I played DAOC for about 2 years and liked it quite a bit. I pre-ordered the WAR collectors edition the same day I canceled my AOC account due to lack of post 80 gameplay. After getting into the closed beta and then checking it out again a few days ago I have to say that I'm very disappointed. I actually canceled my pre-order. The gameplay might be pretty good but the graphics are so bad that they're actually a step back from WoW. How can a game that's coming out almost 4 years later have worse textures and poly details? The spells look awful and the time that your characters wait between attacks looks downright awkward.

I was disappointed going back to WoW's graphics after delving into Age of Conan but after playing WAR I gotta say that Blizzard's doing pretty good.

No amount of pvp gameplay can force me to endure that crap.
