Ok, so a simple explanation for all the negative reviews is that the lag and connectivity issues make for a pretty hit or miss experience. However, even with moderate lag and constantly relogging I've been enjoying myself. I understand that the server is under tremendous load due to the popularity of this game and the hype leading up to it. Coupled with the fact that everyone has shunned one of the servers because they fear a toxic community after the Brazillian members claimed that server as their own. Which has caused everyone else to flock to the one remaining NA server, and what does that cause? Lag and connectivity issues.

There are a few other things that are being pointed out such as the trading and auction system being restricted and less than what we expect from most MMO's now a days, on the one hand I agree it's pretty bunk, but on the other hand I think it's better than what Blizzard did with D3 when they wanted to get away from gold sellers after creating a mess for themselves.

As far as asthetic, gameplay, and OST this game is top notch IMHO. There is a plethora of classes and items, an immense number of zones, and I think 500 levels of content. It's a big undertaking and while I think IMC could do better in handling these things, it's only been out ~2 weeks and that's early access. So I am hopeful that these things get addressed, and if they don't then it was a potentially great game gone to waste.

Slowest development ever, shows a lot of promise though.
