 This game is fantastic- if you can run it at it fullest it's not only marked by good gameplay, the graphics themselves can grip you as well, running at 144hz 1440p, its some of the most unique yet appealing artwork i have ever seen in an MMO. But one thing this MMO did wrong, the one the thing that hinders its perfection is its difficulty. From level 1-15 my time with wildstar is akin to playing the witcher 3 on "story only!" mode (the mode where everything is made of paper). Luckily, it can still be fun to gather up as many mobs as i can to knock them all down at once, but it's so easy that no matter how many i pull to fight me, i still win.
 
 Not everyone is like me though, in my first dungeon i found that the simple task of interrupting a 30 second cast was far more than some gamers could handle, but i wonder, wouldn't it be possible to segregate gamers somehow into their respective niche? You could do this in a number of ways, alternate zones for the same level range of varying difficulty, separate servers with separate difficulty levels, etc. The wildstar development team was familiar with how players in MMO's are typically solo, and typically avoid interaction with other players, but beyond that statistic, did anyone ever ask why? If you went to work each day with superpowers, would you need co-workers?
 
 I felt similarly about guild wars 2. I'd fall asleep at the keyboard during their hyped "dynamic events" which were easier than blinking. in this game, the hyped combat suffers the same fate, finely tuned and great, but still nap worthy as i solo with ease what the game considers to be a 2-person world boss. 
 
That is all.

			Not everyone will be up to speed as fast as you. Slog through it until you reach the higher levels where content really starts to bare it's teeth. You won't regret a minute of dealing with all that nonsense getting there. The fun tougher stuff is definitely worth it.
