Subject: Is Guild Wars 2 any good?

I've never cared for MMOs, I'm not very social, but it looks pretty cool.

I'm hoping it will drop in price some time in the next few months and was wondering whether anyone, preferably someone who also doesn't much care for MMOs, enjoyed it and would recommend it.

'Makes me wonder how 'social' Destiny is going to be, now we speak of MMOs.
I'd like some 'me time' as well.

Guild Wars 2 = 'very good'

It's not my thing, so I'm not getting it.

I didn't particularly like it. I got to 65 in a week and never touched it again.
Levelling is far too easy and it doesn't bring anything new to the MMO genre.

I'm loving it so far. It's my first MMO, so I didn't k ow what to expect from it apart from the pre-release videos, but I'm having a blast.

I play solo OP too, but you do meet people along the way. There is a Flood guild, but seems like nobody reps it nymore apart from me.

Let me know if you do get it and you want someone to play with.

Thanks! If I end up getting it I'll keep an eye out for that guild.

It's my first MMO besides the brief time I spent in the original GW and I think it's amazing. I'd definitely recommend that you get it!

Spent 3000+ hours on GW1, and whilst nothing will compare to the original, Guild Wars 2 is a great game.

My GOTY for sure.

I'm also in the Flood Guild and I rep it close to everyday. I never see anybody else on.

It's a theme park MMO with no end game content (scaling doesn't count), typical MMOesque quests and virtually no teamwork.

I played it during the beta and though my experience was short, I felt as though I'd already seen all the game had to offer.

It might be great if you're looking for a casual MMO to waste a few hours on the occasion in but otherwise, not so much.
