| The game's core is perfect--such great balance. There's never a perfect class or skillset as anything can be countered, then there a counter for that counter, and the cycle continues. There are many possibilities as far as classes and skills go. But, I do think the PvE side of the game could use some work.
The graphics for the environments and the monsters can look quite outdated at times. The method for grouping and trading with other players is clumsy and disorganized. AI for your computer-controlled henchmen is buggy and lacks control. And I think the game has some pretty crappy drops. i.e. I clear a whole map (200+ monsters, 90 minutes of my time) and get 1k gold and a few items not even worth mentioning. They have dumbed down the drops in an effort to reduce farmers and I think it affects the more casual players in a negative way. I play the game for the PvP, but the PvE side needs work imo. The new Factions expansion is more of the same for PvE with none of the issues I mentioned being adressed, just two new classes, a new map, and skills that are cookie cutters from the original with small twists thrown in here and there.  |
