You provided no facts, or anything as to why I should believe that the engine is "GOOD".

I never really expect much to exploration in themepark mmo's. I do like working out the way to find a datacron, but it's hardly exploration. I don't even know how they could implement it in a satisfying way that I would even care about. I just don't think it works in this kind of game. For the animations I agree, they're complete *****. Just the running animation alone is so stiff it's hard to imagine how that made it in. But I suppose they're limited in how animated they can be or something, I don't know the technical reasons behind it. You'd think some advancements in that regard would have been made over the past 7 or 8 years.

I guess I'm used to an open world, where you can explore, find hidden clues, small little towns, explore caves to gather materials and etc. Except in most other MMOs those small towns, hidden caves, (small clues?) all had something to do with another quest. Every area had a purpose, there were no places you could just go for the hell of it really.

The world wasn't linear? So those loading screens you had to use to go from zone to zone that broke the "open world" feel, that was open world? WAR disappointed me (keyword) because of that fact.

WAR disappointed me (keyword) because of that fact. Loading zones doesnt make it linear. When im on a quest and i have to run inbetween 2 mountains where theres no other way to go.. THAT is linear. Warhammer was not linear at all.

True, but if your going to have PvP, and have the same people that did "Wars pvp" and brag about it, then atleast make it good. Or dont put it in at all. Because at this point warzones are awful, boring, and have no incentives. I hope open world PvP is better once I get to it.
