I see a lot of whining in these forums, but I must say: while some things could be perfectioned, this game is Awesome with a giant capital A.
I’m very much a pvp player normally, but now I’ve been hooked to the pve side and am constantly amazed on how much of detail went into this game, and I’m not just talking environment. There are tons of little stories in it; every second npc that you can talk to has something personal to say. And then there are all these little gems like the silly pygmee moa dance in Beetletun or the enthusiastic quaggan calfs following your every move at Sanguine Bay and many many more. What an incredible work and effort went into this. Really, really nice stuff! In this for years!
