Should I get it?
Reply
Posted 2005-09-17, 12:16 AM
I've been thinking about it lately, and I really can't decide whether or not I want to get it. I played WoW before and loved it, but from what I hear about this game the world is "instanced" where when you go out and fight stuff you're either by yourself or in a party. That is one thing that is kinda keeping me away from this game.

Also, this game is free to play, correct? I've heard that you just pay for the software and then you can play on their servers for free. That definately sounds better than the $72.94 every 6 months I was paying to play WoW.

Another thing, will my computer be able to run it? I ran WoW fine as long as I didn't keep it on really high quality or anything.

Vote now, and give me good reasons, and you might see the King of the Amazons playing on Guild Wars sometime soon!

-If it's able to run WoW it will run GW.
-If you like PVP this is your game.
-It takes actual skill to become good in this game.
-The balancing between classes is the best I've seen in any other RPG so far.
-No monthly fee.
-Instanced zones arent that bad, it just adds another difficulty for your team, because if everyone dies in a mission, you fail and return to the outpost where you can meet up with others or just try again.

Hell ya man, I love the PvP even more then UO pvp back in the day. The graphics rock and run smoothly and the way everything is instanced turned me off at first, but you will understand in due time that it rocks.

i definetly say no, DO NOT get gw, IMO worst game ive played. The pvp sucks, altough diablo was almost all BM dueling, it was far superior then gw's, theres no time to talk shit when you completely own something

you cant make a completely godly character, @ lvl 20 (highest lvl get there in 15min) you can go back to ascalon (1st area you start) and still die. Unlike diablo, if you even have a 1/2 decent character you go to a1 norm, ha gl dieing (it would take skill to die)

but yea, i say no...if i could go back and change when i bought it i would without a 2nd guess

Just about everything you said you don't like about the game is what I like about MMOs. They AREN'T diablo, and that wins in my book.

If that's the case with you, then by god, you must be absolutely shite at this!

At lvl 20 you can go out into Ascalon and wipe the whole place clean! Fight for an hour and you'll be stuck for enemies to fight as they've all been killed!

Response, right...sorry.

This game is great. It's the first MMORPG that I've played and I'm absolutely loving it. There are so many possibilities with characters that anyone who plays it will have a different gaming experience to the next guy. If you're computer can support them, then the graphics are fucking amazing!

I can't compare it to any other game as I haven't played any other game online. The one thing I can say is "BUY THIS GAME!". You'll love it.

I have been thinking about getting this game to. I think I might do it, because I hear its better than WoW from some people. I also really liked UO so I guess it kinda is in the same catagory from what I hear.

Also, is there anything else i need to get if i buy it? Like how D2 has the expansion but you also need the normal D2 discs before you can install expansion.

The game is amazing... so well balanced. In PvP tourny, every class has its place. I mean you could be fine against a group and one group has a necro, and that necro has that one spell that breaks your party because you didnt plan on fighting a necro. EVERY class has a place. Unlike games like Diablo2 and shit where one class(1.09 Druids) sucked.

There isnt any UBER godly items which is what I like. You work hard for the small advantage, but more so for your skill.

Give me reasons. Your opinion means nothing to me without reasons.
