I have been playing this since they let guardians in and I am almost 42. I have a rogue trickster female half orc named Whistleklik. So far I have to say it's a very forgettable game. The combat is pretty neat at first but with the lack of variety in skills it can get pretty dull. I have found that most skill for the class I have chosen are garbage. They let you choose your skills and improve them slightly with more damage or longer duration. The talent trees are terrible from what I have seen on my character. Put in a point to increase damage or whatever by .2/.4/.6/.8/1% type shit. It seems like a very guided system, possibly illusion of customization. The game allows you to also choose a specialization but the only one available for my class was infiltrator and there is a thing on the side saying more specializations coming soon.
The game seems very unfinished missing a class and a race with coming soon signs in place along with missing class components as said above. The companions in the game are basically pets. They have terrible pathfinding/ai and don't have any real interaction outside of putting in stones to improve them slightly. You can do the same to your gear with enchanting. The stones I have seen are basically +stats and sometimes +experience. Gear in general doesn't have a lot of variety so far. Mostly the same models with variances in color or things like missing sleeves or other parts of the armor removed to make it seem different.
Questing is standard mmo stuff. Go here collect teef and babies or kill monsters and touch that object to see what is does quest. The story stuff is not very interesting and seems to be bottom of the barrel. They have skirmishes which are basically mini dungeons or killing waves of stuff. I have only done three dungeons. The last one was with a dragon at the end that spawned infinite waves of fucking adds. The dungeons weren't really any fun and lacked character. They just seemed poorly put together. I have not tried pvp yet. I couldn't get anyone to answer my question if they were bracketed or use that bolstering bullshit that other games seem to do. As for the foundry I have not tried any of that stuff.
Most of the questing zones look ok. I don't really care for any of them. None of them are really well designed like some of the zones in other mmorpgs I have played. I would even say they seem very amateurish. The post processing I had to turn off because when you are in neverwinter it has this nasty looking smog effect. The voice acting is all over the place. Sometimes it sounds like the actors don't care or are being recorded through a logitech desktop mic. None of the music was very good. Sometimes it even seemed like the same song was playing all the time.
The pay store stuff seems ok outside of some really questionable prices on companions and mounts. One of the mounts was $40 bucks and one of the companions is $30. The companion price seems like a lot considering they have no story and you can't really interact with them outside of putting gear on them. Just something not to buy I guess. I don't think I would buy much of anything on there store to be honest. Seems like they have a shoddy strategy for me to be able to invest outside of the $60 I have for founders.
