Agreed. But I wanted to touch on this particular part. A lot of fans are banking on this game to bring back a lot of the things they found enjoyable about EverQuest. A lot of them are so blinded in that hope, that they actually get extremely defensive at the mere suggestion that some feature they "think" will be in the game might not be exactly what the devs have in mind.

Hence, the beginning of a glorious flamefest.

Many see Vanguard as thier last hope for an opportunity to "relive" thier glory days from EQ. The mere suggestion that it "might not" be exactly what they expect sends them into defensive mode, and brings out rants against WoW, EQ2, or whatever other game they consider "easier than EQ".

They ONLY see this ONE game. They CAN'T see the dozens on the horizon.
