Gonna Wait for Release Probably

I know the game is in Open Beta and it doesn't cost anything to try it out, so why not try it out? I decided to not try it out for two reasons. One, is because it takes 10 hours to download it for some reason. I'm only getting download speeds of around 100mb/s. Two, I've read plenty of bad things about the classes.

For instance, Knights cannot hold agro and Warriors have to use axes. I'm also not reading a lot of good about Dual Classes.

A friend of mine told me it's like a cheap version of WoW, except not nearly as good. Anyone with sense would bring up that RoM is free, but money isn't an issue for me, so I do compare the game to P2P games, especially since the game does bring in revenue, it just brings it in differently than subscription model games.

I bet RoM will be a good game one day and I will probably try it eventually, but the cons outweigh the pros currently.

    Then I'll wait until after they fix these problems. I also want to wait until they put in all the classes. Do you know if they are planning any character wipes, because I don't want to lose the work I put into my character.

    Thanks

    Hi,

    we're not planning any wipe after the OB - and Runewaker (the Devs) and we are working very hard to resolve any outstanding balancing issues quickly. We don't want to stay in Beta forever but release the game officially.

    Cheers,
