It's a long way from garbage. It's a bit rough round the edges, but I haven't had any problems in 10 hours of playing

So in previous years we've been highly critical of reviewers who put out reviews of online games before the game truly goes live. Now we don't have review copies of an MMO and we're upset?

The game has been in fairly open alpha/beta for a while now. If you are desperate to know, go play that. If not, wait for reviews that will actually be worth something. There's very little point in reviewing a game like this under a publisher's control and everyone knows that

When a company takes steps to block reviews of its product, you have to wonder what exactly it is they don't want us to know.

But you can play the game. They've had lots of betas, they keep sending me emails to play it more and enter the next stage of each beta

That's not exactly hiding

(note, I clicked on that through my email, so I hope the link works)

Then why not send out copies? And how do we know how the Beta differs from the release version?

Their recent track record doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.
