Warrior was my first love in not just GW1 or even gaming but in all areas of fiction. My favorite fictionacharacters were all larger than life champions of strength and power: Thor, Hercules, Gilgamesh, Bhima, Sun Wukong, Goku, Hulk, Superman, Might Guy, Alex Louis Armstrong, etc.
Now with regards to GW2 I agree with the earlier assessments that being currently underpowered in the game makes winning with warriors that much more rewarding compared to other classes: namely DH and Reaper. I also concur that the warrior’s simplicity is their complexity; we have to be far more measured and calculating with our skills and positioning because of our limited options with respect to other classes.
Finally, I’ll also add that despite it’s performance flaws Arenanet has done a good job of capturing and distilling the essence of what makes warriors fun, especially the constant swapping of weapons and burst skills. It may be for naught but I’ll continue to hold a candle for my favorite class and hope for their rise to glory in the future.
