Yep. Guild Wars has them beat mercilessly in those departments. It just completely lacks any sort of polish. However, what it lacks in UI and "systems", it makes up for in "fun factor" with plenty to spare, something Guild Wars simply can't claim on the same scale. The two, however, are VERY different beasts.
I look forward to future changes. For now, I'll just wait for my CE to show up (sometime this weekend would be nice!!!!), and continue playing the "Beta" until they cut me off on the 7th. I expect the game will evolve a great deal over time, so I'm willing to accept some minor issues for now.
