Known for it's unprecedented solid, organized, competitive PvP experience allied with a friendly but also extensive and satisfying PvE, Guild Wars was launched at 2005 and has been out there for almost 8 years. Since the arrival of it's big brother though, Guild Wars 2, the game has been abandoned by it's creators - Arena Net - which led to Community itself make a Open Letter, asking nothing more than a Kickstarter Project to revitalize the game! What's interesting though it's that they are redeeming ArenaNet of any financial commitment.
The game, which has launched in early access, has been in development for years with more than 3,000,000 wishlists on Steam.
"The Spain-based indie games publisher Firenut Games and Granada-based (Spain) indie games developer Trigger the Monster, today announced with great joy and thrill that their dark fantasy adventure/management game “Search of Light” (AKA SOL), is now available for PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, and the Nintendo Switch)." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Game Rant Writes "Balancing brutality and comfort is tough for any game, let alone a Soulslike, but Another Crab’s Treasure proves capable of supporting both."
Says a lot about the quality of GW2
So this game flopped? From what I gathered it looked like the next best thing after all the hype videos and how everyone was saying it was different to the typical MMO.
And yes I know what my name is and the image in it, I just like the design and name.
The game is doing very well but from what I hear, it's a much different game from GW1. I guess the original fans want to rekindle an old flame. Nothing wrong with that of course.
I never played GW1 (I was stuck up WoW's ass for 5 years), but I thoroughly enjoy GW2.
Still, if this goes anywhere, I'd like to give it a shot, providing I can get something like a demo or free test period up front.
