So bored with the seemingly new age games and drone-ing through yet another weekend of an fps to mmo tie, i went to the forums again, and happily i saw a blog based on the best and worst launches, and the first on the best launch (or second) was guild wars, so i check the game list, even though i knew it's standing, just to see where it was again.
Now i was a GW beta phanboii, i played day and night, bought bonus slots for characters and played each roll to it's fullest, debuffing with my migrane mesmer, spending every hour attempting to get elite skills, or even (back in the day) grinding hydra's by w/e rock lol, and it was great, but going back i was dissapointed... now for factions i went back and i played through on both a ritualist and an assassin. subbing monks on both like i always did for w/e reason, and it was fun, faction grinding beleive it or not is fun, 40 second runs to a spot and 300 gold, ez change. but it got repedetive so i took a small break, small enough to wait for Night Fall. NF was an amazing expansion, the starter area was so big i hit 20 before i got off the island, i had the "best" armor quality within a few hours and was wrecking the place with my dervish/paragon mix, didnt feel like leveling through the long story 2x, and i beat it with ease, getting my crazy primeval armor and then working through it on all my other toons, which was a blast btw but i couldnt help but wonder...
GW is a pvp based game, everything in the game is supposed to circled around a pvp, but it's a seamed game.... It hadnt bothered me until i had dominated each class and completed every quest and mission in every story on almost every class, but when i looked at it thoroughly, wt****, it's seamed. I cant do open pvp, i started GW when i was like 14 or 15.. now im 17 and it's almost like... going back to tony hawk 1 after playing smash bro's melee for wii, it just doesnt work... you grow past it right? but it was SUCH a fun game and i wish i could get that sensation back... after i realised this i tried all my old games ALL of them, i whipped out my diablo 1, let down... I spanked a big chunk of Diablo 2 ANNNND expansion... let down... I akwardly clicked through 2 minutes of runescape.. letdown, what a bummer.. i wish there were more endless games, games that grow with players no matter what... I'm waiting for an MMO like fable... Oblivion is supposidly an MMO but it's not -.- i'm looking for a WORLD, not a month long game.. or even a year long, im looking for a game i can play for a week, get into a coma, come out of the coma, recover my memmory and be like "whoa this game STILL pwns"
I dont know about you.. but yea, that's just how i feel
