I still get this notion of having to "tag" a mob or get to a copper ore before someone else gets there in my head. Its all these years of mmos following that trend for no good reason really. The game brings a sense of union that I haven't felt in any other mmo. If there is one thing that I love about the pve though its the exploration. I don't look for a quest hub, do all the quest and move on. I roam freely doing whatever I come across and it works! Its also so nice to have things happen all the time. Things change and move around you, you could be minding your own business killing some mobs and have a group of 6 or 7 players with two npcs run right by you. You don't see stuff like that in other mmos. |

My urge to make a Theif and/or Necro is just... driving me crazy. 17 Guardian 24 Warrior and I feel like I need to keep experimenting. I never really played many classes in beta besides Guardian and Warrior - feel like I am missing out on potentially awesome experiences.

Originally posted by BadSpock haha yeah i know what you mean Normally, I pick a class I think I will like, play it for a bit, and if I dont like it I will re-roll and then focus on that. In GW2 I have a 21 Warrior, an 18 Engineer and a 12 Mesmer. Loving them all. Playing them all. Also, the first 2(at least) zones for each race are unique, and the personal stories are all different depending on what options you pick on character creation. I love how the different choices tell the same story but from different perspectives! Cluck Cluck, Gibber Gibber, My Old Mans A Mushroom |

Originally posted by orbitxo Pro Tip: be very careful when jumping into water from the high places you have got to to see the vistas. Make sure the water is actually deep. Or you die. It took me 3 stupid deaths to learn that lesson. LOL Cluck Cluck, Gibber Gibber, My Old Mans A Mushroom |

Yep it's fun that there is no reason why you would be mad because someone tap or finishes your mob !

Originally posted by BadSpock My mesmer is a Sylvari and I played a Sylvari Mesmer through the BWEs. Its fun. Mesmer fits very well with the mystical story of the Sylvari Cluck Cluck, Gibber Gibber, My Old Mans A Mushroom |

Originally posted by BadSpock same exact issue got my norn necro but also just starting to play charr thief alongside:) game is really an alt fans dream game 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 |

Mesmers feel like you have to work 10 times harder than the other classes and After having played the highly mobile thief to level 22 I just couldn't keep playing the Mesmer. Anyways, this game is easily one of the best mmo's that I have ever played.

Originally posted by Badaboom ohh Mesmers. I don't know about pve but in pvp man...they are a pain in the ass. Along with the Guardian I would say its the hardest class to kill. And when you see a mesmer and a necro together and the sheer number of minions and fakes a 2v2 actually feels like a 2v10! |

As I adventure and find things, look ahead to what is around the corner, I feel like James Woods character in Family Guy. "Ooh! a piece of candy, ooh, a piece of candy"! :)
Death is nothing to us, since when we are, Death has not come, and when death has come, we are not. |

I worked 12 hours on Saturday and then I went to Osoyoos on vacation for six days. No head start for me...more of a hind teat start. I'm missing out on the first week but at least ill have a lot of wine to drink when I play.
I nailed down some names before I left so that's something. Plant necro is waiting patienty for my return. I just hope GW can bring back my love for the mom. After star wars, star trek, rift, war hammer, lotr, wow, etc I long for some new play style and I hope this is it, or its back to tf2. |

so now can we get a legi review? not done by someone who has been waiting for the game and have a pre order? you know a average gamer? atleast one that has the ballz to point out its flaws and how the game copies things from others? one that combines the good and te bad not just "OMG i played here are all the good....now go buy it!" where r the cons? why does this game do so good? why are things it does being hailed as gamechangers when they have already been done? a honest joes review would be appreciated.... |
