Same here. I'm done with "sub fee" mmos for now.

I played Tera but Guild Wars 2 is just so much better for me.

Tera - great combat system, nice graphics, the rest is pretty much bad

Guild Wars 2 - huge world that feels alive and there's constantly happening something, exploration element, dynamic events, endgame starts at begining, no linear questing, no subscribzion fee, huge replay value, i have yet to try the dungeons

I don't think I'll ever gona play another MMO with a subscription fee anymore.

Change your login to a real email address where you actually get email.

Then when it sends you the validation, from that email, follow the link.

Done.

 

If you keep getting message and it doesn't go away, it's because you aren't doing the above steps.  If you aren't getting an email from them, you probably still have a @ncsoft email.  You need a real email address that they can send mails to.  Login to your account at guildwars2.com and change it.

I'm using my real email. But the link that I get in the email, doesen't work. I get some template error.

The email includes a second link that it says you should go to if the first one doesn't work.

If that second link is also giving you problems.. umm.. contact support.   Or wait until they are having fewer issues, seeing as contacting support probably won't achieve much too quickly anyway.

You can play without verifying.  (At least you could yesterday)

I only get one link and yeah, I can still play the game without validating.

This is the error I get:

Template "{"code":3010,"product":1008,"module":1,"line":462,"text":""}" not found

I've checked for extra spaces as suggested in the post above, but as far as I can tell I've copy/pasted the link correctly.

Same problem here.

I finally was able to connect and the game is patched but when I try and log in I get a:

Validate your email address. Your e-mail addess has not been validated...

I have been in every beta and never had an issue and my account is up to date (I just checked).

None of the links on the error page work.

Does anyone know how to overcome this error?

 

Same problem here.

I wonder if GW2 marks the end of the medieval fantasy/cartoon MMO genre. Honestly I think this horse has finally been beaten to death and there won't be anything else coming after GW2.

is the industry finally able to move on and discover other timezones/settings and graphics styles?

World of Darkness, Secret World, Titan, Otherland, Repopulation, Planetside 2...medieval MMOs, a relict of the past in 2013?

It doesen't mark any end if you ask me. Personally, I prefer fantasy setting. Just can't stand that dark cold metal sci-fi stuff.

B2P for me.

Saw a thread in the GW2 forums discussing whether or not it is an industry changer. 

Got me to thinking, if GW2 releases to huge success and acclaim, and they really do deliver and sustain a full featured MMORPG using the B2P model, how willing will you be to pay a subscription fee in the future.

Or will you be more inclined to expect/demand the B2P model?  Perhaps you'll be willing to still pay a sub if they provide something beyond what GW2 does, if so, what might that be?

 

Probably note, unless they can really bring something new and lower the sub fee.

I'm skipping TSW, don't like the setting. Just doesn't appeal to me.
