I want to be excited about Wildstar, but I am forced to be wary of NCSoft.

A good thing to keep in mind is that it’s developed by carbine who has a team of programmers etc from some of the best MMOs out there.

Oh, I love Carbine.  LoTRO was a game I played and enjoyed a long time and came back to later.  I am just hearing some bad things about NCSoft’s management of GW2, which I also own and play (far less frequently now) in regard to the role cash shops play into the funding of development.  Rather than funnel funds back into successful games, they are distributed across all their titles to make up for any title not carrying its own weight.
