Hi,
Last weekend when I was browsing in the electronic shop I came across with Warhammer Online Collector's Edition. I know every single single player RPG out there and played nearly all of them, but I know next to nothing about MMORPGs. So, this package was very cheap, 40 TL (nearly 25 $), my curiosity bested me and I bought it. It came with a heavy package with high quality manufactured artbook and comic book, also contains a Warhammer miniature and a mousepad.
And plus the game of course. So I decided to give it a try. Since 3 years passed since the release, EU servers were closed in that process, it took a bit of an effort to connect to the right servers.
Anyway I'm installing the 9 gb mega patch right now and want to ask you what should I expect from the game. I'm a total stranger to MMORPGs, haven't played Wow, Everquest or Ultima Online. I heard that online games are somewhat weak on story. But are the quests immersive and entertaining enough to keep me hooked to the game? Or they're simply 'hey hello, go fetch me 10 rabbit furs, by the way nice to meet you' style? Does Warhammer Online present interesting places to explore (I love free roaming in my RPG)? If you wil provide me some answers I will be appreciated.
By the way, I always love the art style of Warhammer world, a mix between cartoon feeling and dark atmosphere. Artbook has beautiful illustrations, so even the game is totally crap I think I did the right thing with buying it.
