pay for their product.
Also the complete lack of a free trial of this game again says heaps, any company confident of having a quality product would be more than happy to let people have a taster, all the big 'good' mmorpgs do it. So I would say to anybody considering going back don't until you can see the game via a free trial.
I've had a quick look at the videos and screenshots of this game and it looks very dated and old, there are 2 'potentially' fanatastic new mmorpgs due out this year which look way better than Vanguard so why pay for something which has a poor history when you can end up paying for 'possibly' one of the best mmorpgs released in the last few years?
Sorry if my comments offend but Vanguard offended me!
I'm guessing 0% as nearly all the wow players are less than 18 and this is a 17+ game ![]()
Although I'm screaming out for a decent new mmorpg I'd rather wait for a finished game than end up with the dross that was Dark and Light or the definately nowhere near finished Vanguard.
They are trying to give people some idea of when it's due out but obviously they are so commited to producing a quality product that they are not prepared to release it unfinished, this only makes me want to play it more. As with all IT projects delays are inevitable as it's so damn complex.
I've preordered my collectors edition. ;)
Which console would you like to see MMOs released for?
