Critic Reviews for WildStar
For those burnt out on WOW's content, WildStar is easy to endorse. Immediately familiar to anyone who's visited Azeroth and with enough new twists on the tried-and-tested theme park formula, Carbine's game is so overflowing with stuff to do that it's certainly justified in asking for a subscription - even if less people seem prepared to sign up to one. It's more difficult to recommend WildStar to those who've tired of the MMORPG treadmill and its incessant need to put characters through the same old process of grinding quests and raids to reach a level cap and acquire the best gear. As much as WildStar seems to effortlessly hit all the right notes, essentially the song remains the same.
Clever questing and a stand-out combat system make for an entertaining MMO that's as large as it is full of character.
WildStar's success is built on the shoulders of MMORPG giants, but its colorful personality sets it apart.
Wildstar is familiar territory, but it's smartly made and fun nonetheless
WildStar is a colorful and traditional online role-playing game that evokes the compulsive need to fight everything you can fight, and click everything you can click.
WildStar is a deep endgame experience for veteran MMORPG gamers, but a daunting task for first-time players.
To be clear, WildStar is not an easy game and leveling can be difficult on your own without support. PVP was also an uphill battle because such a fast-paced game does need to be smoother in order to create a chaotic, yet still fun experience.
