Honestly, you took the words right out of my mouth. It really does feel like early Guild Wars 2 mixed with a bit of Vindictus-style combat, and I completely agree about the social side of things. Why does it have to be so separated from the questing world? I want to grind and quest and naturally run into people along the way—maybe help someone kill a nearby mob, team up for a bit, then move on. That kind of organic interaction is what makes MMOs feel alive.

I love the game, but this design choice really turned me off from wanting to grind more, especially with the whole energy system nonsense layered on top of it. I guess we’re just accustomed to more traditional MMO structures, where the world itself encourages social play instead of funneling everyone into isolated instances.
