PSU != GW

so please stop saying "PSU IS LIKE GW"

well it is isn't it?

It is 100% instanced and so is GW.

Which btw I think sucks monkey balls. You know, those little balls monkeys play with, they are red I think.

Course I never did see swords in GW the size of a house which is ALWAYS a clear cut sign of anime monkey ball sucking which is clearly a part of PSU....or is that POS....oh well, same thing.

I'm getting pretty annoyed with people who state "z0mg, PSU is instanced, so it must be like Guild Wars". World of Warcraft and Auto Assault both have an open world, are they the same? Heck No.

the gameplay of PSU is very diffrent from GW.

The-Raven, I like eastern styled equipment ala Lineage 2 etc. much more than the western ones. There are aspects of the eastern game play I dont enjoy and aspects of the western gameplay that I hate. But as far as graphics go Eastern mmos are number one in my view. Obviously you dont agree but I feel you could have said it in a more eloquent/appropraite sort of way. I wonder though, if you are so against this game why are you browsing its forums?

it may be instanced but you can jion a group in the middle of a quest unlike in gw

PSU is like PSO. GW is more tactical and this has more button smashing and slightly less opened-area maps.

A lot different. Only similarity is instancing.

I agree and disagree.

I agree that PSU isn't GW. But I disagree that they are not similar. Sure they aren't the same. One is SciFi based and one is Fantasy based. Sure that just because they are both fully instanced that doesn't make them the same.

But when you classify MMOs, they are very similar. The both allow many people to meet up in towns/outpost and group in small groups to enter in instance areas. They are both CoRPGs.

That said while they are similar they really shouldn't be compared as much as they are. It's like comparing EQ2 with WoW. Sure the are similar but they really don't compare.

I think really the only way to compare them is to say that they are in a similar category of RPG that are both Online and allow multiple players to meet up to quest.

Their biggest difference is their play style though. Guild Wars is the most strategic game I've ever played (MMORPG that is), while this is kind of...actiony? Also, if you really played Guild Wars, it's pretty much centered on PvP. But yeah, they do have forts between missions and stuff. They just play completely different from each other.

anybody who says GW and PSU are the same don't know what they're talking about. Also saying a game sucks based on the fact that you don't like the asian designs is ignorant. This is a totally different type of game and is more action based. GW is more complicated with all the spells/attacks and PVE is secondary. Also the fighting is a lot slower than PSU but needs more thought put into attacks. This game is more of a hack and slash... This might sound boring but it isnt. There are many different weapons and dphoton arts you can use and switch mid combat. In PSU you can manually dodge attacks. If the mob is going to swing, or is casting magic you can avoid it by moving. Anyway don't knock the game untill you tried it.

I think it is safe to say GW = Strategic PvP Centered Fantasy CoRPG while PSU = Action PVE Centered SciFi CoRPG
