Guild Wars 2 first beta weekend: hands-on impressions

Spoiler: I’m sold

[PaPaRaZZ!]

Yep James. I had plenty of fun this weekend. To get this game and play for free without monthly subscription, might just kill WoW. Can't wait for the next BWE. Still have to test 1 or 2 other characters, but sofar i'm sold on the elementalist and necro.

Lol James, Love the spoiler. One spoiler you actually don't mind

Well said and I agree with most points.

Pre-order purchases actually do not get to play the beta, only pre-purchases do.

Dodging is meaningless in the early areas, but when I was fighting level 14 Ettins I had to use dodge regularly for their power attack or risk being one shot killed.

I've also seen events fail and then followed the chain specific to failing it, which I found to be quite awesome.

All in all I think this is going to be the MMO to beat when it's released, but there's still plenty to be done from Anet before then.

Had a lot of fun this weekend. Still a lot to do/fix but overall it was really fun.
Heres hoping that they are ahead a lot more with the overall game than what they gave us, cause I don't want to wait anymore
