Guild Wars

[Mythix]

I just bought the game today, looking for anyone else that has been playing it.

My account name is darkwire@dark-wire.net but my character name is Mythix Of Darkwire

Let me know if you play it or not!

[Towelie]

hmm you shouldve replied to my old thread, but anyways my character is called "Herectic Anthem"

From what I've heard, this game is blast for about a month, and then it gets really old. *shrug*

I heard the same, but from when I got the game ~3 days ago, to when it came out, they've added a lot more content and missions, its really neat, you dont need to buy some expansion kit to go to new levels and missions.

I was hearing this from people a few weeks ago, who'd quit the game a few days before I talked to them.

It's very PvP based, is what they said. I guess that's pretty cool, but I can definitely see it getting old. Battlegrounds in WoW is awesome, but I'm sure I'd get sick of it if that's all there was to do at endgame.

there's two different worlds, roleplaying or you can choose to do PVP.

There's both of those in WoW too :)

Guildwars is like diablo, and WoW is like everquest.  Can you compare diablo with everquest?

While I disagree with your comparison, yes, you can.

Everquest is referred to (by those who have played it) as Evergrind because the game gets extremely redundant and boring towards the end. WoW isn't anything like that.

[Quik]

It's also referred to as EverCrack, which is similar by effect and by name to what WoW enthused patrons experiance/nickname the game.

[Sidoh]

WoW is crack, I'm not denying it. :)

I am extremely enjoying guild wars right now, though its not as complicated level wise as I'd like it to be, it still takes good time to max out, and even after you max out in levels, quests still pop up, even though no experience is rewarded.

[Sidoh]

That's about the same as WoW, except it takes several months (assuming you have an outside life) to get to 60.

The guy I was talking to about Guild Wars at the Technology Forum I went to said he's gotten to 20 (that's what he said the maximum level was) in two days.

[Mythix]

Thats power rushing, that's not playing through the quests, and arenanet does have the capability of setting the level maxout higher, but for some reason they haven't done it yet.

[Sidoh]

Haha. Well yeah. Blizzard does with WoW does too, but I don't think they're going to. They plan on implementing "Hero Classes" later on.

I kind of power rushed on WoW and it still took me a few months to get to 60. :)
