Comment This "review" was just an uninformed rant (Score 1) 135
I am amazed this "review" got linked to Slashdot. This has lowered my estimation of Slashdot that they think a WoW fan rant is news. It wasn't a review but an uninformed rant. They guy admitted he didn't know much about the game because he had not played very long.
His list of criticisms included the fact that the mobs seemed to be just standing around waiting to be harvested. I have played most of the MMOs on the market, and I can verify that the mobs in Vanguard act exactly like the mobs in all of the other games, including WoW.
He also complained that the colors weren't bright, and the whole world didn't look color coordinated, well, that's about what you would expect from someone who spent the last two years inside a WoW induced coma where everything is painted in garish colors and the entire world looks like a cartoon set.
He criticised the quest system, the death system, the Diplomacy and crafting systems. If I didn't know that he played WoW, I would think he didn't like MMORPGs at all. Why is this WoW fan rant newsworthy?
