Guild Wars
Anyone on this? I just got a brand new notebook and I'm running it now. It is so awesome, it's ridiculous. Such a great MMORPG and the best thing is that there is no online fee whatsoever.
If anyone owns this, gimme name so I can add. Narcissus spite tour of 2020. I have kids. |

Incedentally, I haven't PVPed much really. Mostly just PVEs. I've done like 19 different characters, so I really haven't gotten to any of the newer areas...

I have it. Necro is way better than i expected it to be. Although, I must admit, having the outside world to only your party makes it feel very separative to other MMORPGs. It is still fucking beautiful though.

It is good, but WoW is 1000000000000000000000000 times better.

One of my friends who plays WoW (and EQ before that) said he much preferred an environment where you had to fight for kills in the world and stuff like that, and constantly watch out for PvP stuff. I kinda understand his point, but at times I really like having the whole world to myself. They do still need to fix some things IMO. I think item drops aren't nearly as good as they could be. I guess I'm so used to Diablo 2 with the unbelievable amount of combintations. I just identify items in hope they are precious in GW. And I also think its kinda wierd that you can't wear armor drops, but can only salvage from them. Salvaging is pretty cool though. Been using all my storage space to save up.

http://guildwars.com/faq/default.html Game Details What kind of game is Guild Wars? Guild Wars is a global online roleplaying game. Players can engage in cooperative group combat, in single player adventures, or in large head-to-head guild battles. Guild Wars is a mission-based game set in a stunning 3D fantasy world that offers excellent support for guilds. Because the team that developed Guild Wars had experience creating successful online game series such as Warcraft, StarCraft and Diablo, the members used their familiarity with the complex issues surrounding online games to create a game that is both easy to learn and compelling to play long term, and yet does not require players to spend hundreds of hours slogging through the preparation just to get to the fun bits.Is Guild Wars an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game)? Guild Wars has some similarities to existing MMORPGs, but it also has some key differences. Like existing MMOs, Guild Wars is played entirely online in a secure hosted environment. Thousands of players inhabit the same virtual world. Players can meet new friends in gathering places like towns and outposts where they form parties and go questing with them. Unlike many MMOs, when players form a party and embark upon a quest in Guild Wars, they get their own private copy of the area where the quest takes place. This design eliminates some of the frustrating gameplay elements commonly associated with MMOs, such as spawn camping, loot stealing, and standing in a queue in order to complete a quest. Guild Wars takes place in a large virtual world made up of many different zones, and players can walk from one end of the world to the other. In Guild Wars much of the tedium of traveling through the world has been eliminated. Players can instantly return to any safe area (town or outpost) that they have previously visited just by clicking on it in the world overview map. |

Yeah I looked all that up to make sure. I guess other places seem to bill it just like another MMORPG when it isn't. And I can see why. There aren't lots of huge differences.

I did every quest I could find. You get lots of experience from doing both parts of all the missions too. I was 7 or 8 when I left pre-searing. Right now I have no quests to do and one mission, so I'm kinda struggling to find things to do. The missions get rather tedious, especially when I play with henchman 90% of the time.

9 IMO. I really enjoy questing on RPGs and this stays true to single player characteristics like questing and advancing your spells, xp... but it implements the MMORPG element. It's awesome.
Best part... free online play. |

I'll get back to you on that rating. Like I play it alot and it is addictive, but I really think they need more levels. I'm only really starting to get impressive items and stuff.
