Is Guild Wars 2 the only MMO you’ll ever need?

If you need to keep busy until then wait for Skyrim in November, I know I am.

Guild Wars 2, well the rest of the Guild Wars 2 discussion forum know my thoughts on this and I just can't wait, but I will.

No other MMO has me hooked like this game. Here's to playing it before the world end in December next year... xD

I just did an unspeakable in my broeks! I was excited about GW2 and have been following the developments, but I knew nothing of the PVP environment. I am sure this new PVP format will disappoint hardcore fans, but it really seems like a much more fun and enjoyable casual experience. It's great that you don't really need to be part of a clan. You can simply jump in and start blowing stuff up.

The PvE also sounds incredible. I played WoW for about 10hours, got to level 20 and nearly wanted to commit suicide having wasted those 10 hours of my life. My friend asked me to go to Spar and buy 12 hotdog rolls...i nearly had a seizure.

HAHA! I am a master at wasting my life, but I tend to waste it on stuff that interests me and that are fun.

WOW wasn't fun, EVER! I still regret getting myself to level 62. I have never done so many get me X of Y quests in my life -.-

Here are my final thoughts to Craptivision Blizzard - FUCK YOU GUYS!

On the contrary, I believe the GW2 (same as GW1) will seperate those who have skill from those who only relied on their gear to win. This should please true PvP'ers. At the same time, the more casual players won't have to spend weeks/months grinding away to get their gear up to spec.

The beauty of GW PvP is the fact that, while you gear can make a difference to your PvP experience, it is only if you gear complements your skill set-up - thus expanding your PvP strategy outside the realm of just hitting things. Planning your skill-bar, setting and slotting your gear correctly, planning your casting times and orders, all of it is part of PvP. Whereas other MMOs (Aion is by far the biggest culprit in my books) everybody has the same skills by a certain level, and the deciding factor is gear.
