This is the same dilemma a lot of us have, there is not crap out there to play... All new MMOs have focused on one game aspect and forgotten the rest of what makes an MMO a true MMO. No customization, no worthwhile crafting, no group dynamics...
GW2 - Twitch game play.. no real group dynamics... Kite fest game play.. death is meaningless
NEVERWINTER - Twitch combat .. No crafting.. horrid graphics
TSW - Twitch combat, lazy crafting, 1000 skills but still only 3 viable group dungeon builds that you must have to join in on raids.
Rift - No crafting, everything is solo content... best of the lot for classes that are fun
Star Wars ToR - just a cash market mess.
Free to PLay, pay to win games all over the place..
All the good games have gotten dated in the graphics department, and or lost players due new free to play restriction.
I say wait for Elder Scrolls Online... that one should be fun for 4 months or so.
GW2 is a point and clicker.. with auto everything... how the hell is it twitch play? if you see an arrow homing, its an auto aim game.. it fakes being action but its not...

As always. It's the answer to almost every LFG question ever asked(save for the pesky PvP questions).
Just try it with open mind. You won't regret it(tenfold so if you find a guild)... :€ <-even Lictor agrees lol!
i was going to suggest this as well. Give it a try! It looks decent when you max graphics. Has real crafting, a social game called diplomacy, player housing and cities, non instanced dungeons.. And dosn't hold your hand, it takes time to progress and learn the game.. definitely worth a try!
Originally posted by Gorwe It used to look even better, but they decided to lower the graphics so as to make Vanguard more accesible. This is mostly visible on character faces. They were OMG detailed at the time of launch. I feel like they nerfed some of the GFX as well.
Come to think of it, why don't we get a choice of HD or SD GFX? I mean, most of us run Vanguard on 60fps anyhow(the only problem I have is that their server is located in the us, therefore I have 200-300 ms Ping at all times)...
I also reacted to my ping at first. But then talked to some others about it and came to the conclusion it doesn't affect my game, if it does it's just minor.
Too bad about the lowered gfx, I went with the race I thought looked best: Dark elf.
