Guild Wars 2

Conncept.7638:

I just can’t play other MMOs because of how much better the genre plays without the trinity system.

If there were a better game which required a reasonable monthly fee, I would pay it. However, most still fall back on the trinity, and GW2 has proven that no MMO can play as well under that rigid system as one without.

GW2 has not proven that. That is merely a personal preference on your part. I personally hated not having the trinity. I don’t think GW2 is inferior to other MMOs because of this. However, I know other MMOs are more my style. I love having 3 characters that purpose are different (healing, tanking, damage dealer) and enjoy the playstyle variety. Neither approach is superior just focused on different audiences.

When I originally stopped playing GW2 I had every intention of coming back at a later time to experience the added content(was hoping for an expansion). However all the temporary content killed that intention. I want to play the content when I have time not only when it is available. I don’t think b2p, p2p, or f2p matters as long as you feel like you get your moneys worth. I know I did with GW2, I know I have with the subscription games I have played, and the only f2p game I have spent money on I spent 60$ because I felt it was worth a full retail game and not because I was forced to buy something.
