    What's the world like? Is it reaaallly wide open like WoW (like you can walk from one side of the world to the other) or is it more like Age of Conan where a lot of the stuff you follow on a set path.

    It's more linear, and I think it is that way partly to ensure that enemy players encounter each other a lot, since WAR is mainly Realm v Realm PvP game with a some light PvE added to it.

    So what you'll find is that your leveling zones are right next to your enemy race's leveling zones, and there are a lot of places on the map where you'll come into direct conflict with your enemies.

    Also, note that PvP in WAR is much more fun than PvP in WoW. I hated WoW PvP with a passion, but WAR PvP is just insane fun.

    After playing for a couple of days now since launch, I have a few comments...

    It's fun, for sure, and has some nice alternatives to WoW... for example showing you exactly where to go for each quest, and the public quests are hella fun.

    The problem, IMO, is it's buggy as hell... Every time I exit the game I have to ctrl+alt+delete and end the program, even then it takes 3-5 minutes to finally exit. Hella annoying.

    I'm enjoying the Maurader class though, and the game has potential but really needs to be polished a ton. I'd suggest waiting a while if you want to try it, so they get some of the bugs worked out. There are way too many of them right now.

    Wow, I just totally disagree with this.

    I've encounter bugs, mostly graphical but some minor gameplay issues, especially since I'm a pet class and the pets have had some AI and pathing problems. However, no class is truly broken to the extent that it is unplayable, and the game as a whole is totally playable and totally fun.

    And this isn't to mention how most MMOs have major bugs, class balancing issues, and whatnot on release. WAR, on the other hand, has some class balancing issues that definitely need attention and some relatively small bugs, but is totally and completely playable as well as a lot of fun.

    Gamespot did a good video pre-review of the game : http://www.gamespot.com/pc/rpg/warha...opslot;thumb;3
