Talking About Games: Guild Wars 4th Year Anniversary Interview

Guild Wars is celebrating its fourth anniversary this weekend, four years since its unusual business model hit the scene. Since then, they’ve released two stand-alone campaigns, one expansion, and are now hard at work on the sequel. It’s cool that they’ve made it this far, accounting for the fact that lack one thing you expect from AAA MMORPGs: a subscription fee.

So, in honor of outlasting pretty much every MMO that was released AW (after WoW), we’ve had a talk with one of Guild War’s community managers, Regina Buenaobra, about how Guild Wars got where it was, what it’s doing to celebrate, and where it is going.
