Just wondered what peoples general opinions are on WAR. I notice a lot of people comparing this game to WoW. Having spent a loooonnngggg time playing wow (closed beta, open beta, retail until few months ago, all raids completed apart from Black Temple) I cant seem to find any real resemblence of the game at all, The graphics are slightly 'wow'ish ' and the first human scenario is very arathi basinesque but still I cant see to see where people get this 'wowhammer' thing from.
IF anything I would compare the game moreso to LoTRo. The movement reminds me a lot of that, the casting animations are similar and the towns and outposts are very reminscant of Tolkeins online world.
Just to say I love WaR, even though it kinda runs like crap on my PC I still find it very fun to play and amazingly it does run playable considering Im a million miles behind the sys requirements
Some of the cool stuff I have noticed
Being English! - This is just ace for me, I hated being in wow and with my American Gnome mage ! i like my olde english Bright Wizard.
The little cool things they have added in, like my BW every now and again while getting hit in combat yelling things like 'bugger' 'bastard' etc, very cool! Not much impact on gameplay but these little polished fun extras are what give a game character for me!
RvR is ace, its more than target nuke! I cant wait to get into some seriously organised scenarions and rvr zones to see the collission mechanics in play and how this will all fit in with tanking lines and back line nukers, apsolutely cant wait!
The PvE is also exceptional because it is all tied into this massive war thats going on, I really felt part of the conflict, doing my bit for the glory or Order and the Empire!
There are probably a million more things I will come across during my time playing warhammer, just wanted to start a bit of a discussion as I'm bored at work and sad that the OB has ended and I cant play WaR again now until the 18th
