So I started this afternoon my adventures in hyboria.
First of all Character creation. When iplayed in open beta this was buggy for me. I needed to wait for 2 or 3 mins. before I could touch character options. Now I start and go go go all fine. So first one really nice.
After I created my character the game started. The cinematic movie for the start was diferent. There are some more sequences that I didnt see in open beta.
Then I started crushing enemies. Awesome, the game runs smooth and i see blood everywhere hahaha really fun.
My system specs are:
AMD Athlon 64 dual core 3800+ (Each core running at 2,0 ghz)
2 gigs ram kingston 800mhz
Nvidia 7900 gs 256mb
HD seagate 80gigs serial ata. 7200 rpm Cleaned and defragmented for the new install.
Windows XP 32 bits SP2
As you see is not a rig, is an average to good computer
As a note, when i play I disable my antivirus (AVG Free edition) and I dont load anymopre stuff. My system is pretty clean talking about spyware/adware/virus and so, so it runs very well.
The game runs fine. Sometimes I find have some glitches but really only from time to time. Zones loads really fast.
So in my opinion the game is awesome. The combat is fun and interactive. In the long run? Well I cant talk for the long run but the game is actually, for me, what I was waiting and hoping.
I had a 7900GT and found it lagged a bit and fps was low, even at low settings, so i got a new video card and have no problems now. Glad to hear you doing good with it though.

So your never going past level 20?
What do yo umean? I fought I can also play single player after 20 and level.
Nope, after level 20 its multiplayer, but the zones/instances have a max number of people allowed in them before a new one is made, so theres never more then 50ish people (i forget the exact number) with you, so competition for mobs and stuff isn't too bad.
Yeah its amazing. The water is absolutly beautiful. Theres this spot once you leave tortage, I forget the name, but its something like crows valley, anyways, you can stand in this spot and see this huge zone layed out with a couple villages and streams/rivers and stuff, and in the distance on the mountain a waterfall is cascading down.
At least with instances there is less competition from gold farmers for nodes and mobs.
There is no crafting until you hit level 40, so up till then everything you get is from drops. (at least until the trader starts working again and you can buy other people's items.) I don't know if level 40 crafters can make low level items to sell.
I know I read somewhere that they intend player made items to be roughly equal to drops, but that could always change. Hopefully not, but it could.
