Graphically a cut above Age of Conan which is already a cut above the rest...

The main emphasis in this game is PvP isnt it? Im a PvE kind of guy, mainly solo with some group action so I am not sure how this will be for me.

I reserve judgement :)

have you?

I have tried both (WAR at my friends house), and AOC is more detailed and graphically intense than this game. Too bad AOC goes backwards every day. This game really does look like WoW 2.0, which isn't bad, just not what I'm looking for.

Nope I sure haven't. Which is exactly why I'd like to try it. I didn't state that I had. That being said if your friend feels the same way....well you get the idea, I'll gladly accept his login information. ;)

looks like a slightly better quality version of WoW.

Yeah I'm pretty disappointed in how that looks, I hate the way WoW looks (gives me a headache). :(

Was looking forward to it as well.

WoW is gonna get an optional graphics upgrade when WotLK comes out. WH looks kinda lame. Have fun balancing all the classes.

That video looks a lot like WoW to me, just with a little less purple. As other s have mentioned, I can't imagine how they are going to balance all of those classes for PvP, sounds like a bit of a nightmare.

I understand that part of your post, not sure about the rest.

I also don't really follow WoW, but it seems to me they would be better off here making fewer classes and having them a little more balanced, since this is supposed to be a pretty heavy PvP-oriented game, which could be why they eliminated some of those classes recently, I don't know.

WoW balance doesn't exist. A few overpowered classes and combos are winning all the tournaments / arena seasons. (See listed above)

And this is happening in a game where both sides have the exact same limited number of classes.

You're never going to have "balance" in a mmorpg.

If you've played both like I have I really don't see how you'd say that. The art direction is very different.

I've been enjoying AoC during my 5 month break from WoW. The other day I checked the WoW forums and rogues are STILL OP as hell. I just don't understand why a company such as Blizzard would let that shit happen for so long. Same thing during the Warlock days, OP for a long ass time, then nerfed to shit.

this is the 2nd video of the game that has made me think it looks like WoW.

too bad they didn't show the UI. it's a blatant copy of WoW's UI.

It is a darker looking WoW. Both are taking their styles from the same sources. And Warhammer lore has been around a lot longer than Warcraft.
