Completely agree. I think we'll all experience the world differently if left largely to our own devices - it's nice to get lost exploring the vistas, or searching for an undiscovered poi... I can get locked and loaded on a specified path so easily. I'm already at Level 9 - and I've *just* started my personal quest. I spent the first 8.5 levels exploring, joining events and getting (happily) lost while trying to discover just one more spot... :-D

Excellent post. Tyria is gorgeous and interactive. After finding a Vista in Divinity's Reach, I was able to jump down to a rooftop - I then amused myself mightily by running and jumping from rooftop to rooftop. Can't remember a time in an MMO I've been able to do anything similar. While it can be hard to let go of the 'Wow mindset," it most definitely proves worth it.

Jeepers. Strangely hostile commenters. Great review. Keep up the excellent work :-)
