Many questions

Ok, I will admit that I am 100% new to this game. I have been playing Warcraft for awhile, but the World internet game is new to me. I will admit this game seems interesting to me as I have only been playing for 2 days...but...one thing I do not like is the battle system. Am I doing something wrong or is it it just---you hit----the monster hits back----you hit---etc---until one of you dies?? Is there a strategy that I'm missing here? Can you avoid being hit? I just run up to something and get into a punch for punch battle with them until they drop dead. If that's the way it goes, it seems stupid. All these good reviews make me think I'm missing some element of fighting. The graphics are cool and the game seems to have potential but there has to be more to the battle system. Any advice??

addicting but...

I am fed up with this good game. yes it is good, but once at 60 if you are not in a good raiding guild you wont see better armor/weapons that are boa epic. There is too much reliance on needing other people to help you achieve getting the "best" stuff. This turns me off and probably the solo player. I would consider playing more if the best gear in game was available and possible to get by soloing, but until then I feel once you hit 60, as a soloist, it is a waste of time.^M

Easy to pick up and fun to play

Anyone with a background in RPGs will enjoy this game. If you've played Diablo II you'll pick it up really quickly. Runs smooth as silk and graphics look great even with a GeForce 7300LE. The size of the game is immense and lends itself to nearly eternal playability. This is both good and bad given the monthly charge to play. Still not on board with paying $15/mo to play a game, but giving a shot none-the-less because it's so engaging.
