I was really excited for this game, I pre-ordered it and played it immediately at launch. I used to play Guild Wars 1 a lot back in high school when I was a freshman. Although World of Warcraft was the game EVERYONE played back then, I was 14 and couldn’t afford the monthly subscription, so I played Guild Wars 1 as an alternative. Eventually, I bought World of Warcraft and played it for an exceptionally long time, as it just felt superior to the original Guild Wars in terms of content and socializing (I had more friends on Warcraft).

When I heard that Guild Wars was having a sequel that not only looked great, but had innovative MMO mechanics, I wanted to support it. Strangely enough, the first time I played Guild Wars 2 last year, felt really underwhelming and I could not figure out why. I think it had to do with the lack of friends and I wasn’t quite invested in the races as a whole. Now that I’ve revisited this game again in 2013 and have been leveling more characters, I’ve began to appreciate the game a lot more. You could argue that the end game content isn’t quite up to par yet, but for the price you pay, this is an exceptionally well made MMO with a lot of things to to keep you invested.

It’s not a game for everyone, as can be seen by these forums, that much I can tell you, but it’s positioned well for someone like me.

Glad you’re enjoying it again.

Thank you, I mean nothing in the game feels lazy at all, they really put their hardest effort into it. I guess with any MMO, it just isn’t the same when you play it alone all the time.

Personally, I enjoy the Scarlet invasions more, but, as with many things in life, the holiday-themed events are always fun. It’s a mood thing, I guess. =)
