Phase 2 is just a worse phase 1

Now first off I understand that not everything on the phase 2 content is suppose to be in at launch, even though it is marketed as such and in the fine print we see that most of the new coming systems are probably months away, but what has actually changed? We got two new races that are just the human model with a bigger nose and probably one of the least immersive dwarfs I have ever seen but other than that, what direction is the game going?

It is really strange to me that the devs working on this project have such a range of good vs bad ideas. Sometimes it feels like this game will finally be the game we have all been waiting for and others it just feels like all 5 devs working share a single brain cell with the patches and hotfixes brought in.

I think every comment I read regarding having one server leant the same way but apparently the issues were ignored and now we have an environment where there is still ( after months of feedback ) not enough copper, not enough mobs for people to level, zerg guilds controlling everything, leveling is the exact same as phase 1 but worse? It's still just 100 hours of brainless mob grinding.

Where is the story arch's, where are the new weapons, where is the content in the new zones? Maybe you should use your internal team to test leveling because I'm pretty sure if another wipe happens people will just quit and wait for launch.

Please add weapons and armour on other levels than 0-10-20, please add some sort of quest line for solo players, please fire whoever is building the character creator and remove this place holder trash we currently have. The worst part is the only feedback that is ever even received is that of streamers, if asmon sais jump intrepid are two seconds away but if the rest of the entire community gives feedback on broken systems it seems like it's not even received.

    Yeah the server over population is very frustrating. It is not fun having to compete for a camp from one group and then doing it again for another. Everquest learned this lesson(Instances), but apparently just like Human History, nobody learns from the mistakes.

    I do NOT in anyway understand why the lowest form of material needed is the rarest. That makes no sense on any planet. Copper would be more valuable than gold if this was the way in reality. FIX COPPER.

    I 100% agree with a solo option. It is fun to group, but if you cannot get a camp, or nobody is interested in you, or cannot find a tank/Healer, then there needs to be other options. This is quickly becoming a non-casual(Need a minimum of 2 consecutive hours to play) game. I am not sure how popular that structure will be in the end.
