Asheron's Call 2: Legions Review

Prodigious Gaming brings us their review of Asheron's Call 2: Legions, giving Turbine's expansion pack an overall score of 5/10. Their final paragraph to follow:
All these niggling flaws will weigh far too heavily on a new player's mind, and render AC2: Legions rather obsolete in the face of competition from more modern and accomplished titles. So, whilst the additions Legions provides to the core game are commendable enough, and indicative of Turbine's attentiveness to their long-term customers, Legions' appeal will most likely be confined to those customers. The difficulty curve is far too steep to play solo, and with its diminishing popularity, new players are going to find it very difficult to find other people of equivalent level to party up with. With other, more newbie-friendly MMORPGs like World of Warcraft and Guild Wars on the market, it's practically impossible to give Legions a wholehearted recommendation, or to be brutally honest, even a half-hearted one.
