I think this sums it up very well. I played 5 or 8 hours before quitting. Hellgate had the same problem. non-MMO MMO-styled games suck imo. The point of these kinds of games is to just grind and get better. If the game is too dull for me to even care then it just doesn't work. I'd rather play Diablo 2 or Titan Quest for this kind of fix. The more people you get to play with you the better.
