Talk about your favorite expansion, favorite builds, and favorite classes in this thread.

Personally I think Prophecies (the original) is the best out of them all, but they're all good.

There's a lot of GW threads going around, maybe we can reduce it to just this single thread if possible.

If your a real graphics whore, yes.

Wait... What? What part of playing Guild Wars makes you a graphics whore? The game's specs aren't even that high.....

people just say they like guild wars better because it has better graphics and what not and in reality they are just to cheap and ignorant to buy WoW

it's a fun game. id buy it if i were you, the graphics are good, the gameplay is original (IMO), and the community is pretty nice.

Why? Because everyone playing Guild Wars should really be playing a game where stats is directly increased by playing time instead of playing style and the combat systems is so straight foward you know precisely what to expect from a playing just be looking at his class?

While im let to give BC a try, it sounds to me that Ironically WoW's Core PvP rewards system will be entirely inspired by Guild Wars, I even suspect the areas in which Guild Wars superseeds WoW will become even more apparent when multiple design pitholes appear in the arena match ups that GW completly avoided.

Imagine that, some people prefer to play a game that doesn't require a monthly subscription. I enjoy Guild Wars because it can be played casually, you don't have to put up with being ganked, corpse camped, having drops ninja'd, competing with other groups for mobs, standing in line for hours on end just to get in an instance, etc. I also enjoy it because the PvP system requires so much thought, you can't win a battle simply based on the fact that your armor and weapons are better than someone else's. Also, next time you want to flame someone based on their choice of game, don't. Nobody wants to hear it, and it gets you reported.

you GW guyz get offended so easily u just gotta like chill ^^ but ye i used to play GW i played for like a month got to like lvl 17 and got really bored and stoped and then kept buying games and getting bored it was a waste of money i played wow for like 6 months got epiced out and had upwards of 1100 hours played but in the end it saved me money kuz thats all i played i didn't waste money on a bunch of games i didn't play so ye lol imo wow is worth the money and i know you guys are gonna say oooo well u weren't lvl 20 you don't know half the game or w/e but i had friends who were lvl 20 and they play wow now and think its better

[amorpheous]

you GW guyz get offended so easily u just gotta like chill ^^

The same could be said for WoW players...

There's a separate sub-forum for WoW players. Go praise its merits there. This is a Guild wars thread. Keep it that way. There will be no further bashing of people's choice of games in this thread (or anywhere else for that matter) otherwise warnings will be handed out.

[bl1Nk]

away from all of the pointless arguing...

IMO, Prophecies>NF>Factions in overall story and gameplay

Again IMO, Factions>NF>Prophecies in PvP (mainly due to AB in Factions)

Although Dervishes pwn...

[Eogris]

Yeah thats what I thought when I heard the whole level cap idea hopefully its much better then what it sounds like on paper and dosn't ruin the game.

Well i got Nightfall...and i dont like it one bit, i did'nt realise it was so much like an RPG theres little interaction with other people WoW is better imo if your looking for an MMO, if your looking for an MMO i dont think Guild Wars is a good idea.

this is true

i like to call gw an mmo but i guess its not, its more of just an online rpg similar to D2. (where the citys are chat channels)

[Ak-Sniper]

Guild wars does remind me of diablo even though the 2 games look way diffrent. But the hole thing with identifying items and stuff. Well I guesse Arena net was founded by blizzared employ's
