Waiting for Wildstar


The next game on the horizon I've got my eye on is Wildstar Online.

It's probably got game-play very similar to WoW, but it looks like it has a really fun style to it with a lot of humor, which I find very appealing. It's almost cartoon-like in appearance, which to me is better than trying to go for a very realistic look. Sort of like a Shrek movie with a bit more adult humor.

I've applied for a beta invite, but nothing in my inbox yet. I have a few days left on my WoW subscription, but I haven't really done anything there in a few weeks. I just want something really new and different, and while I'm not sure Wildstar will fulfill that, I'm willing to give it a shot.

In the past, there have been some betas that really turned me off to the games, like Rift and Warhammer. I came to see very quickly that they were just World of Warcaft re-treads with some slight differences. Wildstar could be more of the same, but I see a real hint of fun that the others were lacking.
