so it sounds like this game is a buggy mess. perhaps I should wait....
You should obviously wait. There are two (?) famous bugs. One has been fixed yesterday and the other is is "maybe" fixed - it worked for me anyway. If you think these things outweigth your enjoyment of the game then you should not play it. I am really not sure if you are that interested in it ("low player count", "buggy mess", "not much interest here").
If I had a nickel for every time I heard that....
And? It's true. Servers are stable, first update was swift and smooth, everyone seems to enjoy their times. Why not say it out loud? Funcom has gotten shit for their launches and now that they put out a very smooth mmo launch people can't hear it? Come on.
I played this for some hours - its FUN!
All the names I wanted were already taken so I called my guy "Hazelnut" (like Hazel from 30Rock) lol

Nice! I see you have the German client. How are the translations? Is everything voiced and translated in German? I enjoy the english VO but I am just curious of how the German game is.
