Guild Wars 2

Hi all,

I was curious of GW2 was worth returning to?

I must make some points:

I love MMO’s for social interaction, group play, grouping up, and making friends while also having fun online with my characters.

I ended up buying a new laptop, a 15" Retina MacBook Pro… and am debating about returning to GW2.

If someone could let me know how the state of the game is, with the points I’ve made (Wanting to go on GW2 to make a character, progress through the game, and making new friends, chatting, grouping up, and so on)….

I’d be happy to return.

As far as now I have World of Warcraft going, if I end up loving GW2 I’ll gladly cancel and spend all my gaming time on here.

I appreciate feedback.

I’d say just try it. If you own it, it costs you nothing. Just get into it and see how the answers to your questions go. Those things you love mmo’s for I get from this, but I have no idea if you’ll have that experience. So just give it a go, you own it already!

I honestly don’t understand these kinds of posts. Why are you putting so much faith in total strangers knowing what you’d like or not?

Well the game is far from dead, we’re close to an expansion. You decide.

I’m going for it.

GW2 is not a slot-machine like WoW where you always have to push in some money
before you can play it .. so just start the game, login .. and look if you like it.

On the other hand .. Laptops are already not great for most games, and Mac is
also worse than PCs .. so i don’t know what performance you can expect.

I’m installing it now. And yeah, that was frustrating about WoW, considering some months I only got on a few days.

As far as the computer:

My prior MacBook Pro ran it fine. This one is much faster, so I’m anticipating it’ll run okay.

Quad Core i7, 16GB RAM.

I’m assuming you’re looking for a general answer, since you didn’t ask in any of the specific sub-forums. If its a general answer, then yes. The games always really nice. If you’re interested in WvW or sPvP, stay the hell away. Unless you’re a mesmer or elementalist, you’re in for heartbreak/rage.

Yay, welcome back to the family!

Well, I look forward to this greatly.

If I end up liking it, I’ll likely get the expansion on pre-order.

close to an expansion that will be the final nail in the coffin
