That was where the game really fell down for me, it was completely sub-par any time you weren't in a PvP battle of some sort. I presume the end game also sucked, but I never made it that far.<br /><br />I don't really think that it's fair to criticize games based on the Warhammer IP for haveing a WoWish art direction. Games Workshop invented that art style, and Blizzard ripped it off. Anything that is true to the IP is going to resemble WoW. And like it or hate it, the art style is one of the most distinctive features of the WH minatures game. <br /><br />The other really distincive feature, of course, is that there are a ton of different factions that all play somehwat differently. Mythic screwed the pooch really hard by trying to boil that depth down to two factions.<br /><br />All that said, I haven't the foggiest idea whether WH 40K will suck or not. WAR, in space, with three or more factions, PvE that doesn't bite monkey 'nads, and a functional endgame would actually be pretty fun imo.Yeebohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08028940396189544294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829401646612727780.post-51207076485699253012010-08-22T00:50:24.706+01:002010-08-22T00:50:24.706+01:00Well, I hope it's good.

It's an awesome IP.Stabshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08716211705647213383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829401646612727780.post-4262360899854334082010-08-21T16:14:04.765+01:002010-08-21T16:14:04.765+01:00While I think it's still way too early, but no...While I think it's still way too early, but no matter I am still waiting with anticipation.Jayedubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07437007861375094683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829401646612727780.post-72653146279406351382010-08-21T15:12:43.321+01:002010-08-21T15:12:43.321+01:00Yeah....
