    Is Trove the kind of MMOG that I'd like to spend a part of every day in? No. But it is an MMOG that I'd enjoy visiting every now and then, possibly several times a week.

    Trove is an ok game. It's far from perfect but it guarantees considerable amount of fun. You get interesting new ideas, a diverse world and really cool classes but it could be so much more. The combat is too simple, the endgame is repulsive and lobby queues are extremely long. It's "pretty good" right now and on its way to "very good" in the future.

So many things to do, to see, and to master. Very simple, and very easy to get hooked. Once you are hooked this game presents itself with something for everyone from craft buffs to exploring and conquering dungeons, to building you own world WORLD (yes world). Yes the ques are long - the reason I give it a 9- but you're well rewarded with a completely free to play game. Finally a game that is free to play, and definitely not pay to win. HIGHLY recommended if you're looking for something different, vibrant, and refreshing!… Full Review »

They are making changes to this game that will make it severelyRecent and upcoming changes have cause me to reduce my score from a 7 to a 2. They are making changes to this game that will make it severely P2W and even MORE grind heavy.
    Pros:
    +Minecraft had a child with Guild Wars 2
    + Lots of classes (14) unfortunately can only be unlocked from the store with credits now.
    +Lots of players
    +Weekly updates with bug fixes and content
    +Public Test Server (the best part about this game , accessible when you have any max lvl class on the live server, however this may change soon with their upcoming P2W revamp)
    +More colors then minecraft
    +Fast and fun PvE combat
    +4 different houses (called cornerstones)you can design and use
    +can make your own club and club world
    +3 "professions"
    +No queue to play (if it says there's a queue its cause the server is getting an update. not sure what the other reviewers are talking about a queue)
    +Lots of mounts
    +Lots of stuff to collect
    +Can switch classes anywhere
    +Auction house that you can access anywhere

    Cons:
    - VERY MUCH P2W !! Classes are now cash purchase only and no longer able to be bought with in game currency. also the majority of the game store wares are credits only . An extreme amount of grinding required to do anything on the live server with all of it being able to be bypassed by paying real money( and expensive too ..10$ wont get you much ) also there's the mastery system ..see below
    - Strange leveling system . Ends at lvl 20 and after that , you gain levels by upgrading your gear which requires more grinding somewhat boring content and mining(or of course paying real money )[EDIT: this is changing soon as they are reworking all the classes and leveling in general making it take longer to level]
    - If not mentioned yet ..EXTREMELY GRIND HEAVY on the live server (non test server)..
    -Mastery system , you gain mastery when you collect things , level your classes, level "professions" .. this is the worst and most blatant attempt to get players to spend money that i have ever seen .. In order to do end game content at all you need to be a very high level of mastery (if not maxed) and the ONLY way to get max mastery ..is by spending well over 50$ in the cash shop.
    -No in game mail system
    - Random crashes (game wide issue not on my end)

    Overall they are taking a very P2W direction, and ignoring the existing player base which is in an uproar about it.    … Full Review »

    Right now I have bought three classes, the Shadow Hunter, Neon Ninja, and Candy Barbarian, which are all fun to play and different from each other. The classes all have unique styles and outfits that can be purchased if you want to stand out a little more. You can customize your mask, hat and weapon with any of the styles that you find in the world, and there are a lot to find. Custom player-made items are all throughout the world and drop quite often. Right now my Neon Ninja has a robot face, a brain in a jar for his hat and a huge viking laser sword.
    The game is all about exploring, creating and having fun with your friends, and it's a lot of fun.    … Full Review »
