    RF Online Retail Initial Impression

    The English is dodgy, typo everywhere. The graphic is not that great, even on max settings, button is a bit difficult to handle at first, but not too bad. Targeting system is outright ridiculous, no shortcut for targeting. And i dont like the idea of leveling by killing the same kind of monster over and over again. IMO it's very very disappointing. Stick with GW for now. So what you guys think ?

    I agree, i was in the beta and it seemed a bit one track. All there was to do was to level until you were high and you get some nice armor then you do a few quests to get better items/weapons/armor/etc. rinse and repeat. I hate that sort of game I like games like SWG, before they screwed it up of course, it was so indepth. You were able to starta mining business, form a guild city, build up an army of imperial troops/rebel troops and of course you could make player bases for your faction. They need to make a game like that again but of course don't let Sony do it cos they always screw up, EQ2 sucks... lol
    I can't understand why soo many people play these games where all there is to do is to fight some pointless mobs and PvP against some noobs, seriously MMO's like that are made for noobs EVE online, Dark Space and SWG are in (were in in SWG's case) a league of their own and hence should be reclassified as IMMORPG's (Indepth Massively MultiPlayer Online Role Playing Game.

    im trying out the free month so far i got to level 36 Accretia gunner on spirit just got to ether and its been pretty fun with pvp so far true the grind makes it boring but the pvp component makes it worth it , its not as polished as wow but tbh the level 60 epic grind in wow got close to intolerable and too time consuming with 5 hour raids to get single epic etc with honour system only benefiting noobs with no life who play bg 24/7.
