You're both right, just for each of your own audiences. It's the greatest MMO ever for people who appreciate high-stakes play, cutthroat communities, and rewarding significant investments of time over a long period. And it's a boring, empty, ugly, poorly designed slog for new players who duck in for a two-week trial, connect with nobody, accomplish or witness nothing that's player-driven (because almost all of it happens outside of where new players can even reach), have a terrible or dull first <10 hours, and realize they'd rather play something that frontloads more of the rewarding gameplay and punishes failure less.
