Instead, for now, you team up with other players to fight computer-generated evil. And there's lots of it. I've put over 40 hours into the game, and I have yet to get to a spot where there's nothing left to do, and given that I see lots of players with a lot more experience that me still playing (and I haven't even seen over half the places there are to go), I suspect that I'll still find lots more to do. There are also two components of the game (task forces and supergroups) that I haven't even tried yet. Man, I just realized, I need to stop typing and start playing again!
The missions and story arcs are interesting, and like all good RPGs (MMO and not), it keeps you wanting to play to find out what's next. I haven't run across any nasty folks like one usually comes across in these games. A little harsh language, maybe, but there's an option to filter it out if that offends you. The character customization is fantastic. I haven't seen two players yet that vaguely looked the same.
A couple of tips if you get this game: 1) Although there's a good in-game tutorial to learn to play, do bother to read the manual. There's lots of good stuff in there, and the section on slash commands is not covered in the game, but essential if you actually want to play with other people (and you DO want to play with other people). 2) If you're new to MMORPGs, don't be afraid to approach people around the same level and ask them to team with you for a while, or better yet, help them in some non-profiting way, such as healing them in combat without them asking or holding (not damaging) their enemies. This helps the other player without sucking up experience they are probably trying to earn, and a lot of times, they'll ask you to join them unprompted. It's a lot of fun and you'll build a rapport with folks who like to game with you, something that's very helpful in accomplishing various missions.
I really do have to stop writing now, so get this game, get out there, and foil some diabolical plots!
