I wound up not being able to play much this weekend because of work, so I only tried one class: Sylvari Mesmer. I like this class, though sometimes I was frustrated due to my ineptness with the game controls. As with Thief, some of your skills move you around (such as the one that makes an illusion of you and teleports you backward) while the camera stays put. I think this is due to the camera controls, and I should have tried this with automatic camera on but I didn't. The camera also bothered me sometimes due to not adapting to the landscape.
I like that you get a personal story line, based on your choices during character creation, and decisions to make as you interact with NPCs that can change your attributes, karma, etc. I only got my plant person to level 9, mostly due to lack of time and spending much of that time trying to figure out the crafting system. I think I'm going to have lots of fun with this game when it comes out next month!
