Warhammer, the hype worth it?

I recently have quit WoW and gottne back into CS:S of course. But, on the side I was wondering about the newly hyped MMO, Warhammer Online.

Does anyone plan on buying this or even playing in beta? if so what server, just wondering if it's worth the money.

I have not played this game, but a friend told me it is was not worth it. He is a big GAMER, but this is second hand info.

I was a part of the closed beta, it was fun for a bout a week then I stopped playing completely. I'm an RPG fan, and I've played the warhammer table top games but I lost interest relatively quickly. There are some pretty cool new things that it brings to MMO's, I'm just not big into grinding so I got bored.

Ive gotta say, after watching a random Video of some Goblin Shaman, i think it looks like a massive Rip of WoW. I mean in the top right hand corner there is a circular mini map, in the bottom left there is a chat window. At the bottom there is your spell bar, and at the top there is your buffs. Not to mention that in the video a guy typed /cheer, and it did an identical action to wow, even the orange text in the dialogue box.

I do suppose tho, that Blizzard got it right, so any MMOs after it are gonna be very similar.

That's the hud layout that doesn't really show how similar they are. Most fantasy MMO's are going to be pretty similar anyway and its not like they are going to rearrange stuff so they can say its different than WoW. The PvP stuff was pretty fun I just didn't feel like grinding for levels.



Image was forced to be resized and quality was taken down some but you get the basic idea.

I just picked it up yesterday but since I don't have a computer to play it on I had to run it on my laptop - which made it lag hardcore because the graphics are more demanding than WoW. It was fun and I liked how you could PvP (or RvR) your way up in level but it takes a while longer. The questions seems more fun and interesting than in WoW - they make it so most challenges AREN'T the same except for obvious creep killing quests. From what I have played it is great.
