I give it a 7.5 and I should be giving it a 9 based on my play style nowadays.
They lose points for me mainly because I like games that offer something to the most dedicated, even if its just a different color armor for those who run 16man HM tfb that's enough for me. I don't run 16man myself, my guild only does 8, but just having the option for a more higher or more prestigious looking armor or titles I feel would give more incentive for people to make the switch to 16. The same goes for crafting, I have yet to play an mmo that has captured what I want in crafting, its a situation that I have no solution to but I would like to see more done with crafting, mainly more options and uses.
I guess what I would like to see is simply more rewards for dedication in the form of gear art, titles, mounts, etc... The reason I don't say stats is because I know MMO's would rather cater to 150,000 casuals than 1500 hardcores and the casuals want to be have the best as well so asking a developer for better stated gear won't happen.
Keep in mind I'm saying this as a former hardcore gamer that now tries to restrict their time gaming and focus on real life. I'm not a 20hour a day person I may play for 2-4hours 3-4 days a week based on raid schedule. I don't think I can dedicate the time to get what I'm asking for and in a way I guess I'm kind of glad their isn't the temptation. But at the same time I would like the option to be there. You can see how torn I am on this issue.
I never experienced the lag issues of 1.4. I am annoyed by the gtn post 1.4, as a power trader it can become annoying at times when trying to learn a new market segment. I don't pvp anymore, got war hero then got bored, world pvp is another issue I'd like resolved but I don't have a solution for it either.
All in all I hope the game survives and gets to the point where new servers have to be opened again. I've never played an mmo at launch apart from this so I have no idea what kind of growing pains these things have to go through.
