Now they are making GW2 with a full open world ,then yes i agree it will seriously rock. It already has a vast player base and being free to play other than the price of the box,really gives it that edge.
SWTOR just shouts...linear gaming to me.As of now all i am seeing is KOTOR3 with multiplayer add on.Bioware really need to stop spouting on about voice overs and stories,instead show us the mmorpg elements of thie game.
People were saying the same thing before Guild Wars came out. I liked GW and so did many others but it didn't dominate the market.
1. For god's sake mmo gamers, enough with the analogies. They're unnecessary and your comparisons are terrible, dissimilar, and illogical.
2. To posters feeling the need to state how f2p really isn't f2p: Players understand the concept. You aren't privy to some secret the rest are missing. You're embarrassing yourself.
3. Yes, Cpt. Obvious, we're not industry experts. Now run along and let the big people use the forums for their purpose.

Im waiting for this game for this reason, but wouldn´t go so fanbot about it. I would expect and Average mmorpg (like the ones out there) just FTP wich means a large portion of gamers 2ND game, but still not enought to beat "the big spoon feeding" mmo, i would see it beating ranks with lotro, aoc, aion and such.
now: GW2 (11 80s).
Dark Souls 2.
future: Mount&Blade 2 BannerLord.
"Bro, do your even fractal?"
Recommends: Guild Wars 2, Dark Souls, Mount&Blade: Warband, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning.
Most people say it is not a mmorpg because Anet said so, read it in the Guild Wars FAQ
Any yeah GW2 is supposed to be a mmorpg this time round, but you don’t know how the cash shop will be like (hopefully like DDO)
But one think I liked about GW was the light fantasy (HUMANS ONLY!!!)...no elves dwarves and all that crap but GW2 won’t be the same which is disappointing

So the fanboy hype begins.

EDIT: Wait, did he admit in his first sentence that it would be crappy, dumb, stupid, WoW-like, babyish and themepark? "Because You dont have to pay monthly to play like Most other Stupid,Crappy, WoW Like, Dumb, Babyish, Theme Park MMORPGs." My god, he did. The only thing he uses to justify it being dominant is the fact you don't have to pay monthly.
DOUBLE EDIT: Man, the internet has worn my sarcasm detector down so much.

huh?
This game is still in its creation phase and nowhere near even beta, how can anyone say how good it will be?
If a good game is defined by how much it cost then there are plenty of apparently awesome games already out there.
Very pretty pictures and awesome promises.
I hope it lives up to all that, for it really does look cool.
Now, if it actually releases with all that and plays as advertised, THEN I will get hyped up.
Until then, it is just pretty pictures and excellent ideas.
it actually sucks to not make big MMO´s P2P, i like to pay some bucks a month for a good MMO. gives the company a good budget which they can (Partially) use to invest even more in the game. if WoW was free to play it wouldve died a long time ago...
He's taking the piss.

I really want Guild Wars 2 to succeed as well. My best memories from any "MMO" were fighting against other guilds alongside a closely knit group of IRL friends. If Guild Wars 2 can at least deliver the same level of in-depth PvP that Guild Wars provided, then this game will be a gigantic hit. Everything else is just icing on the cake; the new races, added customization, persistent universe, improved graphics, you name it.
Regardless, GW2 could easily be the one MMO I'm most hyped for. So despite the overdramatic introduction, I can't help but agree with tro44_1 when he hopes this game will dominate (or at least put a dent in) our monopolized industry.

Lets hope its a lot better than the first one.

You never know these days. With the amount of people riding the short bus lately.
This ^
The first time I heard "GW2", I immediately thought, "It'll probably be crap like the first one."
But now that it's open world and better graphics, I honestly can't wait.
You do know they are keeping the competitive side of it instanced, like guild versus guild matches, and most likely will have arena systems for small group play.
i thought i read there werent gong to be henchies and heroes on gw2
Games i'm playing right now...

I didn't like the first one which means I have low expectations for the 2nd one. Hopefully since I am not hyped about the game, when it does come out and I give it a try, I will be pleasantly surprised.
Over exaggerating there I see. I don't think Guild Wars 2 will dominate the market. I see it being sucessful with a good following, but not overtake the whole market. Don't have high expectations or you're just going to be disappointed, keep it low and test it out in beta then see what you think of it.
I'm looking forward to GW2, but keeping my expectations low.
Age of reason and progression.

First one is fantastic, sorry you didn't like it.
It wont dominate the market. It will be good and I will probably play it though. It will take a game with a budget of about $200-$300 million dollars to dominate this market like WoW has and even then its no guarentee. No matter what your playstyle is and what you like in MMOs at least 3 out of 10 people who play MMO's will totally hate what you like.
