This game makes me feel like I suffer from a really terrible case of bi-polar disorder. When I first started I thought it was terribly disappointed. It's just WoW in space, with color by numbers attacks. Then I started really delving into the game and I realized it was a little different than that and was actually a lot of fun. Then I got stuck. It's fucking Warcrarft again, why? What happened to the interesting parts? Why is every fucking enemy in every fucking zone the same? I'm sick of fighting stylized pumas and giant scorpions. I thought Nexus was a thriving planet of diverse fauna/natives? So far I've only seen like 10 - 15 creatures on the planet.
And that's fucking bullshit. You can hide the grind by slapping new shiny shit all over it. I really enjoy the monster design for the most part (fuck skrabs, stop with the giant scorpions) and I would appreciate a wider array of them. Maybe there's more, but as of 32 there isn't and that's sad.
If I'm going to have to grind through crap, at least make it fun too look at. Zone design suffers from this as well, in my opinion. It's just not that interesting. I haven't come across any interesting landmarks or anything of the sort and I've completely explored each map I've been in to cull some of the leveling drag.
TL;DR, I don't know what I expected but it was for sure different than what I got.
P.S. Fuck farside and it's monochromatic color palette. I'm an art student, this makes me sad.
