I’m in the process of decluttering and I’m wondering if it’s safe to toss the disks. I already activated it. I can just download the client from the account page, no? I just want to make sure before I toss them.

Hi vanillexhope – You don’t necessarily need the disks if you don’t want them. Since you’ve technically purchased a Guild Wars 2 serial code, you’re essentially paying for the account, and so you can install the client as many times as you wish. You should have the option to install it digitally when you log into your Guild Wars 2 account.

With modern games, especially MMOs like GW2, patched content is almost larger than the original disc copy. So even if you install it from the disc, you have to download about as much anyway.

yeah but its still easily 4 hours saved and having a faulty HDD means i ll have to reinstall the game several times for a year or two.
