Guild wars is for broke people I guess. No monthly fee. The game bored me personally. Now I'm a die hard WoW gamer. Guild wars has no appeal whatsoever. Hopefully they change the riverdancing animations of the enchanters and get some large framed fight types in there. Looks like all the people on the game are starved...
I don't understand some of the criticism of GW. To me it's clearly an MMORPG ... I don't even see any room to argue about it. It has ALL the classic elements of every other MMORPG. All it does is take a bit of a different approach on some things. Heck, people keep clammoring for some innovation, so here you have it. This is the only game I've played lately that makes me feel like I'm playing an MMORPG but also makes me feel that things are a bit different. As I've said before, I don't see this as being a heavyweight game that I could put 3 hours an evening into for years like I do EQ2 and like I did in EQ1, but I absolutely play to buy it for my change of pace game. I know plenty of adults playing it. Why? Because it's just plain ole good fun. What's not to like.
BTW, you people who keep saying it's free just aren't paying attention or can't (or won't) read the English language. It just has a different payment model ... very interesting if you ask me.

First of all, not everybody is as 'Rich' as you are. Some people have to worry about other things like House rent, bills and food. Not everybody can get easy good life jobs and yet have so much to spend around.
Anyway, as argued earlier, the monthly fee is not there, but its being done in a different way, like expansions. Of course it would still be cheaper than other MMORPG. Well, if the game really is for broke people, then I admire Arenanet for having such a kind heart to let 'broke' people like myself to enjoy this game and will play it.
