Guild Wars anyone? (not a bashing thread)

Post by Morden »

I bought the game when it came out.. and eventhough I liked it I couldn't get hooked, so I didn't really play it. I've loaded it up a couple more times since and I think i'd like to give it another go. Anyone else here play?

Let the bashing begin!

I played the Guild Wars E3 Open Beta and had a ridiculous amount of fun. One of my all time favourite gaming moments came from that open beta. But the retail release failed to hook me. I think I played about five hours, and then uninstalled it.

By the time the retail version came out, I had been playing World of Warcraft for a while, so nothing else could compare to that. Guild Wars would have been a massive hit if it had come out just a year or two earlier.

I know that Amrod is into it...runs his own guild.

I've never played it, but I like their ethics. No monthly fees, and stand-alone expansions? Genius. Proof that MMOs dont have to charge through the urethra.

Just like WoW... massive hype, I got it and played it for maybe 3 and a half week and I stopped. Dunno why... played morrowind for three years :)

Yeah i'm hooked on this game. both pve and pvp are amazing (just that pve is a bit short IMO). They regularly update even though there are no monthly fees.

I think I did hell's precipice with lady N once or something. If you wanna form a party with me sometimes, In game name is Li Dian. I have both original and factions of course ;).

guild wars FTW! :)

been playing it since beta and I just got factions today. i stopped playing for a few months when school started to suck a lot more and require a lot more effort, but im back into it now and i think its one of the best online games out there.
