Does this game offer any sort of buddy or trial keys yet for people who want to try it out. I had fun in the first GW, but I have no clue what this game is like. I have not followed it much and have not seen gameplay yet other than a few videos online. Just looking to give the game a try, don't really want to spend $60 to try it with all the mixed reviews I'm seeing floating around this game.

No, and it'll likely be some time before that comes down the pipe.
Buy it. You'll love it.
The Deep Web is sca-ry.
What are points from those "mixed reviews" that are bothering you?
Cause probably the most "mixed reviews" will be complaining about lack of end game content (read gear treadmill and raids), lack of trinity, lack of traditional questing, more action oriented combat, limited number of skills you can use.
Since you enjoyed GW most of them will be moot to you, other than the more action oriented combat (and maybe you liked to search amongst hundred of skills for 5 or 6 useful).
On the other hand if what you looking for is Hall of Heroes and GvG, then the game isn't for you.
