Guild Wars 2

so I’ve picked up this game and am enjoying it quite a bit i must say have not really played a mmo since eq1, but whats the point? i know i know whats the point of any game but it seems like a far more meaningful question for this game. sure there is pvp but does not matter if I’m level 80 or level 2 for spvp and while gear is great in wvw the structure of it makes gaining and edge with top tier gear trivial unless seeking a quite area not full of cluster kittening action (i mean this is a good way its heaps of fun)

so yes there is pvp but there is no real benefit between 2 or 80 which is good i guess but after playing my character and following the epic tail which is his story i can’t help feel like an elderly man reflecting back on life in a old folks home sipping soup and feel the best years (or hours in this case) are be hide me. sure there is crafting but why pursue the best tier when there is no benefit too the best tier, i can’t help but feel this is no more then a single player game with nice online features and the only real point of continuing with my hero is to rack up those loved xbox points : P.

i have googled and found nothing about what they plan to do except what the already said pre release. what are your guys thoughts
