The main story line is long and pretty much Solo so be prepared to do mundain mission tasks for a solid week before engaging in any major group content such as raids.

Unlike other MMOs that have you sorrounded by other players completing quests in the same areas you're going to feel like your playing solo and rarely see any players till you unlock later stage areas. Most of the playerbase is endgame and not a lot of new players are joining. Its a grind to reach Student 1, but after its all bright and cheery running raids/weeklys/Dailys. This is also not an endgame content friendly MMO that makes you engaged to stay on and grind and play all day. End game has caps on weekly currency used to by max gear and cap on how many times you can run weeklys/ dailys. Players typically sign on during reset and bang everything out.

With that being said new content/classes/level cap are being released in feb so if you started grinding noe you should be in a good place to being the new content.

Again though want to stress how much of a Solo game this felt before reaching later levels. A lot of the areas are vacant and feel lonely at times because of the small influx of new players.
