It really is up in the air at this point. The majority of people who have commented on gameplay here have made to level 10, maybe. Most the naysayers didn't even make it that far.
The few people who have commented regarding the mid and end game have said its fantastic. There is a post regarding mid/end game in my old thread from last beta weekend. My point is we haven't seen enough to really condemn the game to failure. In my opinion the beginning of the game is just fine. 1-10 may not be the most exciting gameplay I have had but its solid. By level 10 in EQ you have a rusty sword, some cloth armor and are still killing orcs with a group. Give it a fair shake before you shit all over it

Yes it's very easy to make a good judgement on how a game is going to be in the long run when the initial "hook" sucks. And no one wants to play a FF13 type game either. Yeah sure the game gets ok after 20 hours of playing,.. but no one wants to slog through that first 20 hours to get to a generic game. Just like here, no one is going to want to get through generic to crappy early game just for the hope of seeing something great at the end. Especially when there are SO many other choices out there that don't suck early on.

And to add to the fact of "The late game is ok!" that I've heard before, do you know the attention span of the average MMOer these days? Any dev. with a clue knows you have to hook your audience early. When a majority of people can't even stand getting past lvl 10... that's a bad sign.
Hell even I got happily past lvl 10 in FF14 before it completely tanked and they had to revamp the entire game.
