I just started (at the part where you get an airship) and so far, the game's been pretty lackluster, both in terms of story and gameplay. I'm drawn to MMOs/ARPGs for the character customization (builds, stat points, skill trees, etc), combat mechanics, promise of taking down giant monsters / enemy guilds with a group, and getting cool gear that enhances your character in different ways and lets you take down bigger things. So far, the combat's been simplistic and nearly turn-based, gameplay is a bunch of linear fetch quests and lots of walking back and forth / trying to figure out where to go, the gear is bland (no interesting decisions to make), and the story is incredibly slow and uncompelling (feels like something that happens to you or you "follow along with" rather than actively participate in). Everything feels very slow/lengthy and not at all streamlined. I know it's relatively early, but besides the character models and taking pictures in gpose, there hasn't been much that's seized my interest. Do the later parts of the game have what I'm looking for in terms of gameplay, or am I better off playing something like Guild Wars 2?
