I played the beta for quite a while... I would say don't go with it, cept if you like pot based game (aka no support class, the game is based on self buffs and healing/mana pots). Skills anims look nice but there isn't much variety in it (at least at the begining).
The game is pretty much based on solo AoE grind, it's quite fun if you're skilled at it, but it gets old really fast imo, and the grind is quite hard too.

Character wise they're not ugly, but not good looking either, you don't choose the sex of your chars, it's class dependent (Humans archers and warrior are males and humans mages are females, Moon elfs are only female, and orcs warrior and shaman are males, archers are female), not much personalisation either.

Never tested the PvP, the open PvP system sucks imo, but I heard guild wars based PvP isn't too bad.

All in all, it's a so-so game, not terrible but nothing really interesting in it, and it's Codemasters, they suck at mmos, they ruined RFo(which could have been a pretty good game, if it wasn't so buggy and CM wasn't that slow to update even minors bugs... updates that would cause even more bugs...), so I wouldn't put much trust in them.

Now it's f2p btw, but I think you still have to pay to activate your account, not sure tho.
