Had they released S4 prior to the AoC launch, I would've been more interested in WoW, fighting my way to 2200 to be done with the rankings grind and kick back on my Vengeful mount.
But, that's not the case, so two fingers up to you Blizzard.
So I bought AoC to compliment my new PC and put my Mage up for sale as soon as I saw the lush graphics, the engrossing storyline (I never got into Quests/Lore in WoW but AoC is just amazing), and I even have the sound on, because it's that damned good.
I rolled a Conqueror, and it's probably one of the most underpowered classes, a buff-bot who can dish out some decent DPS and half-tank some mobs, but will require some skill to be good at, and will hopefully get buffed a little.
Had to be female, since they look hot (not in a nerdy "ooh pixels" *fap* kind of way), and I donned my loincloth and started beating down some Pikeys Picts utilising the awesome combat system where you smash the key which corresponds to the direction you want to attack in.
Anyway, I'm not going to do a review, this is just me writing whilst I can't play AoC due having had a 10 hour session earlier *
*.
The storyline is pretty gripping which is a first for an MMO, in my case, and there is an optional night-time mode where you can venture into the single-player part of the game where you fulfill your 'destiny', for those who are interested in character storyline developments e.t.c
But obviously the best part of the game is the multiplayer part, and what makes AoC the ultimate PvP game is not just the guild interactivity (my guild has a 'keep' which can be taken over by others), but the PvP servers (If you roll PvE you've chosen the wrong game -__-) are FFA (free for all) which just kicks ass.
How many times have you wanted to kill someone on your same faction? In AoC you can quest with a guy when you need to kill hordes of mobs, and when you've finished you can kill/camp him afterward after he/she's served his purpose for you.
This is a situation I had last night, at level 14.
- See Level 16 Barbarian -
- Start Ganking, the dumb ****** can't hit me since I'm actually moving -
- He dies, I go to where he spawns and kill him again, and again...and let him go -
- See him later and start camping -
- Tell from Player X : "CAN YOU LET ME PLAY PLEZ I PAY FOR THIS GAME TO PLAY NOT DIE FFS" -
Now, I was creasing so hard, because everytime I ganked him I'd see him give up and say "noob", or "******* you" or some other foreign person's broken English garbage, and then to get a tell from the guy, to be glad that I can't get banned for camping/swearing, unlike a certain other MMO.
So like I said, I'm not going to review the game, there are plenty out there, and tbh just buy it, if you don't like it sell your account 
Now, the interesting thing is I logged back into WoW and really hated it (WTS Full Venge Mage 5k arena points kkthx) but then when I log in AoC there is always some prick in the global channel who talks about how he hates AoC and is going back to WoW.
To people who say that, no need to tell us that's your perogative since we don't care and you can **** off back to your casual-orientated, fairly easy to play, game.
But it interested me why these people say these things.
I came up with answers.
1) They can't stand a few bugs in the game, understandable, but don't slate the game, come back in 2 months or so if you can't hack it.
2) They keep getting ganked because no-one likes them and they suck, therefore have no chance of hitting level 80, in which case I would say go back to WoW since PvE servers suck.
3) They're ex-PvE-******* from WoW and don't understand why spamming one button doesn't work (shielding system means you have to attack in different directions or you'll gimp your damage a lot).
4) They are ex-PvP-noobs who really suck at WoW (LOL?) and can't hack AoC.
To those 4 GTFO my game and leave us to it, enjoying the luscious scenery and lovely fatalities.
To everyone else, who is even vaguely interested, if your PC can handle it, just go out and buy it, it pwns.
