I've also been following it for a really long time (love this genre, Comp Fantasy is probably my favorite genre period). Also hear the beta isn't going well. Lots of glitches, and bad mechanics. The games still young though, so maybe it'll work out.

Glitches can be fixed. It's the core mechanics of combat that make it the same as every other MMO out there. It's dull.

However, the puzzles are quite likable. It would have been nicer as a single-player game, but Funcom doesn't seem to know what those are.

WoW was glitchy and ran like trash in it's beta stages. Also - WoW had 12 million subscriptions in the US alone, and at least double that in china/korea. You wonder why companies want to make MMOs? I bet blizzard rakes in nearly 500 million $ a month from WoW.
