I may have to try it. I’m enjoying EVE for the same reasons (it feels new and different). In Aion, I felt like (and pretty much was) an expert after the first day since it was so similar to all the others.

I love the idea of the combat. I guess my issue with it isn’t having to pay attention to it, it’s the feeling that I’m fighting with it more than I am the npc I’m trying to target.

As a long, long, long time MMO player, Fallen Earth is a refreshing change. No elves, no 1 button combat. As jankey as the combat seems, you really have to pay attention or get your ass handed to you on a salvaged platter.

Sounds fun, but I can’t get into those whole “post apocalyptic” games. Too depressing for me. I just don’t see the fun running around in a world where everyone is pretty much dead, or dying, and everything is destroyed. But, hey that’s me.

Sums up my thoughts fairly well. I just got far enough in where I felt a “lack of purpose” that most Sandboxes give me. I need to be told what to do damnit! XD

Nice write up, I agree with everything. I to didn’t do any crafting during the beta and now that I am I am enjoying the game a lot more myself.

I don’t think I have felt as overwhelmed or lost in a MMO since the first time I played one.
