Wow... you guys weren't kidding, leveling up in this game sure is fast... and... fun...

No, I was also hoping for a discussion but it quickly went into "just quit u retard", "lel must be a troll the story is so good so good" and other genius replies. So I decided to not be so nice and call the game awful because to me it so far is. No one actually posted any counter argument that made sense. The most i got from all the rambling is that I cant complain about the story because im skipping it, even though it's absolutely awful, boring and repetitive from the dialogues I did read and from the quest marks I see all the time. It's just horribad and I was told multiple times before creating a char how good and fun leveling is thanks to the story.

But I actually find leveling up to be so tedious and boring and discouraging. And the setting, factions, everything is so uncaptivating that i dont care for anyone in this game. They all look, act and seem generic and paper thin. The quests re all the same, instances are all the same, fighting is all clicking 2 buttons, it's so bad that i have to alt-tab to not feel guilty about wasting time. And this is just my opinion, based on leveling from 1 to 16 on Mage(thing class, long name) and from 1 to 26 on Gladiator. And I know it doesn't get any better at least until the expansion.

Also, playing MMO for a story is really dumb. You can do it, but it's like playing Diablo 3 for 1v1 brawls, or buying Starcraft 2 for Tower Defense maps.
