Pros: ; Lively combat makes for fun group questing . Diplomacy gameplay is an enjoyable way to involve players in NPC dialogue. The complex crafting is interesting and rewarding..
Cons: ; Bugs, bugs, and more bugs. Forced grouping will leave solo players cold. Stiff death penalty and lack of instanced dungeons are as frustrating now as they were in EverQuest's early days..

Vanguard: Saga of Heroes


Summary: The name of the game is Vanguard: Saga of Heroes. In a sea of bigger and better MMORPGs, this one was very anticipated by many. Sigil gives it their best shot as they pair up with Sony Online Entertainment to bring the MMO world a game that certainly will keep you busy for many hours. Read the full review
Verdict: Overall Vanguard isn't a bad game, but it doesn't really bring anything new to the table of the MMO industry. While there are many races and classes to choose from, they seem to be variations on the standard theme of fighter, magic user, healer and rogue. The progression is heavily quest based and doesn't leave a lot of room for doing
