For anyone who cares, here's my opinion on the game:

I found it just a really old version of WoW that was worse than anything Blizzard ever produced. 

PVE was a continuous tread mill of quests, each quest lead you to the next and it felt like I was an Ass with a carrot in front of me. I thought I could live with the cartoony art style, but eventually it really started to grate at me and took the fun out of exploring the world.
The higher I got through levels though the more repetitive it felt, I've gotten to level 18 & I've given up.

I bought my house and went inside... it's tiny, basically same space as someones rumpus room. It was seriously fucking disappointing after all the hype.

There's no depth to character creation at all. Every class is pigeonholed, the decision to tie races to factions and restrict some classes from some races is also very unappealing to me.

This all being said, the game is a long ways from finished, the PATHS need more fleshing out, animation running on some races really need to be fixed. Positive notes were the puzzles tied into some quests to keep it fresh, and the hover boards and double jumping.

tl;dr
The quest interface and linear questing just sent me fucking bananas. PVP is unbalanced.

The more I play this game, the less I like it.

So anyone still playing this? 

I'm looking for a beta key, don't have a curse premium count though.  Anyone got one they can share pls? ;o

just follow wildstar on twitter, they're always retweeting sites that are giving away beta keys.

Nah.

A friend sent me a beta key I don't intend to use.  If you want it, send me a PM.

I got a beta invite in my email today. Maybe i'll actually log in and try it.

I have one, I will not use it.

Another 10,000 beta keys being given away if anyone who still doesn't have one wants one. 6,202 left last I checked.

Jumped in to open beta. I really like the creativity of some of the abilities, and the combat seems active enough to be quite interesting. I like it!

it's also one of the most complete MMO's I have ever seen at launch; raids, PvP, housing, challenges, crafting, paths, achievements, and more.  Every possible mechanic or system is there to give different types of gamers what the are looking for.  Most MMO's these days launch with only 50% of this stuff finished.  The only thing missing is guild housing and warplots sort of fill that void for now.

Plus from what I hear they plan on a bi-weekly release cycle with no expansions same model DDO used for years.

I like the concept of the shorter action bars as well.  In SWTOR, I often found in other MMO managing 20-30 abilities just gets in the way of actual game play and movement.
