Pretty interesting free MMO game. It seems very very much like Warhammer and World of Warcraft rolled into one. Visuals are pretty neat, classes and races are awesome. Apparently its made by a russian company or whatever and is by far the most expensive free MMO to date, costing 12 million dollars to make. Ive been playing it and so far its pretty awesome, very fun and plenty of population. Give it a look and give it a try, so far its sated my World of Warcraft addiction lol. Two servers and so far, I cant really tell which is more populated etc, plenty of US and European players, so you'll run into english speakers basically.

You weren't kidding when you said a mix of Warhammer and WoW, it honestly looks like Warhammer with Wow's art style.

But my question is, how's the grind? And how is the late game stuff?

I was turned off of WoW from the fairly pointless grind and Warhammer lacked any late game shit.

Also how is the customization? Can I change what the armor looks like and the color? Or is it going to be everyone running around in the same armor late game?

(Please tell me there are firearms, I want to play a cyborg psychic zombie with a god damn gun for once!)

EDIT:

Any time you die, there is a (10%?) chance an item will be cursed, which means its stats will be inverted. You can buy holy charms from the cash shop or AH to prevent a curse, although a charm will be consumed every death regardless of whether or not an item will be cursed. You can also buy a scroll from the cash shop or auction house to remove a curse.

Is this still in effect? It seems completely fucking pants on head retarded that if I die I ether have to fork out money to fix the item or just get a new item all together.
