Great polls, I enjoyed voting, but couldn't bring myself to chose one in the last case since I enjoyed them all so much. I really had to think about these, and was a bit surprised to see how fond my memories of Factions are. Two things really stand out for me from that expansion. First, the Jade Sea - when me and my group first came to this area we were actually stunned at how impressive it was (we must have been amoung the first one percent to have seen it). The second thing I really remember was the elite mission The Deep, it was so fun and yet so hard that it was nice to be challeneged like that from GW.
Some choices were hard to make. There were aspects of each campaign I really enjoyed but overall Prophases would be my favorite. Through out each campaign you saw so many improvements
Here's hoping Anet takes their time with GW 2 so that lightening can strike twice!
In the last one (worst overall game experience) I ended up voting Factions because I used to have a love/hate relationship with factions even if EotN was the only part that was disappointing regarding mission content.
Still nice to think back when we only had prophecies skills and professions and Thunderhead Keep was "Wammo Central" with a lot of stranded warriors who couldnt find a group - And monks going on strike
We dont need casuals in our games!!! Errm... Well we DO need casuals to fund and populate our games - But the games should be all about "hardcore" because: We dont need casuals in our games!!! (repeat ad infinitum)
Picked Nightfall on everyone except Environment where I consider Prophecies to be far superior, especially the snowy mountains part. Overall I think Nightfall is simply the best and most enjoyable campaign; it offers the best missions, story line (in my opinion) and is just more fun.
I like EOTN but Prophecies by far is the best. Good story, missions were fun and some more challenging like Thunderhead Keep and the Ring of Fire missions. The Shiverpeaks is by far the best looking area of Prophecies and maybe all of Guild Wars

I liked the Jungle the most :P like the wilds mission and aurora glades..

LOL That was a fun time. I could appreciate the new classes added in each expansion but IMO PvP in GW was at it's best when we only had Propheses Professions/Skills. It had a much more balanced feel especially in GVG.
FWIW when the monks went on strike for THK my monk would run that mission just to break the strike. I never thought it was fair that one class determined the success or failure of a mission. Anet fixed this with hybrid healing classes in the other expansions though.
I miss my monk. Probably the most fun I've ever had in a game like this.
I agree with the majority in most cases - Prophecies simply is the best overall. Factions, however, has the best soundtrack and Nightfall the most fun missions. Apart from that, Prophecies owns the other campaigns. My personal "worst" would be Factions.

Well personally for me the worst add was perma shadow form and smite assas. Those build ruin pvp and pve (ecto rate dropped, everyone could run drok run now and smite assas kill everything)
Nice polls. Actually made us think hard before making choices. Every cahpter has its strengths and weaknesses (weakest being Factions!). But mostly Prophecies took all the + votes.
* I felt sad at the the desolation of Ascalon...
* When the King exiled a certain-someone (don't wish to spoil it for newcomers), I actually wanted to stand by the King's side and protect Ascalon instead....
* I was shocked when a certain-someone died (don't wish to spoil it for newcomers)...
* I felt the harsh glare of the sun across the destruction the charr caused... as I explored... the heat from the burning pyres with dark smoke billowing towards the skies.... the atmosphere + music + casual urgency = amazing.

Prophercies all the way apart from factions being the worst

Best music for me was the music in the desert :P
Like the polls lol!
Prophecies and Eotn where my main answers. Well Factions got my worse vote.

Hello my old friend.
Nightfall got most my votes
altho Prophecies has the most diverse environments
I love the Directsong soundtrack to Eye of the North
EQ2 fan sites
The soundtrack of eotn is nice but I love the soundtrack for the crystal desert more :P
In other words the soundtrack of Prophecies, since the Crystal Desert's tracks are part of the Prophecies soundtrack and not a soundtrack of its own.
I choose Prophercies,it's the best.
prophecies show cased the best the game had to offer
Factions was huge disappointment
Nightfall was average
EOTN brought the grind in the game
