" This game has its flaws, so what!

Yeah, but when those flaws become game-stopping, rendering you basically unable to play without getting uberpwned by every mob you fight, well, that IS different from other games' flaws.

All I've seen in over a week is, it's harder than hell to kill mobs even quite a bit lower level than I am, for no chance of a reward for my efforts. Why go through all this trouble when the mobs don't even drop anything except junk to sell for crafters to use? I don't care if it's realistic or not, it's plain ol' boring to me. This game's just not dangling much of a carrot in front of me, I mean what's the point, why level up? Just to fight stronger mobs? With no loot...eek...I have flashbacks of HZ all over again, except this game's not even addictive early on. HZ at least had that going for it. They waited 4 months before driving all their playerbase away, not 5 weeks as is the case here.

"MOst players has stoped complaining, atlest ingame!"

That's because EQII is out now.

well it is now recomended that new players dont leave the newb island untill lvl 30, sure players that know what their doing leave earlyer but thats cause they know what their going to face. im guessing even neverax are recomending this lvl 30 leave, even if they havnt said everything, as vendors now sell upto level 30 mats.. if only 21-24 quartered items showed up, and players could harvest upto q30 on the island, cause q20 gear is much better than q30 as its all basic.

I played tuesday night for four hours and had no low to no lag.

I do love the death penalty.

I love the loot system, I hate it when game have coins drop off dogs. Or a sword drop of a spider.

I realy love that the stuff for crafting is found on animals. Much beter than just cash farming then buying them off merchants.

Well no new MMORPG has no flaws. for example read this:

EQ2:

WOW:
http://groups.google.com.ua/groups?hl=uk&lr=&threadm=20041110193433.07586.00000474%40mb-m01.aol.com&prev=/groups%3Fhl%3Duk%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26oe%3DUTF-8%26group%3Dcomp.sys.ibm.pc.games.rpg

:P more on game forums.

So far I like SoR for its skill system, game mechanics & graphics, mature "population". GM response is unbeatable. Yet it badly lacks content/quests and not additictive in sense of levelling, as for example AO is. Loot rewards maybe have to be remade for fighter/mage types of players but that way crafting/harvesting will lose its sense altogether. I will wait another month to see if game changes and if not then probably will go back to Anarchy or will check EQ2. Hoping for better.
