Ok Delfosse, we get it. You are not a fan of the game.
I'm up to level 8 with my Asuran warrior. While the whole gnome angle doesn't appeal to me, the Asuran city is pretty amazing. It's a floating cube. The Sylvari city is less exciting to me, I've seen this whole nature grove thing before.
I've been trying different weapon combinations as a warrior to get a feel for them, and ArenaNet did a good job making them all very different. You unlock specific abilities for each weapon. For example, a two handed hammer has an entirely different ability bar than a sword and shield setup. You even have different abilities if you switch to two swords. You also have combat abilities underwater that change, basically you use a harpoon and need to unlock abilities for that too. It gives a nice variety of options.
Humanoid, as you level you unlock the 5 abilities on the right side bar, and then you spend skill points to get those. They become pretty important as combat gets harder. I also find myself moving around a lot in combat, so I don't get too bored with my autoattack going to town. One of the issues with beta is there is so many people around, the tactics you need to survive tough fights don't come into play as much, because you have a dozen people beating down the bad guys.
It is odd having relatively few abilities, especially after TOR which really had way too many. But the diversity of the skills available have kept me engaged so far.
