Ok im desperate..... After the total failure of both AoC and POTBS(Both of which i watched and waited for with excitement) Fall flat on their faces allmost straight away. I need a game to play.... HGL looks great and sounds like a great idea but i read alot of hate posts which makes me consider shelling out cash for yet another MMO.
So can you tell me is this game worth the money and time? Can you tell me how much of the teething problems have been fixed? Is the community alive or is it just chinese farmers and kids talking crap in general chat? How deep is the gameplay? i mean i dont want to sit here pressing 1,2,3..... 1,2,3..... 1,2,3 hour after hour.
Anyway any info will be appriciated..... Thx in advance.

This game isn't an MMO, period. It is seriously a multiplayer RPG, in the exact same sense as Diablo 1 or 2, especially since some of the team that made D2 made HGL. It incorporates alot of the slaughter-a-billion-critters-or-get-overwhelmed sense in D2 but from a 3rd-persion or 1st person view. Combat gets somewhat repetitive since you just click and hold and walk around ni circles to kill everything, but it's also a lot of fun to see a big ass demon burst into flames and asplode. The maps are randomly generated like in Diablo but they all look the same tbqh. There's a demo you can try but it doesn't really show you anything about the actual game. Also, the armour looks totally bad ass in this game (higher level anyway)
Curious also. Just saw some pics uploaded...and I saw the word "grenade" (ooooooooh!!) -- not spell -- GRENADE!! (me: BF2142+Ammo crate=endless fragging).

It's quite simple.

I never made it to the 2nd difficulty but from what I heard, grenades are too weak in the late game to be useful at all, but they are fun as hell when you start out
