MY OPINION
Wildstar is a sci-fi MMORPG, a hybrid of: Wow, Guild Wars 2 and Runes of Magic, Comicon funny anime elements (moxie is one of the stats). It is a complex game, fun, focused especially on the move as a strategy to fight. Wildstar music makes me think of the movie Star Wars. Graphic style is extraordinary, graphics elements that make me think of high class animation from some cartoons.
Skills are unique and require time to understand:
brutality (critical)
finesse (power)
moxie (critical hit rating)
tech (deflect)
insight (suport power)
grit (hp)
Abilities are divided into several categories:
assault (attack)
support (heal and buff)
utility (stun, freez, focus)
path (falling slow, save positions on the map)
There are special abilities, called AMP's. Starting at lvl 6, you get points that can be assigned in AMP tree, opening in four main directions: assault, support, hybrid A / U and hybrid S / U. When i got the lvl 10 skills, i lived a revelation. New ways to fight, and new strategy revealed, made me change my skill bar.
At every step, there are various buffs obtained from: npcs, robots, sevices, "food", potions (exp 10% healt 3%, etc). There is Titles with no effects, reputation with various factions (like wow) and npcs that sell equipment, weapons and other items, according to reputation.
The quests are: simple, specific (path), challenge (time limit missions that occur when you do not expect, while you concentrate to do normal tasks, and they give different rewards, if accomplished in the allotted time, sometimes working difficult) achievements. There are group finder system. The "V" key is for loot. You can receive updates and reward in quests, moving on the map, without having to go to the npc.
Wildstar transportation sistem is extremely diverse: by kurg caravan, boat, taxi (taxi kiosk unlock the map), airplanes, various floating platforms, spacecraft. By water you can travel much faster than when you walk on the ground, unless the direction you want to go corresponds to the stream or waterfall. When I received the assignment wich specified that i must gather fireflyes, I could not find any fireflyes, then I realized that if I get on mushrooms, it propels me into the air, and there, in full bounce, I found full of fireflies. Much of missions and jumping puzzles rely on these kind of character jumping "like in platform games". There are geysers that blow you up, various jets of wind, water, waterfalls, that trow you into the air. Various areas has to be explored by jumping (like "jumping puzzles" in GW2), at the end of which you'l find an npc with reward (sometimes do not know whether to go up or down).
In Wildstar is impossible not to love the battle system and freedom of movement. Also you find jokes everywhere, funn level, immense open world and content, all makes this game to be a delight. I do not understand the tracking system offered by the quests, but do not forget that we are in beta. Sometimes it is difficult to find a skill trainer, or other npc due to the huge world full of content. I think housing system differentiate Wildstar from other games that offer this sistem. It seems that the experience gained in housing after lvl caps, turns in curency coins that you can use to buy various decorative objects needed in housing. I'm very curious what gives Wildstar, in the "end game content".
I do not see how it can recommend this game to a player who is already "caught" in other MMORPGs. I do not think it's worth switching to this game especially as it anticipates a monthly fee (Purchase your copy of WildStar, which includes 30 days of game time, after that period of time you have to pay monthly but it looks like you can buy monthly charge with "in game money"). During OBT's, chat game was full of people comparing Wildstar with Wow. There is other way? I say you can! Wildstar is a viable alternative to Wow, possibly to GW2 to. If you want more fun and more action and motion? Go for it!
