What are these first person words you speak of?

Is it worth it?

Been watching some videos on it, and it certainly looks unique, and seems like it'd be fun... but for how long? Is it worth the price?

Teh puma just feels somewhat cautious about getting it because MMO's only seem to last but so long when it comes to that "wow" factor.

Is it worth what? Money? Time? -blam!-es and hoes? I'm not sure.

Have not played it but it looks really good.

They say it might come come to consoles. I hope this is true.

Teh puma left it at a general question to be taken as a general question.

All of the above.

Well it's hard to say, if you're into MMO's then Guild Wars 2 is the best of the bunch, honestly. Coming from someone who was one of the only 40 people with access to the first closed beta. And every single closed and open beta after that. Then the whole game.

And all for freeeeeeeeeee

I have a friend who plays it on a daily basis. It's not my kind of game to be honest, but he looked like he was having fun playing the game. He didn't complain about much with it.

Guild Wars 2 brings nothing new to the MMO genre, it has a weak end-game, which is what MMO's should be about.
If you've played any other MMO before it, I do not recommend it. If you haven't you may enjoy it.

If you have palyed a game without an abysmal end game then steer clear. This game is fun, but other mmos still do end game way better. The dungeons in GW2 are a complete chore.

It was alright but the endgame is pretty stale.

  • 12.15.2012 9:01 PM PDT

I'm still enjoying it.

Arena net is constantly pumping out new content for the game, so far on a monthly basis. And it's all free - no subs. So you can come and go as you please.

I'm not at the endgame yet, so can't comment on that. But I know a lot of people who were disappointed with it are now pleased as a lot of content has been added, in terms of new progressive dungeons and specialised armor.

Is it worth £40? Definitely. I'm on about 200+ hours so far and loving it.

Except you know, the basic combat.

GW2 is a much more engaging game to play compared to WoW where you just watch cool down timers.

But it do.

Yes! Oh god yes! It is super fun, but the game really shines with friends. Lucky for you, floodians made a guild lead by lonepaul.

Haven't really planned on joining guilds anyway. Something about Guilds usually seems so... off putting, not sure exactly why though.

And to the others that have said the end game isn't great, is it really that bad? Bed enough that the game isn't worth a buy? Because teh puma has never really seen MMO's as end game oriented titles, but apparently it seems to be a big deal to people that have played it. :S
