Still on the fence on whether to buy or not...

Well - atmosphere in the game is okay, some quests are very well crafted and rather much more difficult then the run of the mill MMO quests, other quests are run of the mill kill quests.
The jack-of-all trades ability system might appeal to some, might not to others. The game is rather gear centric though.
PvP wasn't my bag in this game.
However I can't get over how awful the interface is and how sucky the inventory management is and so on. The interface is easiest the biggest drawback in this game for me.
Then on top of that - it's subscription based (bit higher price than normal for EU/UK it seems) with a cash shop with rather high prices if you want to look good killing zombies.
But the interface, the inventory .... yikes. It's more scary than the zombies
The community also seems rather annoying much of the time. Half the time it's a circle pat on the back about how intelligent "the community" are and how much better everything is compared to WOW and the other half of the time it's berating anybody who dares to utter anything against the game
But - well - /ignore exists for a reason.
Oh and negative item ... it's Failcom.
All in all - it's an okay filler game IMO, but unsure whether it's worth more than a month at the moment - but I'll certainly shelve it when Guild Wars 2 comes and maybe pick it up again when it goes F2P in about a year or less .
Life time subs? People must be insane to stump up for them nowadays, what with new MMOs generally being terrible and only really last for 6 months at most.
True, but with the new EU ruling, it should be possible to sell them on: http://massively.joystiq.com/2012/0...gital-distribution-to-allow-game-transfers-m/Life time subs?

hmm cant login for some reason, keeps crashing to desktop when I try :x
Drivers up to date? It seems rather picky about the graphics card drivers.
good and bad news for Funcom

The share drops are quite significant but I like how they say they have a lot of future content planned for TSW, still enjoying the game for now and I havent even dipped into that far yet for once i'm actually taking my time with an MMO.
The issue with sub prices are they're higher than normal on top of a cash shop......
Really? Ive done most of kingsmouth now and haven't had problems with any yet. lots of people moaning about the raven quest, but its just user error on that one.Running into broken and bugged mission after mission. Reminds me I'm playing a Funcom game ....
