I’ve played several mmo’s over the last 10 years and none of them have been without problems. What really stands out to this player is that Arenanet cares. They communicate with the player base frequently and honestly. (Unlike my previous game where it was all talk and not much else.) Since I started playing, I’ve watched a lot of dev interviews, etc. and I can sense the genuine passion they have for the game. That’s not to say the game is without problems. I’m just pleasantly surprised that Arenanet doesn’t make me feel that they are only interested in my wallet but about my experience and fun. It’s never really been about the money. Make content worth experiencing and the players will come and gladly pay.
