This except I'm playing TSW till the 25th.

What is "real"? How do you define "real"?

Without a doubt it will be my full time game.  Probably to the exclusion of every other game for a while, except maybe Arkham City GoTY.

 

Since I play maybe 8 hrs/week total, and I love PvE, exploring, minigames, minipet collecting, and crafting, as well as a newfound love for WvWvW, I figure I'll be good for about a year.  While I will play other games during that year, GW2 will likely be my main one for at least that long....longer if the expansion comes out that soon.

You want me to pay to play a game I already paid for???

Be afraid.....The dragons are HERE!

Definitely my full time game. I fully expect to get over 1,000 hours of play time from the game over the course of the first year, which will leave little time for other games. No Subscription fee will make it easier to take a break for other games if something really interesting comes along, but since GW2 is the MMO I've been waiting for someone to make for the last 14 years of playing MMOs, it's easy to state with certainty this will be my full time game.

Yes. Will probably play some Boarderlands 2 on the side when it comes out.

It's difficult to say.  That depends on how much content there is at launch and how quickly it is consumed.  Anet has already said GW2 is not a game that is designed with any sort of player retention in mind, so I am concerned about its longevity.

It will undoubtedly be my full time MMO for quite a while.  

I have not had an active MMO subscription in over 2 years.  Although I tried a few over those years, I didn't play any of them past the initial free month (and in most cases, I didn't play them past the first weekend or, in those instances where I got to try an open beta, I didn't actually buy them at all).

I will be playing other non-MMO games concurrently with GW2 though, I'm sure.  Borderlands 2, Torchlight 2, Sim City and X-Com all will be released over the next few months as well and there is no doubt that I will put some of my time into each of them.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as BadSpock.  I've been playing Minecraft and Skyrim, with a little TF2 tossed in; no MMOs right now.  I think the break I've taken, with a few BWEs tossed in, has refreshed the genre for me.  Plus GW2 has been fun in the BWEs.  So yes, GW2 will be my "full-time game".  Also helps that I have a large community of like-minded folks to play with (see sig...).

A man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still

No way, my PS3 is blowing up with great games right now. I can't be bothered with GW2 lol. As far as mmos, think I'm gonna take a break until PSO2 and Repop come out.

Themepark is not a sub genre, its an excuse.

So, will Guild Wars 2 be your full time game? 

 

Primary.   My secondary will likely be this:   http://www.thewarz.com/

No.

 

GW2 = COD.  I ill play the f00k out of GW2, but I would not consider it "full time".  It is too mindless/zerg based to really be considered more than passing fluff.

For two or three months, like the rest.

Once the PvE is consumed it's just PvP-or-quit instead of raid-or-quit. WHAT A TWIST!

Full time game for a MMO? Yes, definitely! I just can't play more then one MMO at a time. I don't know about you, but when I like a game and invest time in my char(s) , I am "unable" to say : Ah, I am having a blast playing GW2 , but I will still invest some hours in Aion,D3,WoW, etc. Why should I do that ? :) Same goes for cars. I can't afford more then one, but even if I did , I am pretty sure I will be having only 1, the one which I like the most. ( well 2, if I will be having familly , kids, etc :) ).

WIth that being said, the only game I will be switching to , is Lineage 3 , if is at least good as 2! I will however try WildStar when he comes out and ArchAge. But that's 2 years ahead ..at least, so .. planty of time to enjoy GW2 :)

Full time? Maybe.

Only MMO? Yeah. I haven't felt like playing any other MMO (or game, for that matter) since GW2 burrowed into my brain and took over. I'll probably spend a year just wandering around like a nub staring at all the shinies.

GW2 will be my primary game until I find one that is stellar at character customization, character animation and has a magnificent world.

All of my posts are either intelligent, thought provoking, funny, satirical, sarcastic or intentionally disrespectful. Take your pick.

Yes, it'll most likely will be said game. This is mainly because there isn't anything else I'm interested in, aside from Borderlands 2, that is releasing anytime soon.

GW2 full-time game?  Hope so, nothing else on my radar has an upcomming release date...and I've exhausted the current options.

 

Future considerations:  ArchAge, Darkfall 2.0, FFXIV 2.0 Realm Reborn, Firefall, The Repopulation
