Buying GW for a friend! What's the best way?
I’m not sure, besides buying a physical copy of the game. Hopefully you figure out a way to take advantage of the $19.99 price tag. It’s seriously a smoking deal.
You could buy them a box copy and give it to them. That’s what I’ve done in the past.
But I prefer having a hard copy of my games or some reason. I’m old fashioned…
If you are referring to Guild Wars 2, you can purchase a copy of the game, and just send/give your friend the CD-Key, and he/she can register the game. Nothing about your purchase will be saved in their game account.
In fact, only the actual game account user can register and play the game, to comply with the EULA/ToS.
Good luck.
Best way is to buy them Guild Wars 1 instead
