Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning - customer reviews:
Great Game with tons of potential.

This game is a really great game. For those of you that are looking for a "WoW" type game this is not it, this game is for one thing and one thing only and that is RvR. Realm Vs Realm combat is something that Mythic has invented and mastered.
Warhammer online does not offer a super rich PvE experience just yet but they have made vast improvements since the launch of thisgame to balance things out, fix bugs, and just overall improvement.
There is a ways to go on the path to perfection but after Dark Age of Camelot's successes and failures I think this company has learned a thing or two about customer satisfaction and listening to it's customers.
Pay to play beta!

The game has a lot of potential. It just feels like it was rushed onto store shelves. There are numerous in game bugs, and broken class mechanics, not to mention server population issues. Mythic has even decided to release two new classes before fixing the classes already in game. Give the game a year and it may be great, but until then expect a pay to play beta experience.
Best MMO in years!

Warhammer Online is a great game. It's only been out for a short time now and already has over 1 million subscribers. The RvR (or Realm versus Realm) experience take player versus player combat to a new level. There's a game here for everyone, whether you like to play alone, with groups against the game or with groups against other people.
They are already about to release several new classes and we're not even 2-months into release.
I already bought a 6-month subscription and I know that's only the start.
At least they patch it often....

It's not a very good game, the combat isn't fluid and it's boring to level (yes, WoW leveling is 100x more fun....)
Great, New Aspects for this genre

This game is designed well enough to capture your attention for many hours. The new aspects (tome, public quests, group friendliness, scenario, pvp, and more) introduced into the MMO scene are refreshing and will keep your attention away from the grind while still gaining considerable amounts of experience. If you are tired of your current MMO, this game is qualified to spend the money on.
