1. They want the lore / story / etc. Fed to them in a consecutive flow of in-game things. Quests, missions, instances, whatever.

2. They want there spells/actions handed to them in optimal form so all they have to do is click a button.

3. They want a VERY intuitive and slick use interface which tells them where to click/etc.

4. They want the game to be taught to them. In the first 1-2 hours maybe 3 hours they want to be proficient at the game. We all know that it currently takes months for that in Ryzom.

5. They want the game to draw them in and have them feeling completely a part of everything within the first 10-20 hours of play. I would probably err on the short side of that number. (I would agree here, with a 2 week trial you probably have a 10 hour shot at attracting a casual player.)


EDIT: P.S. You cannot imagine how much it would help to have the movement keys be W,A,S,D to start this alone pevs so many of the beginning players. The key mapping is pretty cumbersome too even if you know how to find it somehow, it does not intuitively let you remap over something, it just over writes it.

This game is for players of all ages, however it requires the player to have some imagination and it requires some social skills if you wish to progress faster as teaming is much more effiencent than solo.
