At the recent Games Convention 2007 in Leipzig, Germany, ArenaNet Co-founder Jeff Strain presented a speech entitled "How to Create a Successful MMO".
After 20 years of ongoing service, the original Guild Wars still makes good on a promise it made that no other MMORPG has been able to truly mimic.
Been there since day 1, and the first beta, same with GW2. 20 years and they never said oh now we need to charge a monthly fee, and they only made Guild Wars no other games. I'm going to assume GW3 will have the same business model.
I got to 50 I believe but never got into it very much.It was fun but all of my friends were still playing EQ. Good to see it’s still going though.
The release date and other details have been revealed for The Complete Art of Guild Wars.
Guild Wars is an MMORPG that has been in maintenance mode with no official support for years, but the game's economy is fairly stable, most PvP activities are still accessible and even Auction House-like services exist - thanks to bots.
He touched on a lot of good points!
