Guild Wars 2

Hello all, I have been away from Gw2 for a bit now playing other games well D3 but recently I’ve been testing out Blade and soul, Anyway i wanted to know is GW2 still worth playing even if you don’t Buy the new expansion? Or has the game gone down hill?

I don’t have personal experience with the game without it. But I would highly encourage buying it as there is no reason not to, aside from financial issues. I’d assume the game would be a mix between less populated and less gold income. Granted gold income itself took a massive hit game wide as there is no where to get a steady gold income. Some point to fractals, the other hand says selling rare drops while they are still rare.

The core zones are still highly populated. That could be due to f2p, it could be due to megaservers having less shards, it could eb all the people doing map rewards/masteries/collections, but it’s still fully viable to play without HoT either way.

I mean don’t get me wrong i want to buy it i really would, But seeing how i’ll be neglecting gw2 once Blade and soul starts the new phases of closed beta testing and once January 2016 comes around i’m pretty sure the game will launch open beta, So 50 dollars to some is just nothing it’s not that i’m poor, But seeing how i have spent over 100 dollars in Blade and soul with the founder Pack plus cash shop, I’ve already invested in it. But to pay 50 for the expansion only to leave it in 2 months it not that i am cheap but it’s more of a moral ethic’s thing. To be honest the things i wanted the Developers to add/change in Gw2 they did that with the with the new expansion.

Well that is the point of the expansion pack to be honest. I know what you mean with dropping money on p2p games, I’ve spent over $150 on warframe.
I’m unaware how fun Blade and soul is or how worth the founders pack is, especially since Asian oriented MMO’s always seem to betray me with either becoming pay to play completely or other changes that ruin general fun for those who don’t add the publisher to their bank accounts.

Regardless, Heart of Thorns is worth it and you will get your money worth in 2 or so months. Don’t forget Guild Wars 2 is Buy to play not Pay to play. You can buy Heart of Thorns play it for a while, go to B&S, and come back to Guild Wars 2 when ever B&S is down or patching.

Besides all that I hope this was enough to get you an answer for yourself, and enjoy your very fan service swordsman MMO, I enjoyed the anime they made it gave me a good laugh.
