I played uild Wars for an hour or 2 and I don't think I like it. There must be something wrong with me since everybody else adores it. Anyway here are the things I don't like.
I miss the isometric view of games like D2, DD, Sacred. Seems like a minor point, huh? But--for instance a member of my party was fighting a monster right next to me and I didn't even know it.
The changing camera views are annoying to me and interfere with gameplay.
When I arrived at the Perilous North where everyone was milling about I had absolutely no idea how to form a party or what to do. Fortunately after a few minutes someone invited me to party. And yes I did post an ingame chat message asking what to do, but got no answer.
I felt like I didn't know what I was doing and needed to solo a bit to get a better feel before rejoining a new party. But the solo game was difficult--kept getting killed by a group of scorpions--and well, boring, as well. Not exactly boring, but not fun. I found myself preferring to log out and play something else.
I suppose I would give it another try, but not just now.
