WAR is fun. In fact, its the most fun I've had in an MMO since SWG pre CU/NGE. Now I can't comment on the end game content – yet – but I can say a lot about the first 3 tiers (ranks 1-30). I've taken 4 classes up through rank 3 and enjoyed all four of them. Every class has its own unique play style, and above all they're all fun. If you like PvP (RvR), WAR is for you. Starting at level 1 you have access to WAR's scenarios – RvR battles you can join from any part of the world simply by the press of a button. Public quests encourage new cooperativeness and keep battles take RvR to a whole new playing field. The world of Warhammer is immense and plagued with unending lore (thats a good thing). The UI is simple and familiar, though I'd like to see more mods out there. Graphics are not super realistic and ground breaking, but it is stylized – like WoW – so it is, indeed, beautiful. Tied of WoW? Pick this game up. Love PvP? Give it a try. Never played an MMO? WAR makes it as easy as possible to start.
Games don't always release to millions on day 1. Warcraft took 4 years to reach their 12 million, and though WAR might not be the great WoW killer, it certainly holds its own. With a great launch, constant updates (I mean who gives out 2 new classes within the first 3 months for free?). Mythic knows what theyre doing, and with a little time, this could be one of the greats. I'd urge anyone interested to play. Bottom line: its fun. Isn't that why we play games in the first place?
