Its a MMOTPS not an MMORPG though it shares similarities with a MMORPG its not quite the same. Think of any shooter with Co op but bigger if the PVP sides of things last and remain fun i can see Defiance lasting a good while. Yeap i believe its worth the price tag especially with the steam bonuses

it is NOTHING like borderlands, FFS

You are wrong. If you played the beta you should know that there is a skill tree which uses EGO points to unlock skills that do affect your overall effectiveness and there are 4 main skills
