"Guild Wars 2 has been one of the most anticipated MMORPG games to hit the PC this year. Since I haven’t played the first Guild Wars, I wasn’t sure what to expect with this game aside from the promised no-subscription to play and the dynamic events that happens frequently in the world of Tyria. Having played several MMORPG games like Star Wars: The Old Republic, World of Warcraft, Rift and Tera – almost all of them have in common, thus playing all four makes it seems like I’m playing the same game. With Guild Wars 2, I somewhat see some similarities but in a very good way." - JPS
Wccftech talked to Guild Wars 2 Game Director Josh Davis about the learnings from the Secrets of the Obscure expansion and what's coming to the MMORPG.
The "slippery slope" debate has started, now we wait to see what ArenaNet does.
"ArenaNet and NCSOFT are today very happy and excited to announce that they have just released the "Secrets of the Obscure" expansion for their award-winning and critically acclaimed MMORPG "Guild Wars 2"." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Anet also announced the 5th expansion. "We’ve already started applying lessons from the development of Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure to our fifth expansion, which we expect to be released next year." From their site, been with this game since 1st beta, and announcing the 5th expansion so soon, the game is doing very well, plus the graphics are improved a bit now that it's on DX11🙃
GW2 craps all over World of BOREcraft!
Sure Wow is a GREAT game and WoW has it's OWN VERY very VERY Large community..........BUT
I see Guild Wars 2 and Tera as the MMO's that push the Fantasy MMORPG genre FORWARD and bring in NEW Gamers to the Genre and WoW is just not MY cup of tea but "I guess a couple people like it". lol
I had ZERO interest in Fantasy MMORPG until Tera and Guild Wars 2 and i think MILLIONS of other gamers would agree!
The few changes here and there to the gameplay was enough to excite me the "If it isn't a FPS I don't want to play it Gamer" into spending countless hours Leveling up in a Fantasy MMORPG!
GW2 is AWESOME and it's just the beginning of many years of great support and fresh content to come!
$60 bucks well spent (if I even paid that much for my early start pre-Order)
I just wish it was coming to the Next Gen consoles.
i bought guild wars 2 yesterday and im loving the game its actually my first mmorpg and im having a blast the community is great theres always people that wanna help me after they find out im new to the genre
