Guild Wars 2

It would pull resources to make and I already have the PC version. So, I have no reason to want it to come to PS4.

Also the controller would need to sprout more buttons otherwise you will have some crazy finger gymnastics needed to be able to use all 10 abilities, move, interact with things ect.

That is what I would have thought two years ago having never played an MMORPG on the PS3. But now that I have I must say it is surprisingly workable to bring an MMO to a console (at least as far as button configuration goes). DCUO had a system where you would hold R2 or L2 and then press one of the 4 buttons on the right (square, circle, triangle, X). This would effectively allow for 8 slot skills to be easily usable.

Then later additional features were introduced to allow for 12 slot skills to be usable. But ultimately all I’m saying is it is very do-able.

One of the big issues with this is that the PS4 requires you to pay a subscription fee to play online content (or at least this is my understanding of it from the most recent information, I am quite happy to be wrong if I am!).
But if that is the case – there is no way a B2P company would be happy having their customers paying a fee to play their game that they aren’t getting any of.

Under most circumstances you would be right, but to use the DC Universe Online example again, DCUO is one of the only games on PS4 that doesn’t require a Playstation Plus membership to play. In other words it is completely free. If Guild Wars 2 would do this it would be incredible seen as it is a better game than DCUO fundamentally.

I saw the video with Greg Miller talking about the possibility of GW2 on PS4. I know the GW2 staff member said that they are a PC centered company (highlighting that it would be unlikely) but he also said they like to keep their options open.

I’m usually a console player but I was drawn to PC purely by and for the awesomeness of this game ALONE. I think it would literally be the best thing since sliced bread if this game came to the PS4 at some point (kind of like DC Universe Online).

I would personally recruit enough people into the PS4 version of the game to fill up an entire world lol (seriously XD).

Anyway what do you guys think.
