It's pretty enjoyable, but there is a grind. And I can only imagine it gets worse. If you think leveling in WoW is at all an arduous task, then don't buy this game.

Crafting/Gathering/PvP are all ways to get experience. That part is pretty fun as they are some mini ways to break up the grind.

Personally I'm leaving it. Abyss PvP is pretty boring, most of the time it's just fort attacks or if you try and engage someone 1v1 they just run off and you can't say much about it unless you're a CC class.
The Fort attacks are boring if you're going to choose a melee class. It's pretty much range vs range while the Templars try and pull the random 1 or 2 attackers towards them.

Your cpu is kinda bad.

Why?

i just got it...kinda fun

Hate it. It's nothing but grinding. If you like killing the same group of mobs for a few weeks to go from 25-50, then play it, but if not, you'll hate it.

More than enough for aion.

I really thought this game was gonna be a spin off of Wow.
It's not, it's amazing. I'm addicted.

Just some heads up, if your a wow player and love pvp a lot! Then don't buy it, if its only for that.
Its much more pve-wise and you can't run around your enemy while spamming attacks like wow. ~You mostly standing still on one spot.
