An average modern-style "theme park" MMO with a passable story and believable world that is at times beautiful (the water looks good) and at other times bland. Lots of pop-in, invisible characters in cut scenes and in-game, and basic quests that at least have tie-in with the story. I found myself siding with a subset of a group that I was forced to attack yet had to continue to advance the game.
I will reassess my review of this game when I reach endgame, assuming that I do so before the game's closure. Despite the game being mediocre, I did enjoy myself enough that I hate to see it be closed. There's enough potential for a solid MMORPG if enough time were invested into the game. If there's a group that finds this world to be like a second home for them -- hopefully a private server can be put online.
