I love playing Warhammer miniatures for 10 years.
I have 2 thoughts.
1. Warhammer miniatures lore is not well represented in that the identity of the Armies is lost. Instead we get hero classes that are detached from the Army identities. (those who play the miniatures game know what I mean). The cut of the capitols didn't help either in view of this identity loss.
So the WH clubs are no very hot to support the game like I thought they would. Most club WH players play Wow.
MMO players shoudn't care but support from the WH clubs IS needed as a further help for hype.
2. Animation and PvP fighting of the Avatars.
Game will succeed or fail on this and this feature alone. Believe me. Up to a month ago this was NOT well done. Every Beta tester I could speak to in RL and on forums acknowledged this. They reported it for months. We'll see...
The fanboys negate it or try downplaying it. But we will see it in a couple of days really.
Not to be a fanboi, read my post above yours, but animations play little a part. Just look at the game you play and love WoW. What awsome animiations are in there? My 70 MS warrior swings his mace the same way for every attack. My Warlock, Priest, Mage and Rouge attacks look mediocer. The flashiest of them being the rogue spinning when doing finishing moves.
And you wonder why they try to negate it? Just think about it for a second, have the dull animations of WoW hindered your playing experiance?
You must be blind I dont really like WoW but the caster animations are not bad at all. You will be dissapointed when mellee and spells in WAR look identical to WoW if not worse.

Its good to take precautions, but you seem to have come out of the experience without learning the most important lessons.
Those lessons were, that you are human, and can (and often will be) wrong. Also that you should never believe that your impressions about a game are 100% without a doubt correct, and that everyone that doesn't feel the same is wrong. You should always keep a mind open to being convinced otherwise. The experience SHOULD have humbled you.
AoC practically screamed this message in your ear, but I don't know if you were listening.
You are willing to admit that AoC was a let down despite your former impressions - that is a step forward. And again, precautions are definitely a good thing in the industry, so I don't begrudge you for that either. But I don't agree with replacing one mistake with another by taking an extremist view of WAR (in the negative) in place of an extremist view of AoC (in the positive).
Watch and learn.

Whats better is ignorant fanboys ike you.
If you say so. Unlike you I have know what the game is like. So call me ignorant all you want. Fanboy, yes, ignorant on what the game is? Nope, not like thoes of you making blanket statements without knowing the first thing about the game outside podcasts.
O Rly? get off deez
