    Only that it features mounted aerial combat, supposedly. I'm trying it on release next month with a friend.

    Looking at the Steam page again, it seems like you can actually collect mounts by taming or capturing more, although I'm not sure how this system is going to work. Four classes, pretty generic--assassin, healer, etc. Although I suppose with so much focus on companions your own class won't need as much customization.

    Ill be trying it out on July 6th... it seems like an updated wow to me really, it has battlegrounds , arenas a pvp region (not a zone a whole region) guild wars , dungeons . PvP starts at lvl 30 . You can also tame and use as mounts or pets a huge amount of different critters. The flying mounts look awesome and there is also aerial battles from mount.

    I was board of the PvE combat very slow compare to BDO..... Also the game is basically tab targeting.

    The lighting system and particle effects (god rays, spell effects, and glow effects) are nice and done pretty well. How ever the graphics themselves are meh and feel outdated and the character movement seems little clunky.

    Its also a Nexon game and it was fun but only main thing so far that felt fun was the Pokemon in game
