Heh, good point, except I refuse to PvP in these types of games...  looks like I'll be sticking with WoW.  LOL

By the way Ev, what was so great about Diablo2?  Looking back on it, it was a pretty bad game.  Tongue

Didn't say it was all that great. Just that the setup is kind of similar, the actual combat however, is not. In guild wars theres actually a fully fleshed out single player campaign with cut scenes and character development and destroyable geometry and the like. This is because in reality its NOT massively multiplayer. All of the single player is done with groups of 2-8 people.

Ripper, you would get more into it if you stopped dawdling around Yak's bend...came on...and did some PvP >.>. Seriously, the plot takes SOME twists after Yak's bend, its a bit random for me...but my mate loves it. ...and erm...join my guild >.> I just started a new one Tongue

The fact that I have a level 17 at the Mission after the Wilds means nothing?

But, do you have to party with other people, or can you do things by yourself?  Oh, and how's the in-game economy (does it have AH's like WoW)... I've become a huge auction whore.  Cheesy

don't really understand tbh...everything before my ascension was a blurr Tongue
besides...you get to level 20 automatically after ascension...so leveling up really dosen't mean much at all

no auction houses. But there are plenty of online auction places that function like ebay, but for GW. Although it dosen't really matter, the difference between a good sword and a crappy sword in PvP is slight. Its the skills and how you use them that counts. You don't HAVE to do anything with other people...but you're gonna get whupped if you don't

And that is the exact reason why it owns WoW.



Yea, but I want to get to level 20 before Ascension, to show how hardcore I am!

Are there any GW demos you know of out there, so I don't need to actually buy the game to try it out?  :miffed:

There was during the beta period. (A beta demo, unsurprisingly.)
Dunno if there's still anything available though.

I'm going to make a PvE Warrior/Monk.  I'm not a hardcore player, but I'd like to join a guild. it's sounds like you've got a PvP guild going (the operation fragmentation of humanoid bodies makes me think so) XD
