Just got an email about a new video(GDC 2011) and I watched its entirety. I am pretty dissapointed in what was shown. It's like most recently released MMO's; they show you a bunch of flashy mobs that are meant to distract you from the awfulness that is modern MMO's.
Its pretty much like when I first saw gameplay trailers of SWOTOR, all character and mob models lack animation and interactivity. Brainless mobs just standing there repeating the same animation while they're gun is 2 inches from the person its attacking. I am not sure how anyone could have a great sense of combat or battle immersion with how painfully slow and repetitive the combat was. I can say that is one thing Funcom did right with AoC, the combat felt immersive to a point.
Maybe I am being a little too critical but I know I won't be trying the game out until after its well released and if reviews are good.
