Just spent the day looking at up and coming MMORPG's and two look promising: AC2 and World of Warcraft. I know these are safe bets that everyone will play atleast for a short time, but AC2 seems to have made some great fundamental leaps from Ac. Such things as not having to buy comps/arrows ect to having health/mana regenerate quickly to make it easier at lower lvls. The screenshots look awesome but graphics alone will not keep you playing a game as I am sure most of us have learned. The classes so far truly seem to be unique and sounds like questing is going to take on a much more central roll. If Turbine can make a game that breaks the tedium of lvling, STOPS MACROING BEFORE IT STARTS and integrates users into fabric of the storyline, AC2 could rock. Pking is what made me keep lvling in AC and it was great fun to raid and duel. Hopefully they will have a PK server equivalent to DT and if you throw a multitude of fun quests in there it will be fun for years. The control over your char that AC has is great and is what AO lacked as well as DAOC. Things like godmode and jumphealing and simply the ability to avode war spells made the game actually fun. I cannot wait till late 2002!!
