I believe in life before death... So dont forget to enjoy it while you still can. |
I am still having a blast, Its the best 50 Euros i spend in my life, For me the game is exactly what i expected it to be, Even more. Its better then expected in some ways. Because the game has something for every of my gaming moods.
And i am not alone with this, beleive me, over half my guild fully agrees, while only very few had a hard time understanding that the game is different and requires a different approach to have fun...
WvWvW queues prove that the game is still as popular as ever, and the population in PvE has spread over level 1 to 80, so almost no more overflow servers (tough i had one in Queensdale yesterday afternoon.
The game is doing great and many people are having lots of fun.. Now its up to Anet to hurry the repairs, do the ballancing, and add more content.
I am still wayting on the mobile device access and most of the promissed minigames. I hope to see the first new added content inside the 3 months after release mark.
The game is still a blast to play, every day, for Explorers like me... Its the ultimate exploration game, Killers and socialisers will be happy too. And i predicted long time ago that acheivers will not like the game to much, and not for a very long periode of time. But then whome ever listens to my ramblings.

Besides that what many around here fail to understand is that there is a whole spvp scene that is going strong.

Nothing in WvW remotely compares to the simple joy of tarren mill vs southshore, or any of the other towns that we would lay waste to in vanilla WoW.

Kudos to you. I was never a real fan of WoW in any form, so I can't really relate. Release a game with a very large established fanbase from 10+ years of bnet history when the market was still emerging and the casual base had not yet been established, thus ripe for harvesting a momentious self perpetuating playerbase people never leave because they have X hours invested in their characters, and their friends and everyone else plays anyway. Not discounting Blizzard quality... but WoW's success is as much about perfect timing as it is quality, if not more so. - Derros |

I had a lot more fun in other games since Vanilla WoW - Heck I had more fun in AoC and Aion (personal opinion obviously) - also TSW was fun for the first month before I finished all the content. I guess I was just never a big WoW fan - so to me using that as a standard sets the bar pretty low. |

OP I played wow f from release till near lich kings release..This is the first themepark game since I first played wow to give me the same feeling of excitement and adventure... I had that feeling with EQ,AC and others but since wow have not.. kudos to anet for restoring my interest and enjoyment in themeparks once again
I angered the clerk in a clothing shop today. She asked me what size I was and I said actual, because I am not to scale. I like vending machines 'cause snacks are better when they fall. If I buy a candy bar at a store, oftentimes, I will drop it... so that it achieves its maximum flavor potential. --Mitch Hedberg |

Originally posted by Aerowyn OT, so my apologies.... I think this may be one of the underlying reasons for our inability to meet head to head on GW2. I was never a big WoW fan, whereas you played it for years. So maybe a lot of your appreciation for GW2 stems from some of this WoW investment?

OP I would have expected a post like this from someone who started gaming with WoW, not an MMO veteran. Your standards are way too low, sir. How can you even like the PvP in this game after having played DAOC?

Originally posted by krakra70 Mate after EQ and DAoC, WoW was actually the last MO i toroughly enjoyed.
Thats why is take WoW as a refference, since everything after that was below standards, on top of that everyone knows WoW and its a good reference to make your comparicing statements.
Never expected GW2 PvP to be on the same level as DAoC, and if you search back in my posts, you can see some pre release comments on this. GW2 is far from a holy grail, but the best game i have played in a very very long time.
GW2 gives me back what i missed since EQ, and made exploring fun and exciting again. On top of that it has some great PvP and i expect it to only improve more and more in the future, dont you remember what DAoC was without realmpoints and Darkness falls?

Originally posted by grimalOriginally posted by Aerowyn perhaps....for me the main issues I have with most themeparks is they design the entire questing experience around the individual.. Quest hubs completely take away from a living world feel..To me how the DE system is put together it could use some improvements but to me completely changes how the world feels. Another big one for me is npc interaction.. swtor had the most lifeless and dull feeling towns I have ever played in an mmo.. I never played a mmo where I enjoyed exploring just the cities as much as gw2.. all in all these two things are huge in my book of how a game feels when playing...

Love this game to pieces.
The game mechanics appear to he deceptively simple but so far it really is the best system among the MMOs I have played =] Roll the Dice |

Originally posted by Sylvarii WvW and pvp balance in general are vastly superior to DAOC's. no discussion really. |

Originally posted by krakra70 Well, I remember DaoC PvP being a lot of fun, but this is too.. and DaoC didn't have concepts like supply and the range of interesting siege weapons and 'actiony' combat. I don't know, but it seems to me that it's a case of nostalgia for DaoC that makes us think it was better.. maybe I'm wrong and I'd like to hear more about how DaoC was better... but the only thing I can think of is the total darkness and lack of a mini-map. Darkness Falls was a blast also. Did we all really enjoy the very lengthy journey back to the front line if you got killed? All I know is that I have enjoyed some of the WvWvW as much as I did sieges in DaoC as far as I can tell. |

The best thing since Anarchy Online for me. I do miss some features from GW1 (guild halls, more types of PvP), but hopefully they'll be added soon enough.
