Stop making me want to play this game. It looks quite interesting from everything I have read, but every time I have tried a new MMO besides WoW (Vanguard, Age of Conan, Warhammer) the game has failed or I have lost interest! I don't want to curse another game with my bad luck!

Sounds cool. I would have liked to hear more about the wings, such as how they work, how fast, etc. In the review you say that you will say more about them later, but don't ever really except mentioning different colored wings for each faction and a "Wing Slot."

Next time insert a "More" break. It's in the composition buttons somewhere. This way it doesn't make me scroll down ten pages to see the next article. (Although I'm going to read all ten pages anyway.)

Picture that moment you get your level 40 mount in WoW Orius. Now imagine they only let you use your mount in certain zones and you can only use it for like 1 minute. That's the wings.

It's not that great until you pvp endgame.

I knew I missed something.

I'm writing a small follow up

Flying! http://shiningforce.net/blog/?p=100

lol that actually sounds pretty cool. Can you glide for longer than you can fly, or is it a hard 1 minute limit (barring items of course).

I'm not sure if gliding eats your flying time "slower" or not, but I think its the same. If you glide down a down hill slope for 30 seconds, it will eat 30 seconds of your flight time. The rate might be slower... But its still coming from the same flight meter.

Best to wait 6 months+ on a new MMO and see how it does. (Unless you just gotta play it ie Old Republic)
