Guild Wars 2

A feature that I have always wanted in the mmos I have played is to have some level of integration across multiple devices.

What I envision is a type of “Guild Wars Lite” feature that you can play via html or a smartphone app. Something that you could play on the go and in scenarios where you couldn’t play a full fledged client game.

As for content I see this going many different ways from puzzle games to home simulators to lite turnbased gaming. The possibilities are pretty much endless.

The most important aspect though it would be played through “your” character and you would receive benefits in the main game.

Say for instance you are at work and you play a blacksmithing mini game on your character for awhile. When log into the game on your pc you might receive a mail with your “payment” in the form of silver.

I’m sure some people won’t like this, but it would be completely optional and the benefits received wouldn’t be comparable to playing in game. This would mainly be geared to those who have less time to sit down and play and to giving a players are more immersive experience.

The industry is moving towards more cross platform integration and this seems like a logical way to do it.
