There seems to be a rather big issue for this game. I bought it based on the idea that I could do some nice RvR combat (i.e. a cross of RPG and FPS which hasn't really appeared yet).
Ok, so I start levelling up... but release how painfully SLOW it is.
Also, killing toads and stuff over and over again, watching the bar slowly go up, occasionally getting bumrushed by some monsters 10 levels above me... fine... but I then realise that the manual said level 15 for RvR! OMG level FIFTEEN jeez do I have to spend my life playing this or something? This was to worsen on reading some posts on here about not even bothering with RvR until level 40+. What the hell?
Seriously, the only thing I was interested in was some PvP, and it looks like its only for people who have already played the game for ages. What I'm saying here is there is NOTHING for the casual gamer in this game. I want to spend a few hours building a char, go to the front and see some action. It seems like I have to put in weeks of effort in just to get a char who can even stay alive out there.
Am I missing something? Does everyone buy the game, play it for a few days, have the sudden realisation (see above) then bin their copy? Is there some secret way to level up quick? (btw - killing toads and tree trunks even as a group just aint fun).
This is my first (well not really - I bought EQ but that went back almost instantly) foray into MMORPG and will most likely be my last.
Soz, but I just can't see how it works, and would love some enlightenment.
BTW - I will most likely continue playing for a bit (u have to keep trying I spent 20 quid on this) - For Excal and Pryd which are the weakest realms currently?
