Already been beta testing. The graphics and feel are like WOW only better. Character creation is decent - the way battle goes is a bit unique - and no itemcentricity at all. You pick your weapons and clothes from the getgo - the only effect they have is that two hander will give you a little more damage while sword and board will give you a little more defense. Other than that, the damage and effects come all from the abilities you've chosen for battle, not the items. Only problems so far are CTD bugs just from selecting certain menus and rubber-banding types of lag that occur frequently (it IS closed beta). I really like the scope, and it only proves that itemcentricity really can be a nil point and skill and when to use your abilities can be the fun - except there are no polearms....=(
