I really enjoyed playing WoW but felt I would not play it enough to warrant paying the monthly subscription. Neverwinter is free to play. Does anyone play this for PC and can tell me how it compares to WoW? Also, did anyone take part in the Beta for Xbox? MMORPG I've heard on consoles do not translate well from their PC counterparts.
Neverwinter is more of an action-RPG. I like the combat a lot, and it feels great with a controller.
Target-based combat like WoW probably wouldn't translate to a controller, and of course Neverwinter can't touch WoW in terms of the sheer amount of content.
But if you're looking for an MMORPG that you can play casually, Neverwinter is a great option because it's a lot of fun and very accessible.
I prefer turn-based more than real-time because it allows for a more strategic battle which is simplier funnier in my opinion.
But the the Neverwinter Nights series is a lot different than the Neverwinter MMO, which is really D&D in name only.

They both are off the D & D rule book ... NWN just attempts to mirror the table top better by the inclusion of turn-based...
However I see you viewpoint.
