Funny thing is, when playing just about any game there is out there, you can at almost any time stop and ask yourself, "What the hell am I doing spending my time doing this for?"
Nice thing about guildwars is you can "quit" and come back and everything you had is still there . . . at least for now. It's the beauty of buying the game and then no monthly fees. I've lost interest a few times and come back. No big deal . . .
I don't even feel like I get behind too much simply because you are right. There's not a heck of a big difference between any level 20 character after the first week or two. I think that's the beauty of it. I can just come back and jump right in. Nice.
If you haven't quit guildwars once, you should go ahead and quit for a short while. Then come back and you will see one big thing that sets this game apart.
I had one break forced on me before (lack of a computer) and the one I am on now (still logged about twice in 3 weeks) and I find myself already missing the people in my guild which I was co-leader of. Like you said though, I never feel left behind and the meta-game doesn't move that fast so I don't worry about PvP. I know the build that I use was successful when I left and will still be successful when I jump in and play a few rounds.
