I believe GW2 was pushed back after the developers saw Blizzard's WoTLK x-pac (Just like Warhammer's developers pushed back Warhammer after Lich King info flooded out) This could be a good thing. Maybe Anet will rip some ideas off of WoTLK. Cause it Rocked, and is Blizzard best X-pac. After seeing some of the recent updates to Guild Wars,,,,, I wouldn't be surprised if Anet decides to rip WoW's recent activities off. You can already see the similarities between WoW's recent additions, and Guild Wars current update.

Originally posted by OldManFunk GW2 is pretty much finished but the release is delayed to give Aion a chance to launch. NCSoft didn't want GW2 competing with Aion. Interesting. Are you a GW2 dev? Aion's got all the ingredients to be a major hyperfail. I'm as interested in trying it as anyone else but it's still a 3 year old game. There are just way too many MMOs releasing soon that are a lot fresher. Aion and GW are so different from each other. Bliz should be the one worrying at this point. BTW, what does it take to get GW2 listed as a MMO on this site anyway?

Originally posted by haggus71 That said, NC Soft doesn't want to hurt the sales of Aion in the US by putting out a flood of info about GW2. Guild Wars has a good reputation, and is second only to WoW in the American market. They just came out with a bunch of updates for GW, and it's the only MMO other than WoW that is friendly to the casual player, a player other MMOs have overlooked at their peril. Uh. According to what I've heard (not that I'm very interested in WoW in the first place), you need to raid in WoW to get the best gear. So why is WoW that casual friendly ?!? Thats a bit surprising news to me. I think GW does a lot better than WoW in respect to casual friendly, and I can think of a lot of games which are about as casual friendly as WoW (all theses socalled "WoW clones", for a start).

WoW is casual-friendly (once you achieve Loremaster by completing all the quests) if you like fishing, cooking, jousting -- and if you hate decent looking/quality gear.

GW2 will release after it rips off eveything in WOW, cause everyone knows Blizz invented not only MMO;s but gnomes, dwarves and elves as well. Heck i bet Tolkien was a blizzard employee.
