Overall, this game succeeds in many areas. The game is fast and easy to get into - it doesn't take too long at all to level, and the option to PVP with high level characters is there from the moment you install the game. The graphics and sound are excellent and fit the environment well. The game uses familiar controls for anyone that has played an MMO before - hotkey bars, movement via the arrow keys (or click-to-move for some MMO veterans) and clicking on monsters to fight. Finally, the game eliminates the need to wait for one last person to fill a group, and makes most content accessible to solo players by allowing henchmen to be recruited into the group.
This is definitely one game that I'd recommend - both to people looking for something different from the standard MMO fare and those wondering just what the heck this genre of games is all about.
