When you release a train wreck game you should expect your not going to make money.
Not that bad of a game, just nothing really new and has the same problems as new MMOs. Lack of content.
Got enough enjoyment from my initial 30 days. Really feel like that's the only thing new MMOs are worth playing for lately as you can clear everything so fast.
I guess this will teach them a lesson about releasing a mediocre mmo into a market sick to death of mmos.
Free to play in six months. Mark my words.

I played the trial and actually rather enjoyed it. The combat was flighty and weak and abilities were lackluster, but everything else felt nice. Its just not a game worth $50 to me, let alone the $15 monthly subscription fee.
If it didn't have a subscription and used the Guild Wars model I probably would have played it.

Just right now, their store offers next to nothing worthwhile, so there is no reason to buy coins on top of your subscription fee. I think they should find a way to do something like what DnDO does, or Champions Online. They have a shit ton of stuff you have to pay for, but at least they constantly release new content and give pretty big incentives for people to subscribe while not making subscription the only way to obtain them.

I just think Funcom rushed it. If they had given themselves another six months to a year and taken the time to revamp things like the combat and add in more content overall, it would be a great game.
I hate that the combat in this was so bad. I love the world, I love the design, I love basically everything about it. But the combat was just too bad for me to ever play it. Maybe if it goes F2P or Buy-to-Play I will pick it up.
Bad gameplay great story.
